Colour & Chemistry Combined
My Story
I am a scientist who loves colour! At school I studied chemistry, biology and physics to 'A' level, and then completed a Pharmacy degree at Bath University.
I have since worked in the NHS as a senior pharmacist, and continue to do so on a part-time basis in a clinical lead role. I was manager of the Medicines Information Centre at Southampton General Hospital for several years, before becoming Chief Pharmacist for Southampton City Clinical Commissioning Group.
I have always been fascinated by the science of colour. My own House of Colour transformation started in 2005 when a work colleague suggested that we 'go and get our colours done'. I had always wanted to do it, and so my husband bought me a gift voucher for Christmas (take note ladies and gents- it makes a great gift experience !)
It was a most fascinating and enjoyable day, that I still remember clearly many years later.
Shopping trips were immediately transformed into a more enjoyable, focused and less costly affair, with the knowledge that one quarter of the colours were right from me, and the other three quarters were definitely to be avoided.
A little while later I experienced more empowering learning with my Personal Style class and Make-up class.
Now a colour and image consultant in my own right, I have a very rewarding career supporting others to embrace life skills that aren't taught at school.

Testimonials
Had a wonderful and interesting day with Julia, finding out which colours suited me the best. Julia is very welcoming and friendly and it was lovely having a homemade lunch. The whole day was brilliant, and I would recommend this as a lovely gift for someone special, or to treat yourself as it's so beneficial. Now when I go shopping I carry my colour wallet, it has made shopping easier, more fun and has increased my confidence in mixing colours that I know now work for me. Would highly recommend, thank you Julia! .

I had my colours session with Julia some months ago. I loved the experience. Having the colours bring out the best of my skin tone was enlightening, and indeed uplifting. The session itself was also great fun; Julia is a lovely fun person and is completely focussed on her client and making the experience a positive one. Since having my colours session, I've really enjoyed shopping for clothes in my colours; I save a lot of time, and have so much more confidence in the clothes I wear. It's great to know that I will almost always get a compliment just because the colours I wear are MY colours! It almost detracts from having to buy overly priced expensive clothes. I would and do regularly recommend Julia's colours workshop to all around me! Thank you.

Julia explained everything in a clear concise way at the Style Development day. My style was Gamine and she gave me permission to be the 'me' I always have felt myself to be!

Probably the best Christmas gift ever. My session with Julia has changed my life! Julia was brilliant at explaining the science behind colour and then made me feel so special as she assessed my personal colours. I couldn't wait to come home and reinvent my wardrobe. I can shop with ease now and dress with confidence, knowing my clothes look great! Choosing what to wear is so much easier when everything in your wardrobe coordinates. I purchased makeup with my new colours, the quality is brilliant and I love the lipsticks which look so much better than anything I have worn previously.Thank you so much for giving me a new found confidence!
