Foundation Matching
The best way to figure out your perfect foundation colour is to use The Fitzpatrick Scale. This scale indicates how your skin reacts when exposed to UV light and has 6 different levels, each of which has specific characteristics. Find out which level you are by asking yourself,
"How does my skin react when I've been in the sun?"
Sometimes, you may find that you fall between two levels and that's ok. It simply means you may need to mix 2 different shades of foundation ( liquid and/or powder ) to get your exact match. Or, it can mean that you can get away with wearing a foundation colour that fits into one category or the other.
The way to know this is to conduct a STRIPE TEST.
Am I WARM, COOL or NEUTRAL?
The best way to determine if you are Warm or Cool is by looking at the colours: Gold and Silver.
No two colours tell which category you fall in better than these.
Pick up a fabric swatch of each color and lay them side by side in NATURAL DAY LIGHT. Don't use incandescent or fluorescent lighting because they change the colour of your true skin tone
and will render this colour test inaccurate.
Remove all jewellery from your hands and place one hand on the gold fabric swatch and the other hand on the silver fabric swatch. One hand will look pasty and the other will look healthy and bright. If your hand on the silver swatch looks best, you are cool. If the hand on the gold swatch looks best, you are warm. If your hand looks good against both swatches, you're neutral.
Please note that this DOES NOT mean that if you're warm, you can never wear cool tones and vice versa. It simply means that in order to pull off cool tones (or warm tones) successfully (without looking pasty & sallow), you'll have to be a little more creative with colour coordinating and mix up the colors a bit.
Another good indicator of your skin tone is to look at your wardrobe & jewellery.
If you tend to wear clothes that are green, blue & purple and silver jewellery,
you are most likely a cool skin tone.
If your wardrobe is more red, orange and yellow with gold jewellery, you are most likely a warm skin tone.
If your clothes and jewellery are a mixture of both, you're probably a neutral skin tone.
