  • Kitchener Essences can be somewhat of a vague concept because they are so "feeling" based, but there ARE patterns found across the different essences! Here are some common features and traits that can help steer you towards the right direction in figuring out your Essence.

    I had my brows "cleaned up" at a salon once, and it looked so wrong. Absolutely a downgrade in my opinion. I absolutely need the natural "unclean" part of the outer outline of the brow shape.

      Oh, that's another point against me having Natural essence. No matter the trend as long as my eyebrows are cleaned up it's an instant upgrade. Whether it was the 2000s pencil brows, 2010s stencil brows or today's "accentuate your lines" clean girl look. I can't just let them grow without them sticking out on my face like a sore thumb.

    I think the tricky part about pinning down your essences versus your body type is that you only have one body type, whereas most people have a blend of three different essences. The fact that the three are combined in your face makes it more difficult to tell what's what imo.

    • @stylemejenn
      @stylemejenn  6 месяцев назад +10

      100% agree! The blend part really gets me confused

  • @onipot9639

    It's also important to remember that essence is also about how you walk / talk and some aspects of your personality.

    • @florenna
      @florenna 5 месяцев назад +5

      Not really - essences are mainly based on one's face, not walk or personality, in any accurate system that is (like Truth Is Beauty).

    This is oddly a great tool for finding your casting type as an actor, i still dont know my type lol and im honestly the worst at even working out kibbe types but i get mainly cast as femme fatales but also "difficult" leading characters with a lot of differences between them. Due to the lack if interesting features on my face I suspect im a classic, and i have a strong feeling that actors who share the same essence might find themselves been sought out for similar roles but idk

  • @Carrie-sgda

    I think you definitely show an etheral essence due to the space between features , light eyebrows and length in your face with elegance. I also get a sense of calmness and maturity from your face

  • @maddielockridge5093
    @maddielockridge5093 7 месяцев назад +55

    I had the exact same experience as you with Kitchener essences! I could easily find my Kibbe type because there were specific guidelines for each body type, but my essences were harder to pin down because of how intuitive Kitchener’s system is and how much the essences mix and flow into each other. I’m just the kind of person that needs hard and fast rules lol.

  • @SaltofSaturn
    @SaltofSaturn 7 месяцев назад +36

    I LOVE your approach. I took a makeup class for theatre in college and one of the assignments was to do opposite makeup styles on either side of your face and I did “ingenue vs evil Queen” and I absolutely achieved this through contrast level, eyebrows, lip shape, and contouring. So I think that’s exactly it. I don’t think anyone would think I have a dramatic body type but I definitely have dramatic eyebrows and I know I can soften to more of a classic vibe through shaping. Somehow still never fully broke down how that related to essences 😅. Thanks for your work translating and communicating!

    I've actually found Kitchener essences much LESS confusing than Kibbe's system, the latter being confusion-fest all over to me! ;D (I follow Kitchener-based system as laid out by Truth Is Beauty, specifically.) I love how it gives SO much more choice, especially as you can be *any* combination of essences, to me that's just freedom, without any artificial limitations (like Kibbe has)! :) None of us is ever just one thing, honestly, like Kibbe claims. And that's is based on one's face, *not* body, which makes so much more sense. Plus Kibbe is entirely lacking some essences like Ingenue and Ethereal, which are crucial to any great & accurate style system, IMO!

    • @minervarose7664
      @minervarose7664 3 месяца назад

      I LOVE the Truth is Beauty typing system, it's actually what started me off the rabbit hole of style types and seasonal colour analysis! What i love most about her system is how she says we should dress mostly for our face, rather than our body. Which makes so much sense. For instance you can have a very Romantic body type but if you have a very Ingenue face, dressing very sexy can look a bit off. Of course, you can incorporate a few Romantic elements as well, just not dress overtly Romantic. I have not seen that approach taken by any of the other style typing systems, which are all hyper focused on the body proportions.
      I also like how her seasonal colour analysis focuses on how OUR skin reacts against different colours/ chromas/ contrast levels etc. Rather than just saying stuff like "dark hair + dark eyes + warm undertone = Dark Autumn"
      It's a pity she seems to have given up her blog 😞

  • @BrittanyVenti
    @BrittanyVenti 7 месяцев назад +57

    Ethereal is in your face because of the mid length. Your mid face is longer which gives more of that mystical quality. It's not your main one but it is there. Plus you have a slight softness in your coloration. It's not PITCH black it's like you toned the contrast down. Slightly grayish.

      I disagree, her length of the face doesn't have to do with ethereal essence. Jen has a strong jaw/chin area, which clearly points more towards dramatic or natural. If at all, the ethereal essence which some see in her is her lighter eyebrows and lower contrast.

    Hi Jenn! You did my analysis earlier this year and you actually supported what I already know to be true about my essence blend. You shared that cute/delicate, sophisticated/ elegant looks work best for me along with some modern/glamour looks. For reference I have a blend of Classic (40%), Romantic (35%), and Gamine (25%). I loved how I could combine both an analytical and artistic approach and pretty much end up with the same results. Love how we are connecting the dots in these recent videos!

    • @stylemejenn
      @stylemejenn  7 месяцев назад +19

      Hi Laysa! I remember! I had no idea what your essence blend was when I was doing your analysis but seeing it now makes total sense in my head which is so interesting. Seeing how the two approaches actually ended up with similar results gives me more confidence to proceed with creating more deep-dive videos that can connect the dots further. Thank you for this! ❤

  • @zajaiva5
    @zajaiva5 День назад

    I would say you totally have an ethereal essence because (at least how I picture ethereal in my head) your eyes seem to be "withering" away from the center of your face to the outer corners, I don't know how to describe it better than that. It's like taking a quick brush stroke - the most concentrated part is the center and it feathers out to nothing. Including a calm look to the gaze.
    Also that feeling of ethereal that they know something more than us others now. Not like knowledge of experience but more a some kind of inner knowing that comes from some 'otherworldly' place.
    That is how I see ethereal and definitely see that in you.

  • @BodyAndSol96
    @BodyAndSol96 7 месяцев назад +17

    Oh I love seeing your take on the essences. It'll be great to hear more of an "analytical" take from you on this topic, since Kibbe typing is easier for you than the Kitchener system. I'm still very confused with Kibbe, because so often I just can't "see" what makes a person type X instead of type Y or Z. I find the Kitchener essences a lot easier to understand since interpreting the "vibe" of a person and their face/body comes to me much more naturally than analyzing their actual body proportions. So I'm sure I'll gain new insight when I hear a "Kibbe-minded" person like yourself explain the essences!

    I had an easier time with Kitchner than Kibbe. Mainly because I believe that I have a strong Ethereal essence. Kibbe doesn't really make space for Ethereal traits in his system. You get placed in dramatic generally, which is far too harsh for most ethereals. FN and SD fit a little better due to the added softness, but are still not quite right. I am grateful that Kitchner makes room for those of us who don't fit well in the boxes of Kibbe.

    • @florenna
      @florenna 5 месяцев назад +2

    I loved your observation about the eyebrows because I have those EXACT Romantic essence eyebrows and facial configurations. I have very dark slightly arched eyebrows and a bit of sad/doe eyes (not that big though) and full lips. People LOVE a red lip on me as well. I think I might be at least 50% Romantic essence.
    I'm still figuring out the rest of my mix but I think it might be Dramatic (longer middle third, a bit of a prominent slightly squarish jawline) and probably Classic as well (always being referred as mature for my age, serious, stuff I associate with Classics).

    Hello Jenn! I've been exploring essences and your videos, and I got an analysis from you a few months ago! I was confident in my Classic and Natural essences but I couldn't figure out my third essence. I knew it was yin, and I was swinging between Ethereal and Ingenue because they both had a softness to them. Then I remembered one of your notes was that there is a "fullness in my cheeks" which finally made it click - full cheeks lends a sense of youthfulness, therefore Ingenue! It's very interesting looking at both the overall look but also knowing how/which features contributes to the essences

    Fantastic video, as usual. I do have a question (and this might be more Kibbe related if I think about it hard enough). Do you think a contributing factor to an essence can also be the distance the mouth is from the nose? I notice the softer essences have a shorter distance and the more “dramatic” leaning essences CAN have more distance between the nose and lips. If the distance is longer in yin types, the lips tend to curl up a bit. And for naturals, the distance is the shortest. Also the cupids bow. It tends to be smaller and pronounced in yin types and a bit more wider, making it less exaggerated in Yang types. Just thinking out loud at this point - it all confuses me. 😂

    • @stylemejenn
      @stylemejenn  7 месяцев назад +2

      Interesting - I would assume that essences like Gamine or Ingenue would be associated with short philtrum because a longer philtrum tends to make the face appear more mature! I have to look at this in more detail but interesting observation!

    I think I prefer Kitchener because Kibbe tries to mix physical lines with “vibes,” and a lot of times a person’s body lines don’t quite match their face and vibe so it gets quite confusing. I’m pretty sure I have a “soft classic” sort of body, but the style really doesn’t suit my face… I think perhaps I have a mix of dramatic, romantic, and ethereal. I look a lot like Morticia actually, but softer bone structure so less extreme of a dramatic look. I’m not particularly tall or elongated, I don’t have narrow hips, but I feel like there’s a dramatic undercurrent that can’t just be disregarded.

    Honestly I've been 100% stumped regarding essences. I'm Dramatic family and have been told my essences are Dramatic and Natural, but something feels missing when I adapt OR combine these styles. My eyebrows are huge and curved at an angle, not quite Dramatic but not Natural, either, and while my face is long, the rest of my features are usually moderate to soft. I've never considered Romantic essence, but Dramatic/Romantic/Natural is something I might explore thanks to this video!

    I'm trying to combine my classic essence with ingenue and a tiny bit of romantic. Not super easy, especially that in Kibbe I am dramatic classic. But what was very helpful for me in the video, were the words describing each essence, so of each of my three, I have chosen one and I resonate with the combination: elegant, sensual and innocent. Still, something is missing, as it now sounds too naive, like a little woman, which I am definitely not. I would add: with strong views. :))) Difficult task. :)))

    I actually think you have a strong natural essence too! I don’t think it’s bias 😂. I also think you have a classic undercurrent that is more than just in your features but also in how you carry yourself, of course I am basing this off of an edited video where you have curated your image but I still think you have a decent amount of classic essence. I think your final essence is ingenue! You have small and delicate lips and delicate nose. Your colouring is quite muted in my opinion and your voice is higher pitched. I think the combination of natural and ingenue essence give you a sweet and down to earth vibe!

    Just a question about eyebrows, since you say they are important: I always feel the need to darken my eyebrows somewhat, as they don't naturally have much colour (or part of them doesn't), so would that mean I don't have much Ethereal, if any? It's just an essence I'm still debating myself, as I do feel some of my traits point towards it, but not sure ;) But anyway, I know I have at least one elongating essence, as very long hair suits me, and short most definitely doesn't ;)

    I hope this doesn't sound creepy but your lips also look very full and round and have a beautiful shape in my opinion, but you don't recognise yourself in the romantic type? Is that a personal preference or don't all full lips give off the romantic vibe, does the shape play a role? Your look does transmit some kind of serenity overall...

      LOL Thank you for the comment on my lips! I do have full lips but I also overdraw them slightly to enhance the fullness of them more. I've been contemplating about the Romantic essence on myself - I think I have a lot of Yang traits in my face to have a significant blend of Romantic in my essence, but I might have a dash of it - which I will gladly take! 😂

      POC also have varying contrast levels. For example Asians have various contrast levels even though we all have dark hair. Compared to blonde-haired individuals we appear to have higher contrast, but amongst ourselves there is a difference. I'm sure the same logic applies for other races. All in all, low contrast seems like a pretty important indicator of the Ethereal essence to me!

      Check out Classic essence! In my humble opinion, Rosamund Pike may have Classic essence, Calista Flockhart may have Classic-Gamine blend, and Michelle Pfeiffer may be Classic-Romantic! However, be careful about comparing yourself to celebrities. They have a whole team of people working to build their public image, and they can have resources we, common folks, may not even know about. Your essence should come from you, and you alone. What do you see in yourself?

I dont look that youthful and since around my 23rd birthday i never get asked for i.d so the romantic description of never looking underage but never past 20 rings true.

Her nose is long but still small/low visual weight. Her eyebrows are light in color/density and round in shape. Her cheeks aren't chubby nor defined but they're still rounded looking imo. Her face shape as a whole is round.

    Hi Jenn, you are so beautiful! But IMHO you are not flamboyant natural. Please hear me out.
    As someone who spent years obsessing about Kibbe I can understand why you came to the conclusion of being FN. Here is what I think:
    While we all can observe others objectively, we all have problems perceiving our own bodies objectively. That is the root cause of why we have difficulties discerning our own Kibbe type: We get stuck in the CONCEPTS of how we perceive ourselves and that literally clouds our judgement.
    It happened to many us.
    In your case one of the reasons you named for being FN were your broad shoulders. Or rather you perceived them as broad. When in fact objectively they are not. You don't have FN width in your shoulders.
    Another point you made is that you feel best in FN cloths and that is great. Do keep wearing them if you love them. Objectively though you seem to drown in some of them. Why? Because they don't go with your lines:
    You don't have FN width nor vertical. Objectively you seem rather petit.
    I would like to invite you to check whether the CONCEPTS of how you perceive yourself and your preference of clothes or essence might get in the way of seeing yourself objectively.
    It happens to most of us at the beginning of our Kibbe journey and it can take a while to overcome this obstacle.
    Much joy on your journey!
    Cheers from a FN
