How Can You Find Out Your Color Tone

By Rita Gangwani on Mar 24, 2023

There are a few ways to determine your skin’s undertone, which can help you find colors that complement your complexion. Here are a few methods you can try:

  1. Look at your veins: Check the color of your veins on the underside of your wrist. If they appear blue or purple, you likely have cool undertones. If they appear greenish, you likely have warm undertones. If you can’t tell if they’re blue or green, you may have neutral undertones.
  2. Check your skin’s reaction to the sun: If your skin burns easily and doesn’t tan much, you may have cool undertones. If your skin tans easily, you likely have warm undertones.
  3. Consider your jewelry preferences: Do you tend to wear silver or gold jewelry? If silver looks better on you, you may have cool undertones. If gold looks better, you may have warm undertones.
  4. Use a white piece of paper: Hold a piece of white paper up to your face in natural light. If your skin appears to have a pink or rosy cast, you likely have cool undertones. If your skin appears yellow or golden, you likely have warm undertones.

Once you determine your undertone, you can use that information to choose clothing, makeup, and accessories that flatter your complexion. For example, if you have cool undertones, you may look best in colors like blue, green, and pink. If you have warm undertones, you may look best in colors like orange, yellow, and red.
