UNDER SKIN TONE AND HOW TO USE MAKEUP
A successful make-up depends above all on the right choice of shades. Not all colors can highlight us.
Beneath your skin, what is it?
Determine the undertone of the skin
There are several methods to determine the undertone of your skin. Like the vein test. The color of your visible veins, like that of the wrist, defines the undertone. If you have the green veins then the undertone is warm. On the contrary, the blue or purple veins mean that the undertone is cold. Underneath your neutral? You would have both blue and green veins.
The metal jewelry method. If the gold or rose gold jewelry makes you look better, your undertone is warm. Silver jewelry looks much better on cool skin. Do both types of jewelry suit you equally well? So your undertone is neutral.
What palette to highlight me?
The palettes with shades of pink, lavender are the ones that will best highlight you if you have the under your cold. As ROMAND Peony Nude Garden or Dusty Cat of the ETUDE brand. The shades for cold undertones are devoid of an orange or coppery color note.
If you have it under your hot, we recommend the palette Play Eye Colors Leather Shop with its brick and brown hues. The small palette signed MISSHA Morning Bakery will also highlight your beautiful eyes!
Knowing your undertone is also essential for choosing your foundation and your clothes. The ETUDE and LANEIGE brand offer shades for each undertone with the letters: N (neutral), W (warm) and C (cold).
