Skin undertone test
Use a photo of your face or wrist in daylight to see whether your undertone is warm, cool or neutral.
Your photo is analysed in your browser
- Use soft daylight near a window, not direct sun or yellow indoor light.
- Face the camera straight on with no filters.
- Remove makeup if you can, and pull hair back from your forehead.
Backup check without a camera
- Look at the veins on your inner wrist in daylight: green suggests warm, blue or purple suggests cool, a mix suggests neutral.
- Hold gold and silver jewelry against your skin: gold glowing means warm, silver glowing means cool, both fine means neutral.
- Compare a pure white and a cream paper next to your face: white flattering means cool, cream flattering means warm.
You can also photograph the inside of your wrist in daylight. The tool then reads that skin color.
