Ever wonder why certain colors make you glow while others leave you looking dull? The secret lies in understanding your skin tone, undertone, and how colors interact with them. Here’s how to determine which shades bring out your best features. 

1. Know Your Undertone 
Your skin’s undertone is the key to finding colors that suit you. Undertones fall into three categories: warm, cool, and neutral. Warm undertones have hints of yellow or gold, cool undertones show pink or blue, and neutral undertones blend both. 

2. Test for Your Undertone 
To identify your undertone, try these quick tests: 

• Vein Test: Look at your wrist. Green veins suggest a warm undertone, while blue or purple veins indicate a cool undertone. 

3. Choose Colors That Enhance Your Undertone 
Once you know your undertone, select clothing colors that complement it: 

• Warm Undertones: Earthy tones like rust, olive, mustard, and warm reds will enhance your natural glow. 
• Cool Undertones: Jewel tones such as emerald, sapphire, and icy pastels create a flattering contrast. 
• Neutral Undertones: Lucky you! You can wear a wide range of colors but look especially great in muted tones like taupe, soft pink, and teal. 

4. Understand Contrast and Depth 
Your hair and eye color also influence which shades suit you best. If you have high contrast between your hair and skin (like dark hair with fair skin), bold colors will flatter you. For lower contrast (like blonde hair with fair skin), softer, blended colors tend to work best. 

5. Try the ‘Face Test’ 
Hold different clothing shades up to your face in natural light. Colors that brighten your skin tone, reduce shadows, and make your eyes pop are your winning shades. 

6. Avoid Your Weak Colors Strategically 
If a certain color washes you out but you love it, wear it away from your face—like in skirts, pants, or accessories—to keep your look balanced. 

By understanding your undertone and learning which hues highlight your features, you can confidently choose clothing colors that make you look vibrant and feel amazing every time.
