Matching Your Jewellery To Your Skin Undertone

/ in

/ by

If you wear jewellery often you probably gravitate towards one type of metal or one colour of the metal. Whether it was because you think gold looks horrible on you or because people only compliment you when you wear silver jewellery, on a certain level you have already determined your undertone. When we talk about warm, cool or neutral undertones, we talk about the underlying colour that gives your skin its hue. It does not depend on your skinโ€™s surface colour but more on the underlayers of your skin. Matching your jewellery to your skin undertone will make the jewellery stand out as well as accentuate the beauty of your skin.ย

Warm Undertone

People with warm skin undertone have a more yellow or golden tint to their skin. Their complexion is often described as peachy. One of the ways to tell if you have a warm undertone is to look at the veins on your wrist in the daylight. They would have a green hue rather than blue. Another way is to compare how different shades of white clothing look on our skin. If creams and off-whites look better, you most likely have a warm undertone. For your undertone, gold jewellery looks best. It will bring out those gold undertones and simply make your complexion glow.ย

Cool Undertone

Cool undertones are flattered by silver and white gold. โ€œWhiterโ€ metals make the skin appear brighter and more radiant. A skin with a cool undertone will have a pink, blue or reddish tint. You can test for a cool undertone in similar ways you would test for a warm undertone. When exposed to sunlight however your veins will appear blue. When compared to white fabric, bright whites and true whites will look best. When trying to determine, you can also think back on your tanning experiences. Do you burn easily or never tan and have to apply a lot of sunscreen to protect yourself from burning? If the answer is yes, you have cool-toned skin.ย

Neutral Undertone

If you have a neutral undertone youโ€™re one of the lucky ones. Your neutral undertone means you donโ€™t need to worry about what jewellery or makeup you use as both look good. A neutral skin tone is a combination of both cool and warm tones. If looking at your veins you canโ€™t tell if theyโ€™re blue or green, or if they appear an olive colour, you have a neutral undertone. Any shade of white will suit your skin and when exposed to the sun you might burn if you donโ€™t use sunscreen and it eventually turns into a tan. When it comes to jewellery, golds bring out the warm tones in your skin and silvers make your skin brighter so you can freely mix and match depending on your mood.
