About Me

Sarena Teal Inspiration

Hi, I’m Sarena — and I help you find the colors that make you look and feel your best.

If you’ve ever felt like some colors just work while others don’t, you’re not imagining it. Your natural coloring follows a pattern, and once you understand it, getting dressed becomes dramatically easier.

Since starting this blog in 2015, I’ve helped 100+ clients discover their best colors through personalized color analysis.

My goal is simple: to take the guesswork out of color so you can feel confident in what you wear every day.


How It Started

My love of color started early — the kind of childhood where crayons were carefully arranged in perfect color order.

I also collected paint chips every time I went to hardware stores with my parents (they’re contractors, so this happened often). What started as a small collection turned into a full-blown fascination with how colors work together.

Later, I discovered the book Color Me Beautiful, and everything clicked. Seasonal color analysis opened up a whole new way of seeing color — not just as something beautiful, but something personal.

From that point on, I was analyzing the colors of everything… and everyone.


My Experience

Over the past two decades, I’ve:

  • Selected paint colors and color schemes for dozens of homes
  • Helped clients choose flattering makeup shades
  • Worked as a Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay since 2002
  • Provided personalized color consultations for clients around the world

Today, I combine all of that experience to help you understand your own coloring — in a way that actually works in real life.
