Licensed CosmetologistYou can usually tell by looking at your veins. If they appear greenish through your skin that indicates a warm skin tone. If they look blue or purplish that indicates a cool skin tone. If you have both green and blue veins you probably have a neutral skin tone. Also, consider which clothing colors that flatter you the most. For instance, if you look good in cream, gold, red, and other warm colors, you probably have a warm skin tone. However, if you look better in blue, gray, and violet, you probably have a cool skin tone. -

QuestionWhat color will work with pink undertones with my fair-colored skin? I also have green eyes.Community AnswerI'm thinking you should choose a complimentary color to your green eyes to make them pop - warm reds (avoid violet-based reds) like coppers, cinnamon, strawberry blonde, or auburn. If you go more than 2 levels darker or lighter than your natural hair color, it has to be the right tone and you may need to wear more makeup to prevent looking washed out.
