Which Skin Tone Am I?

Colour- in my opinion it's the main element that makes or breaks an outfit. You could be wearing a fantastically cut dress and still look washed out and sick. Why? Because of the COLOUR, ladies! Colour is EVERYTHING! How do you choose your colour? By determining your skin tone of course!

Choosing your skin tone can be an incredibly confusing subject. I mean, what an earth is a Peaches and Cream complexion!? Isn't it a tasty dessert treat? What colour clothing best suits my skin tone? What colours will make me look washed out?? *confusion overload*

SO! I've done a bit of research to try and help you all on our beauty and fashion journey.

Skin Tone- Warm or Cool?:

There are two different tones of skin- Cool tones or Warm. To determine whether you are a cool tone or warm tone, expose your inner wrist to direct sunlight, if your veins are blue, you're a cool tone, if the veins are greenish and you're a warm tone!

EASY!

Choosing Your Skin Tone:

Regardless of your skin colour, you can be either a warm OR cool tone- darker skin doesn't necessarily isn't always a warm tone and vice versa. This table can help you choose which tone you are:

Now that you've found your skin tone, it's time to enhance your beautiful features! Usually cool tones suit cool colours and warm tones, warm colours. Use this table to help you choose which colours will make you stand out!
