HOW TO KNOW WHAT SKIN TONE YOU ARE

Before finding your true foundation match you have to determine what undertones you have. Your overtone is what you see in the mirror, and your undertone is determined by the color of the veins on the underside of your wrist! If they are a bluish-purple color, it means you’re on the cool side, green-ish means you are warm and if they look blue-ish-green, you are likely to be neutral! Charlotte used her expert color artistry to create a formula to seamlessly balance your unique skin undertones and optimize your overtones!

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COOL UNDERTONES, WARM UNDERTONES & NEUTRAL UNDERTONES

Warm undertones mean your skin is more peachy, yellow, or golden. Cool undertones mean your skin is more of a pink or red shade and neutral is a combination of the two!

HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT SHADE OF FOUNDATION

Now you’ve figured out what skin tone you are and what complexion you have you can determine what foundation is best for you using Charlotte’s Foundation Finder!
