@Backlashxox Hello! My best guess is that you are warm! I hope this helps :)

[Miiyayuu]

um i has dark ash blonde with brown eyes and i have a pink complexion then what?

[cheerleader4859]

i have carmel hair and hazel eyes i want to dye my hair.... what color do you think i should die it?

[Hattie1994]

I must be weird haha i have ashy dark blonde/ brown hair, blue eyes i'm fair but i tan well. But my skin tone is yellowy because my veins are green and i do not suit redy toned hair at all and i have rosy cheeks. Whuttttt.

[NattyLite11]

this didn't help much. I'm a platinum blonde with green eyes. I'm naturally kinda pale but I tan pretty easily...

[msKCleigh]

Hmmm...I have dark blonde hair, blue eyes, and I tan easily....not sure.

[thecakefashionista]

@msKCleigh Probably warm, but what color are your veins? If there are more green veins than blue, you are warm.  If there are more blue veins than green, you are cool.

please help! i seriously cant tell.....my veins look like a mix or purple and green...i have hazel-y eyes, i burn sorta easily and my hair is a light brown / dark dirty blond with a natural ombre' ...i look good in oranges and purples...i really cant tell..

[thecakefashionista]

@fluffydevil13 It's hard to say anything from your description, but I am guessing warm. Does your skin look better with gold or silver jewelry? If you really can't tell after that, You are probably neutral, so count yourself lucky, you can wear all colors nicely. If you are looking for foundation, choose something yellow based. I hope this helps. :)

[fluffydevil13]

@thecakefashionista okay thank you so much!

[charlinzilzie]

ok very confused on ur vid i lean towards warm but on another 1 i watched i lean towards cool help! i have darkish brown eyes dark brown hair but im not sure if its ashy or redish becuz i have coloured it tonnes of times i have light olive coloured skin but my face has a very definite red undertone but i tan easily .HELP PLZ REPLY :)

[thecakefashionista]

@charlinzilzie I say hands down Warm, you can have red cheeks and still be more yellow based. Try it out: pick a foundation that is more yellow and see how it looks. Get back to me with how that goes :)

[charlinzilzie]

@thecakefashionista thanks this rly helped :)

[viktorija5576]

helppp! i am a natural blonde, with blue eyes.i have blue and green veins. and i look good in silver and gold. i dont burn easily. but i think i am neutral tone. but here is my problem! what do i buy for mac concelers? nw or nc???? PLEASE RESPOND!

[thecakefashionista]

@viktorija5576 From what you've said, you do seem to be neutral. For an under eye concealer, you should choose an NW concealer, even if you are more yellow. This prevents the under eye circle turning more grey from layering yellow based products. For a general face concealer, I would say to either get matched at a MAC store/counter, or choose an NC toned concealer. As Bobbi Brown says, everyone looks better with yellow toned foundation products. If you have the resources, try both and mix. :)

help please ok my parents are from Guatemala (Central America ) my veins are different some blue green and purple hair color black my skin color is like olive or medium and i always have natural blush like red or pinkish ?? eyes dark brown

[thecakefashionista]

@hellokittylize I want to be an incredible help to you, but, I'm not so sure. My best guess is neutral/olive - I just went through the Make Up Forever HD foundation swatches and they have "olive" colors (123, 153, 173). BUT! Some other things! I feel like you would look good in a green eye with gold accents, alternatively, gold jewelry. If this is true, I say warm, regardless of the rosy blush. This is all speculation since I do not know you and have not seen you, so, I may be totally wrong.

I've dark blond/ light brown hair with a Little bit of orange/Red reflection. My Eyes are light Green and they got yellow in it. My Skin Is only a Little tanned. Am i cold?

(:

[thecakefashionista]

@ElegantRose94 It's not so much how tanned you are as it is how easily you tan. If you tan easily, my guess is warm. If you do not tan easily, you are cool. You could also be neutral, really. You know your skin better than I do, so this is my best guess :)

[mejiamakeup]

my viens are diffrent, some purple, some green and some blue.

my hair is darkish brown.

and my skin is a yelowy pale.

im so confussed on what colour iam, any help? :).

[thecakefashionista]

@mejiamakeup My best guess would be warm, but depending on your heritage, if you are of Mediterranean descent, you could be warm/olive. Did this help? :)

[mejiamakeup]

@thecakefashionista and i have blue eyes, my dads dad is from india and his mum is from canada. so yeah iy kinda helped. thankyou! :)

[Luna1011j]

I have dark hair and hazel eyes, and my skin is usually pale and doesn't tan very easily... Where would I fit in?

[thecakefashionista]

@Luna1011j My guess is that you are cool-toned if you have slightly rosy cheeks, neutral if you don't, but I'm no expert - to fine tune this, what clothing do you look best in? Something else: what color are your veins? If they look green on the underside of your wrist, you are warm. If they look blue, you are cool! This is how I figured out what I was. If you can't see your veins that well on your wrists, try the veins on your chest/hips. If you are still having a hard time, you are neutral.

[Nickelodeon0824]

Okay. So I have light mousey brown hair, hazel eyes (green and some brown), greenish/yellowish looking skin and I tan easily. Where do I fit in?

[thecakefashionista]

@Nickelodeon0824 You would be warm! This means you can pull off bronze, gold, and other earthy tones, and peachy blush. :)

[Aljinon]

This video was really helpful. I always thought I was a cool because I look better in silver jewelry and black/white/blue/purple, etc but I have green eyes and I tan really easily. Since I started dying my hair years ago, I've struggled in finding the right tones and recently I decided I'd love to go red...do they make neutral reds?

[thecakefashionista]

@Aljinon I guess with knowing warm or cool from your natural colors, you could figure out a good hair color..

I know that MAC's Ruby Woo is a neutral red, but you wouldn't want that for a hair color. I assume that hair color works basically the same as skin and lip color - for a cooler red, use one that's more of a burgundy or purply red. For a warmer one, choose a red that's more coppery or orange based. A neutral red shouldn't identify with either side. I hope this helps!
