here's the thing with olive skin...you're tan after 5 minutes under the sun in summer, and become snow white in the winter. it's so hard to find shades that are consistent through all seasons...

Everything makes sense now. Actually, I rarely use foundation or concealer. Only on special occasions. I always thought that my undertone was neutral but whatever neutral shade I tried, it always looked too peachy on me. Warm was too yellow and cold was too pinkish. I might be olive. I need to test it out immediately. Thank you so much ❤️ Actually, I should have known because of my heritage. 🙈 Mediterranean people are often described as having olive skin. Both gold and silver jewellery doesn’t look bad on me but gold looks better. I‘m also light but tan very easily. Comparing my pictures with the celebrity pictures, my skintone is very similar to Teni Panosian.

I’ve come to the conclusion that my skin tone is neutral (I have both green and blue veins, which is a strong sign) and things that work for me are anything that is a neutral beige tone. I just tend to stick to concealers and translucent powders now so my natural skin tone shines through.

Most just stops at saying "there are 4 undertones" and expects us to magically have the training to figure out where we match. So thanks!!

It's still something I'm struggling with, so I appreciate your video and would love if you decided to make another video expanding on your product recommendations!!

I feel so happy finding this video... I have been struggling so much on how to find my undertone. I have never realized I'm an olive undertone person 😭. Many many thanks Haley 💖💖💖.

“you might look sick when not wearing makeup “ litterally me. if i look at myself in thr mirror in any season that isn’t summer, i litterally look green all of the time and people notice it. it dosnt help that i live in a cold area so i also have a vitamin D diffencency, so it can get really bad. and it dosnt help that my skin can get quite dark in thr summer and i like how that looks more than when i pale out in the winter, so them people would be like, “hey your looking sickly”, or , “you’ve been looking really pale lately” and i hate it so much oh my gosh. they just don’t realize that i’m really self conscious about it.😅

The struggle is real! Especially if you're light or light-medium olive. A lot of times, cosmetic companies even have any olive shades, it's usually med or med tan.

This is totally me been confused and struggled to find makeup that suits me I just don;t know my undertone at all! OMG so glad that the beauty community rave about this suddenly. I hope there will be more makeup for people like me.

Ohmygod best description of olive skin tone ever! I have it and know for sure even across 3 or several people who have olive skin tone we could all be very very different in the colour pallette we need. And it's incredibly hard to describe to other people who's not!

as expected, haley with her high quality and informative content

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! I am a happy light-olive skin person 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you for mentioning that an individual’s overtones change depending on sun exposure! that changed my whole perspective on skin tones For years I have wondered why in the winter I turn a greyish yellow, and I traditionally fit in the “cool colour” spectrum. Meaning cooler colours and sliver look best on me. But then in the summer, I get a little darker and I feel as though I change to a warmer colour spectrum. all the sudden gold looks better and warmer colours bring me to life. My veins are a mix of purple and green, and that has confused me a lot. I have always been very confused about what my skin is….

Your summer/winter experience (as well as veins) describe me! Stupidly enough, I got a tattoo when I was eighteen, right atop my veins, so I can only refer to the veins on my one untattooed hand...

Exactly!!!!

I have olive undertones and Haley recommends alot of warm products for olives - but because there are warm and cool olives, as a cool olive, colors that usually work on people with cool blue/pink undertones work best on me (blue, purple, pink, silver, green, etc.) and colors that look good on warm people don’t suit me (orange, gold, yellow, bronze, copper, etc.) If you feel like you’re a cool olive, cool colors rather than warm orange colors like ABH Soft Glam may suit you more!

I love this! I've been working with Sephora for over 5 years and have done probably hundreds of shade matches. For clients that come in and tell me that they haven't found any luck with W/N/C under-toned complexion products I always say "well, have you tried olive?" and then I move on with educating them about it as well as getting them their perfect shade match!. Its such an underrated undertone that is not as easily accessible or is underrepresented like you said, and can easily bring out so much brightness and a fresh aura to their skin. So, thanks Haley for spreading awareness about it!

omgosh this video is a life saver! I didnt really understand the concept of olive undertones till I saw this video, thankyou so much!

The only brand I've found to specifically cater towards olive skin tones is EX1- I discovered them last year and it felt amazing to finally find a shade that actually matched my undertone. For so many years, all the concealers I wore (I don't wear foundation) were usually too pink so it looked like I had pink rashes on my skin. I think the founder put it best when she said that, you can have 100 shades, but if the undertones aren't right, they're not going to match.

I feel like color blinded trying to learn recognize all this 😂

Thank you for this, it was a revelation!!!! Would appreciate recs for concealers especially, neutralizing the grayness in olive skin tones from hyperpigmentation

I love love Nyx's color called medium olive. I've never had a better match! Thank you for this great video

When I go to stores, employees always choose warm foundations for me, but they always look too yellow on me. But then cooler shades always look too gray :( I might have to look into finding olive tone base products. Thanks so much for this video, so informational as usual!

I have light olive skin. I really don't think redish/orangey eyeshadows look good on me. I usually go for cool/neutral eyeshadow looks, rarely anything that's warm (and soooo prevalent in most releases 😩).

Yes! Let's make olive tone support system videos a regular feature please! 😍 Love it!

I believe I've olive tones leaning towards yellow. Your colour suggestions are so correct.

Pro-tip for my fellow olives: rose gold looks IMMENSELY BETTER than silver and gold.

this is very helpful.I have the same problem too, as someone who is a "tanned" asian! thank you for sharing this :)) plus the way you explained it was super easy to understand ^__^

오아..올리브톤에 대한 이렇게 자세한 영상 처음이에요..!!😲👍👍 다른 톤이랑 같이 설명해주시니까 이해하기 넘 쉬워여 ㅎㅎ 오늘 립도 넘 이쁘세요 🌹❤

My mom told me I was olive since u was a child, but when I grew up I always came across beauty articles that described olive as a tanned tone like southern mediterranean people. So I dropped the conception. Thanks for clearing that up! It's similar to the confusion about body types until a KZreadr showed the differences for each type depending if its overweight or underweight

Please do make more vids on olive undertones! I only realized I had olive skin a few months ago which makes sense. Your vids has been really helpful especially for lighter skintones since i'd usually see brown to dark women giving tips on olive undertone more. I hope you could do foundation & concealer recommendation for light-medium skintones 🙏

What olive foundation did you use in the video??

i have light olive skin on the grayer sider, and the amount of times people ask me if i'm okay because i look sick/dead/tired when i don't wear makeup...😭

@@AB-ez1eh honestly, i tend to just wear warmer foundations and blend them down my neck to make it look like it matches lmao, so i havne't shopped around much. but the closest match i've found so far is dr. jarts BB cream in the color light-medium! it's on the neutral side and i think it blends in with my skin tone more since it's a lighter coverage. BUT alexandra anele's beauty channel is awesome for us because she has fair olive skin too, so i'd def recommend watching her videos!

We'd love a foundation/concealer video Haley!

Definitely a video of different brands that carry olive undertone foundations and concealers. Please!

woah... i think i’m a neutral olive undertone. i’m caramel from the nyx total control drop foundation, can anyone else confirm?

*if you're olive, does that automatically mean you can tan easily? I think I may be slightly olive (but more on the pale side)* if I haven't been out in the sun for a while, I need to tan for a while to start getting darker, but once I get the base, I tan normally. I get hyperpigmentation easily, I'm oily, I've always had trouble finding the right foundation shade. I've always said I was neutral-leaning-warm since neutral is a little too beige/grey for me but warm is too yellow/orange. and when I look at my neck under the sun (but not in direct sunlight), I have a slight green-tinge to it

Totally relate it's the same with me , same skin type and same issues ! Still finding the right shades but so far I've found bb cream is the best option and one shade darker warm shade concealer under my eyes , sometimes I try to use a green corrector and mix it in my yellower foundations but the right ratio is too hard to make every time let me know what works for u!

yes please a video on olive foundations and concealers pretty please!!!!!! im light neutral olive and would really appreciate your help!

THANK YOU for speaking about this. I have a light skin tone but still olive. I never had a perfect foundation match ever.

My skin tone is exactly like Mila's Kunis and I always literally ALWAYS had a problem with buying foundation

Yes please!!! Foundation and concealer recommendations for Olive undertones. Looking forward to it 😊

Hi Haley I’d love to see a video about foundation and concealer recommendations for olive undertones 💖💖💖 I have olive tones but I’ve never been able to find the right product, I always end up looking pink and then I just add the colour back to my face with a bronzer. But then when I go into different lighting I’m self conscious because I think my skin gets a weird look 🥲🥲 Thanks for this video i really enjoyed it, and the makeup recommendations at the end were great too ☺️☺️

Thank you for all your helpful videos! I would love to hear some suggestions for olive undertone foundation or concealers please!
