When love for the right diagnosis meets that of colour
Personal color analysis is truly the smartest strategy to start with when you begin to reevaluate your wardrobe and style. Wearing the wrong shade can darken your face and accentuate imperfections; wearing the right one can brighten your complexion and soften your features. The science of color perception is simple and tangible for everyone. Let me show you how to determine what most effortlessly flatter you most!
A single session is all it takes to identify the characteristics of the colors that are most harmonious for you. Let me show you how my modern and rigorous approach will allow you find out how to highlight your natural features, simplify your everyday choices, and build a coherent and timeless personal palette that will support you for years to come!

When one's eye perceives differently
They spoke about us...
This summer, as my studio celebrated its first anniversary in July, I had the honour of being featured by La Presse in a video and two articles. As colour analysis continues to gain momentum in Quebec—finally!—I was trusted to help explain what it is and how it works. I also had the pleasure of collaborating with Coup de pouce on two videos and an article exploring the experience of makeup colour analysis.
When I founded Écru, I never imagined in a million years that the adventure would take me this far! I am also so grateful that so many people have put their trust in me. I look forward to seeing what the next year as in store for Ecru as it enters its second year of existence and many projects have been baking. Wishing you all a beautiful end of summer - and thank you for following along and supporting me throughout this wonderful journey.

Meet Catherine, your consultant:
Physician by profession, color analyst by passion
As a family physician trained at McGill University, I founded Écru when I realized that my love for accurate diagnoses could be combined with my passion for color and its thousand shades.
I am proud to be the only color analyst in Quebec formally certified as a Color Curator by Cocory , South Korea's most renowned color analysis institute. I am also certified by the International Image Institute in traditional Western colorimetry, having completed the Color Analysis Mastery course taught by Karen Brunger herself. Combine this with my medical training, and you can trust me to provide detailed explanations and a structured, rigorous approach during your session.
In medicine, we listen to and examine each new patient without presuming any diagnosis in advance to ensure we provide the best possible service. This is the principle I promise to apply when conducting your color analysis, aiming for the most meticulous and precise evaluation possible.

Client testimonials
"I highly recommend Catherine’s services without hesitation! I had a Hybrid Color Analysis consultation with her and absolutely loved the experience. Catherine is an exceptional professional, but above all, she is a genuinely caring, attentive, and deeply kind person. She took all the time needed to analyze my colours, explain the process, and provide excellent guidance throughout the session. Thanks to her, I discovered that I am a Light Spring—a result that was completely different from what I had imagined! Without her expertise, I never would have known. The report she provides is incredibly thorough and informative.
If you are looking for a high-quality color analysis experience delivered with warmth, care, and professionalism, Catherine is the person to see. Thank you again, Catherine!"
