Best Clothing colors according to
various skin tone :

 You sometimes hear people talk about how blue is


“their” color, or how they look awful in peach. What
causes people to have flattering and clashing colors
for their skin tone, and how do you determine which
colors are best for you? we’ll tell you how in just a
moment, but try to remember that these rules arent
set in stone. If you love a color that isnt the best for
you, that doesn’t mean you have to stop wearing it.
Test to figure out true skin tone

You need to look more than skin-deep. While the


surface color of your skin can change with sun
exposure, reactions to medication, or medical
conditions like rosacea, your skin tone is actually
determined by the undertones that come through.
first, make sure your skin is clean and free of any
cosmetics or lotions, which could affect the results.
Determining your skin tone

The simplest test uses a plain white piece of paper. Hold the paper
up to your face and compare how your skin looks in contrast to the
paper. If your skin looks yellowish, greenish, or light brown, then
you likely have a warm skin tone.
If your skin looks pink, rosy, or blue, then you have a cool skin tone.
If your skin looks gray or ashen, then you are a neutral skin tone. If
you have a skin condition like acne, rosacea, or if you are extremely
tanned, ask someone to use the paper test on the crease behind
your ear instead, which is less likely to be affected by these
variables.
Determining your skin tone

Next, flip your hand palm up and take a peek at your


veins in the hand and wrist. If your veins appear to be
blue or purple, you have cool skin. If they appear green,
then you have warm skin. If its hard to tell one way or
the other what color they favor, then you have neutral
skin.
Colors for warm skin tones

For you the best colors are rich reflections of nature. On


the warm side of color wheel, you should turn to red,
peach, coral, orange, amber, gold, and yellow. You
should look great when you wear warmer versions od
cool colors, like olive , orchid, and violet-red. Neutral
that are best for you include cappuccino, cream, and
mushroom gray. Avoid chilly colors like icy blue or jewel
tones like sapphire because the can wash you out and
make your skin look gray.
Colors for cool skin tones

Your best colors are on the cool end of the spectrum


and are inspired by both the depths of the ocean and
the depths of winter. Bright blues, emeralds, and deep
purples will look great, along with frosty shades of
lavender, ice blue, or pink. On the warm side, you can
turn to ruby, bright rosy red, or super pale yellows. With
neutrals, you can rock cool gray, bright white, and navy.
Try to avoid orange, tomato red, and strong yellows,
which can clash with your skin completely.
Colors for neutral skin tones

As a neutral, you can wear anything on the color wheel


but it’s typically best to go for softened or muted
versions of a color instead of the brighter ones. Choose
colors like dusty pink, jade green, cornsilk yellow, lagoon
blue. For neutra; colors, turn to off-whites, coffe, mid
range grays, and black. Oversaturated colors like electric
blue and magenta can overwhelm your neutral skin
tone, but there’s one big exception to this: never be
afraid to wear a bright , true red – you will look amazing.
Colors for everyone
There’s handful of colors that will look great on any skin tone
because they provide a perfect balance of warm and cool that wont
clash with your skin. Pure white goes great with everyone’s skin. If
you find that a white garment doesn’t look quite right on you, take a
look at it in natural light and make sure it doesn’t actually have cool
or warm undertones that might not have been as obvious on the
rack. Light blush pink brightens any skin tone and brings out the
natural glow of your face. Teal with the perfect mix of blue and
green can be worn by anyone and is a great summer or winter
shade. If you want to go dark, try eggplant purple , which acts like a
neutral and accentuates your skin without overpowering it.
Thank you!
