Confirm Your Undertone

Veins are a rough hint, so confirm with two steadier checks at a mirror in daylight.

• Fabric test: hold pure white near your face, then cream. The shade that makes your skin look healthier and more rested wins. Cool skin tends to glow near white; warm skin near cream.
• Metal test: compare gold jewelry against silver near your face. Warm skin usually warms up beside gold; cool skin sharpens beside silver.

If both tests agree, trust that result over the vein check.
