Choosing the right foundation shade is one of the most important steps in makeup.
A well-matched foundation helps your skin look natural, smooth, and even.
The first step is understanding your skin undertone.
There are generally three types of undertones:
● Warm undertone – skin has more yellow or golden tones
● Cool undertone – skin has more pink or blue tones
● Neutral undertone – a balance of warm and cool tones
Many people test foundation on their hand, but this may not give an accurate result.
A better way is to test the shade along your jawline or neck area.
The right foundation should blend with your neck so that your face and neck look consistent.
Lighting can affect how foundation appears on your skin.
It is recommended to check the shade under natural light, as indoor lighting may make coloursappear warmer or cooler than they actually are.
