The warm, cool or neutral spectrum of beauty is the color group that your skin tone falls into naturally. Colors are divided into pigments: yellow/orange tones for warm, blue/red for cool, or both warm and cool shades or shades in between for neutral.

That sounds great - but how do you know your color group? For starters, it isn't hard to figure out whether your natural skin tone is more a warm, or a cool. Use these guidelines, grouped together according to your natural hair color, eye color, and complexion without foundation on:

Warm Color Group

-Your hair is naturally black or brown (brown with reddish or copper flecks). Your eyes are brown, and your complexion is olive or golden and tans easily
-Your natural hair ranges from light, golden to dark blonde, your eyes are dark brown and your skin is golden or olive and tans easily
-Your hair is naturally red or light auburn with dark blonde flecks. Your eyes are either green or brown, and your skin tone is beige, tanning easily
-Your hair is naturally a reddish to golden brown, your eye color is blue and your complexion is light beige, tanning easily

Cool Color Group

-Your natural hair color is light to medium brown, you have either greenish, hazel, or blue eyes and you burn easily (but have naturally rosy cheeks)
-Your hair is naturally a darkened ash blonde, your eyes are either hazel or blue and your complexion is very fair to pale
-Your hair color is dark brown, your eyes are blue and you have a pink tone to your fair or pale skin
-You're a naturally light to medium brunette, your eyes are a blue-gray to light-green color, your face is fair to pale with a hint of rose in your cheeks
-Your hair is naturally red or dark brunette, your eyes are a very dark brown, and your skin is pale to fair with very rosy cheeks"

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

[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. :)

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

[cheerleader4859]

[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.
