Prism XII Palette Fans now Available to Buy on My Colour Stylist Website
Anni Wickham
I am very excited that Nikki, the founder of Prism XII has allowed me to start to sell her fans. Nikki trained me and has worked closely with me as I have developed the business and extended the swatch business. Nikki has been selling the fans from the US but since the UK has left the EU it has become harder for her to export and time delays are happening for her clients, so this is a perfect solution for us both.
I already use the fans in the studio and sell them to clients, so this now extends my offer to the website - hurray! Lipstick wallet cards and mini palettes will be next to be available.
Why am I so excited? Because these palette fans are different and have been the base for my selection of swatches for each season, so I work with them all of the time.
In Nikki’s words :
The 70 colours presented in your palette are CORE colours for your seasonal tone.
The 12 seasonal tone palettes have been created using authentic, accurate Munsell colours. They are created using the Hue, Value and Chroma dimensions of all colours that were first identified and notated by Albert Munsell in the late 1800’s.
Each colour in the palette has been taken from one of 10 Munsell Hue pages, known as plates: Red, Red-Purple, Purple-Blue, Blue, Blue-Green, Green, Green-Yellow, Yellow and Yellow-Red.
Each of the seasonal tones logically fits into the Hue plates at a specific level of Value and Chroma. There are no cross-over or combinations. Each colour is unique to it’s individual palette.
Your skin has a Hue (Warm, Cool or Neutral), a Value (Light to Dark) and a Chroma (Bright to Soft/Muted) level. Once these characteristics have been identified, during a personal colour analysis, the colours presented in the palette provided are balanced and harmonised at a similar level on the Value and Chroma scale.
For example, if Dark is the dominant dimension/characteristic required to create harmony with your skin’s undertone, the colours in the palette can all be found in the low Value colours on each of the Hue plates. Likewise, if Soft is the dominant dimension/characteristic of your tone, then all the colors have been chosen from those that have the lowest level of Chroma/Saturation.
The 12 seasonal tone palettes contain only 830 colours of the 1500 Munsell colours available. The colours were objectively chosen to represent the very best colours to be worn by a person with your skin undertone. The colours are the best you can wear, They are the A+ colours for you.
The goal for creating the Prism XII palettes was to select colours based on the Munsell notations that closely match and harmonise with your skin’s undertone in Value and Chroma. The colours in each palette can be measured using a Spectrophotometer to confirm their similar dimensions in Hue, Value and Chroma.
Other palettes on the market may present colours that are not found in the Prism XII palettes. This is due to the fact that they are not accurate or scientifically correct in the Munsell “colour space”.
So, even easier than ever to buy a Prism XII palette fan. Whilst I love them all - I think that the Soft Summer and Soft Autumn palettes are exceptional and by far the best available on the market. The softness and harmony in these two palette fans helps to stop these seasons looking dull and makes them exquisite.
I will update you as soon as the mini wallet cards are available in the shop.
Stay safe
