With a suitable color tone, you can boost your beautiful skin tone and glow. If you choose otherwise, even the best-groomed skin will look dull and unattractive. Colors that don’t gel with your skin tone make it look sickly or washed out! The best option in such cases is color analysis so that you always choose only the colors that are right for you. Only then will you look your best.

Here is how to do a color analysis for your skin:

Start by removing all traces of makeup from your skin. Now take a good look in the mirror. Can you identify the correct shade of skin color? The first thing you should take into account is what your skin tone is; if you have rosy cheeks that get sunburned easily, then you have “cool” skin tone. If the skin tans well, then you have a “warm” tone. It is seen that people with cool undertones usually have fair skin and light colored eyes as well. Those with a warm undertone have slightly darker eyes and medium-colored skin. The range of skin color is quite dispersed; It can be light to medium to dark. So, if you are “warm” undertone, go for honey or beige foundations, while if you are cool undertone, stick with a light or pale colored foundation.

Another way to tell what skin tone you have is to look at the skin on the inside of your wrist. If the veins look blue then you have a cool skin tone while it is warm if the veins look green. Actually, the veins are blue in color; but if they are covered by transparent colors like yellow they will look green. This color analysis gives you the background you have. If the veins are blue, the undertone of your skin is bluish-pink, while with green, the undertone is yellow.

Now let’s try to find out which metal is best suited for you, gold or silver. Take one of each type and hold it against your skin. It is seen that silver goes better with cold tones while gold with warm tones. So stick to this two-color palette as you choose your clothes, makeup, and hair color. So for cool tones, go for hair colors like ash brown, ask blondes, ruby ​​red, burgundy, and cool black. For those with warm undertones, hair colors can be orange reds like auburn, ginger or tan, golden browns or blondes and pale blondes. If you want a natural look, choose a combination of these different shades instead of just one flat color. You can ask your colorist to create a custom hair color for you or choose hair color kits that include a highlight color.

Now try on an orange shirt and a cool pink shirt. You will find that only one of them suits you. That’s because cool tones pair so well with sapphire blue, sea green, ruby ​​red, lavender, silver, plum, emerald green, other pastel colors, and of course cool pink. If you have warm undertones, colors that will work for you, besides orange, are earthy tones like yellow-green, olive green, red, navy blue, and dark brown.

Based on these color analyses, choose your hair color and makeup. Many people find it easier to choose which colors to use than which color palette to use as makeup. As a general guide, those who have blue eyes can choose eyeshadow colors such as brown, peach, silver, burgundy, soft browns, and plum. For those with hazel or brown eyes, the best colors are caramel, honey corals, reds, olive green, and chocolate.
