Help Determining Skin Undertone!

Hello! Thank you in advance for your help. I have had some difficulty determining my undertones, and thus which shades of makeup to purchase. I consider myself to be fair toned, however I oscillate between thinking I have pink or yellow undertones (but makeup that is advertised as yellow or pink tend to be too pigmented). I tan easily, but usually burn a bit before hand- my body is also much more tan than my face. I will upload a picture for reference. Thank you again!

Re: Help Determining Skin Undertone!

Hi! You look like you have peach undertones. This means that you have a mix of yellow and red in your undertone, your veins are bluish-green, you burn but then tan to a rosy tone, and you probably look the best in terracotta, coral, and peach blush shades!

 

Natasha Denona's Hy-Glam Concealer in Shade P2 looks like it would be an ideal match for you. This concealer is medium to full buildable coverage, oxidation-proof due to the titanium dioxide being so high in the ingredients list, and has a satin finish

 

Saie's Glowy Super Skin Foundation in Shade 6 is another wonderful option. It has medium-buildable coverage, a luminous finish, and is perfect for every day! 

 

Any of Fenty Beauty's Foundations in Shade 160, including their powder foundation, should match you. Fenty Beauty is known for their inclusivity in both overtones and undertones so even if this shade doesn't work for you, you'll likely be able to find one that does. 

 

I hope this helped you to both understand your undertone and find products that suit it. Please keep in mind this is not an exhaustive list of products that will suit you AND my recommendation is to always try shades in store before buying as they're not always what they seem online.
