Tips to know which colors stand out to you

Has it happened to you that there are days where people told you “ what did you do today, are you radiant?” or how pretty you look today! But when you think about what you did differently, you don't realize what could have been.

We will tell you in this space about that trick that you accidentally did, and that made your beauty stand out naturally. Ready? Let us begin:

TONE AND SUBTONE:

In your body with the naked eye you are able to identify what your skin tone is, it is as simple as saying, I am White, Brunette or black.

There is an article that may interest you where you can identify six (6) skin tones and then know which one could be yours: Know the skin types according to the Fitzpatrick scale

Now when we talk about SUBTONES , we refer to – nuance or pigmentation- which is found within the color of our skin which is unalterable, that is, if you tan or get sunburned, your undertone will remain and remain the same.

Now, when we talk about SUBTONES, within the simplest theory and by which we are always guided, we find 3 types: Warm, Cold and Neutral.

  • WARM UNDERTONE: This refers to skin that has more yellow or tan pigments and we observe the veins much more greenish.
  • COLD SUBTONE: They are the ones with the most pigments blue in the skin and tend to be more pink , the veins that stand out will look much more blue and not greenish.
  • NEUTRAL SUBTONE: It is one that has a mixture of the previous two since the skin has pigments both cold and warm , this category is much more scarce to find.

NOTE: Just because you are white you will not have a cold tone nor because you are dark will you have a warm tone, the above will indicate the skin complexion and the amount of product that we should apply. It is the undertone you have that will determine the difference.

So! It is for all this that we have just told you that on many occasions people will ask you what you did differently that made you look more radiant, very likely that day you wore some clothing or makeup that fits perfectly to your skin and gave you more light than If you had used a tone opposite to yours that would take away your light , which would accentuate expression lines and dark circles.
