Are you cool tone? Are you warm tone? Neutral tone?
It can get really confusing and hard to understand what an undertone is or why it has anything to do with makeup. But it plays a huge part with makeup, especially when it comes to picking out a perfect foundation. Now understand that the undertone is whats under the skin and that tone doesn't change. An easy way to tell what your tone is to simply turn over your forearm and look at your veins. Now if you see that your veins are blue or purple then you are cool tone. If you see that your veins are green then you are warm tone. Now in my case along with others if your veins appear blue-green then you are neutral tone. But in most cases neutral tone can sway more warm when deciding on which tone to pick. The tone as I said before plays a huge part on makeup in was to harmonize a look or to add contrast. When you are warm tone you can use warm shadows, blush colors or lip color to not only harmonizes but also being an easy way to guaranteeing a look will work best on you. (same rule if your cool tone) Now if you wanted to add contrast; a warm tone individual would use cool tone items to add a pop. As will a cool tone individual use warm tone items to add a pop to their skin. Hope this help to better understand what tone is and to help when buying foundation. XOXO
