WHAT YOU’LL DISCOVER
More than finding your season.

ABOUT TORIE
Your personal color consultant
Hi, I’m Torie. I was born in Japan and lived in the United States for about 35 years before returning to Japan.
Having lived and worked across different cultures, I understand that personal style, beauty, and the way we use color can feel different from one country to another.
My approach to personal color is practical and flexible. I do not believe your season should limit what you wear. Instead, I help you understand which colors flatter you and how to use them in a way that still feels like you.
Sessions are available in both English and Japanese.

EXPLORE HIRAKATA
Make a day of your visit
If you are visiting from outside the area, you may enjoy exploring Hirakata before or after your session.
Hirakata is a relaxed city located between Osaka and Kyoto. The studio is near Makino Station.
If you would like to explore the area before or after your session, you will find cafés, restaurants, and shops around Hirakata-shi Station. You can also visit Hirakata-juku, a historic part of the city. Kuzuha is another nearby option, with a large shopping mall, cafés, and restaurants.
I am happy to share a few local suggestions when your booking is confirmed.
BEFORE YOUR SESSION
How to prepare
Please come with little or no makeup, if possible, so I can clearly see how different colors interact with your natural skin tone.
You are welcome to bring a few clothing items, accessories, or makeup products if there is anything you would like advice on.
