Another name for neutral skin tone is beige undertone. This group is all the other types that don’t fit in warm and cool skin tone categories. They are the luckiest group because all the color will easily fit to them.

The easiest way to check your undertone is vein test. Check your veins on the inside of your wrist under sunlight. If the veins look blue, you’re cold. If they are green, then you are warm. If you have the both colors, you have neutral skin tone.

If you are not satisfied with the simple test you can use Photoshop or Paint’s color scale for a second check-up.

Now that you know your skin’s undertone you can make better choices with color. Cool skin tones carry cool colors better, like pink or dark blue, while warm skin tones should go with warm colors like green or red.

Now it’s getting complicated. Simply you should neutralize your color balance. For example warm skin tones will rock in ash tones, for cool skin tones rich gold tones for hair will do the same.

The rule for products like lipsticks or eye shadows is same as for clothes. For concealer and foundation you should try to neutralize your color like you do with your hair.
