Gone are the days of wearing makeup that doesn’t match your skin tone. 2024 will be the year you find your true shade by really knowing your undertone!

For the vein test, you’ll check the veins in your face, neck and wrist to see what colour they are. Blue-toned veins suggest a cool undertone, green veers warm, and a combination of both leans neutral. For the paper test, observe whether your skin appears pink (cool-toned) or yellow (warm-toned) when holding up a piece of paper next to your face in natural light. The sun test will reveal your undertone by considering whether you burn or tan in the sun (burning indicating a cooler undertone, and tanning suggesting a warmer one).
Lastly, take a look at your jewellery preferences. If you think gold looks better on you, then you may have a warm undertone. If you love the look of silver, your undertone may be cooler.
