Be mindful of your skin tone when choosing accessories. Two of the most common skin undertones are cool and warm. These clues may help you determine which one you have:
People with warm skin tones typically have:
- Green-coloured veins
- Brown, green, or hazel eyes
- Brown, red, or black hair
Meanwhile, people who have cool skin tones possess the following appearances:
- Blue- or purple-coloured veins
- Blue or green eyes
- Brown or black hair
If you can't tell whether or not your veins are green or blue, you probably have a neutral skin tone.
