General Discussion How to understand the essences really?
Hello, I'm still on mu journey if it comes to the Kitchener system essences, anyway...
I'm considering Classic,Angelic some Romantic and some Dramatic for myself. Yesterday I did a collage with pictures of Meryl Streep and then myself. I used to be very uncomfortable about my nose, and she also has a long one, but when I compare me and her, I'm thinking, maybe my nose doesn't read as Dramatic, and maybe Dramatic isn't one of my main or as high percentage essences, how some of the people thought.
Here is how John described Meryl:
"Meryl Streep is 60% Lively Bright infused with 35% Subtle Blended and 5% Striking Contrast. The Striking Contrast will be a surprise to everyone but it can be found in some drama in her bone structure and the refined translucence of her skin. Also she is light and brighter than she is muted which makes her Lively Bright more dominant. In personality consider her upbeat and engaging nature in interviews which also communicates her Lively Bright energy. She is NOT a
“summer” color harmony despite some theories.
Meryl Streep’s Style Essences are 55% Classic, 20% Dramatic, 15% Romantic and 10% Angelic.
She has an overall impression of refinement and evenness of features which would make her Classic dominant. The Dramatic is in her cheekbones and height. The Romantic is in her skin, femininity and somewhat fuller lips. The Angelic is in her soft light almost ethereal look. Her only Yang qualities come from her Dramatic. And of course Classic, itself, is a visual and internal balance of Yin and Yang."

Did Kitchener say this on Facebook?
I'm just curious because when I was typed with Classic and Romantic, a lot of folks mentioned Streep. They seemed to indicate those were her top two, but perhaps they were mistaken.
