Hereof, what is my skin tone?

In natural light, check the appearance of your veins beneath your skin. If your veins appear blue or purple, you have a cool skin tone. If your veins look green or a greenish blue, you have a warm skin tone. If you can't tell whether or not your veins are green or blue, you probably have a neutral skin tone.

Secondly, how do I know my skin tone for foundation? The first thing you want to do is determine if your complexion has warm (yellow), cool (pink) or neutral undertones. One trick is to look at the veins in your wrist—if they appear blue or purple, you're cool; green or olive, you're warm and if they're a mix of both, you're neutral.

Just so, what is my skin tone and undertone?

Warm: If the base tone of your skin is yellow or gold, you have warm undertones. Cool: If you see hints of blue, pink or red, then you have cool undertones. Neutral: If there's a mixture of both warm and cool hues, or your undertone is the same color as your actual skin color, then you fall into the neutral category.

Which skin tone is most attractive?
