How To Know Your Skin Undertones + Pick the Best Foundation + Concealer | Cool - Warm - Neutral

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Here is my easy guide to knowing your skin's undertone and figuring out if you are cool, warm, or neutral without having to look at your veins or do a jewelry test. Just a straight forward explantation of each skin undertone and how to find yours at home!
This is how I match myself and my makeup clients quickly and accurately. Figuring out your skin's undertone will make picking out foundation, concealer, and other makeup shades so much easier.
As much as I would love to help everyone individually, I don't offer foundation or undertone matching at this time, but I truly hope all the information in this video and these blog posts help!

BLOG POST with L'Oreal Undertones Chart (fair to deep) | girlgetglamorous.com/how-to-buy-the-right-shade-of-foundation-concealer-online
It took me years to figure out that my skin undertone is peach. I could have saved so much by knowing this and buying the correct shade the first time around.
*Please note: In the video, I have incorrectly labeled the Olive undertone as "warm." It is actually a "cool" undertone. My apologies for the error!
Please give this video a thumbs up if you found it helpful!
Thank you,

    Discovering your undertone is a real struggle. For years, I would wear tinted moisturizer just to avoid this battle. Not to mention, the "pros" at Ulta and Sephora would classify me as neutral when in reality I had light golden undertone. Like you, I have acne scarring and a very mild case of rosacea which threw everyone off I believe. It took some experimentation, by swatching on my neck and chest, but I finally found the perfect foundation.

    The BEST color matching video on KZread!!! I’ve always been “matched” as cool or neutral at a makeup store and I look ghostly! I am a strong yellow toned person and I think you just know yourself when you really get into it and try yourself. Same with seasons or colors - some look alive in warm tones, some in cool tones and some in bright tones. Depth of color and tones are a thing completely of their own topic. You could be a fantastic stylist.

    This was so interesting thank you! I would never have guessed your shade was correct till you tried it on the whole cheek. I have medium olive skin and struggle to find correct foundation matches. I have resorted to adding a drop of green food colouring to some foundations, to make them more olive but one has to be so careful as the green has to be a warm green (chartreuse), or even scraping some yellowish green eye shadow into a small amount of foundation helps. Nowadays it is easier than a few years ago as a few brands make colour correcting drops, like Gosh. Most foundations in the medium shades are all too peachy, orange, yellow or pink. I once found shade 7 of a YSL foundation was perfect, then they discontinued that foundation! I can use the new L'Oreal Fresh Wear in Golden Sand, mainly because it will oxidise to the right shade. For olive skinned girls, it is a never ending battle. Inglot has a decent range for olive skins, but you have to like the texture.

They usually just look at me and give a recommendation! I went out last night and bought 3 of the wet n wild shades to practice with since they are so cheap! It was so incredible to see the wrong shades vs the correct shade! I am so excited to start replacing my foundations with the correct shades! I am tired of look grey and ghostly all the time!

    Thank you for this! I'm a fair skinned strawberry blonde with gray eyes. I've been matched with NC13 from Mac, which..looked amazing initially but somehow got less amazing over the course of a year. Maybe a batch inconsistency or me having changed primers. Makeup can be so fickle. It's nuts that it both looks too yellow AND gray! I look dead with a side of jaundice, haha. The way that you describe issues with shades is perfect and will help me better explain what I'm looking for. "Frosty, Gray" are awesome descriptors! Tarte almost always becomes very orange and heavy on my skin, UD too. Lancome 110 ivoire (24h ultra idole) was stellar for a while, but it made me look mega frosty and lifeless. I think you helped me understand the best way to find a middle ground! ...Now to figure out blush haha.

I got myself color matched once for a powder but it made me look orange despite it being their lightest shade, never tried it again especially after hearing how my mom was sold this 50 euro bronzer that would look gorgeous on medium skin colors despite my mom being as pale as me for a wedding and being told that that is her right shade (it’s the Dior bronzer in the shade 002 Honey Tan I believe) I’ve tried using it with a light hand but it looks off every time

She gave me 3 different samples of double wear and I didn’t like any of them at home! I then went to another Lauder counter and asked her for advice and explained my previous matching, and she said “well those are the shades I’d have given you, you may just not like the undertones of the double wear foundation. Maybe try Clinique” 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s frustrating as the foundation is meant to be so good and I really want to use it, but don’t want a silly shade!
