What’s my skin tone?

I was just having a quick browse of the internet and came across this post by Lady Fabuloux. It is a really simple way to determine your skin tone so thought you may like to read it too.

Determining your skin tone can help you choose the right colours to suit you, with not only makeup but with clothes and jewellery too. If you have ever used a lipstick or foundation that just doesn’t look right, it could be because it doesn’t match your skin tone. So read all about it.

Lady fabuloux: What’s my skin tone ?.

Here are the basics;

First of all , you have two groups of skin tones – Cool skin tones and Warm skin tones.

Cool skin tones – the skin has a little pink in their skin (these people will burn easily)

• People who look good in silver and not too great in gold , but also people who look better in ash colors.
• Most of the time your veins will be blue ( take a look at your wrist)
• Cools look better in white as opposed to ivory. And they look awesome in black.
• You also have a cool skin tone if you look good in these colors :

Warm skin tones – the skin has a yellow undertone or golden undertone. ( these people will tan easily)

• If you have a warm skintone gold will look better on you than silver jewellery.
• You look more beautifull in golden haircolors then in ash hair colours.
• Most of the time your veins will be green (take a look at your wrist)
• Warms look better in ivory over white and washed out in black.
• You also have a warm skin tone if you look good in these colors :
