Makeup and clothing come in many different colors also. A flattering shade can give your skin and appearance a healthy glow. the wrong hue can give you a sickly, washed-out appearance.Your complexion and colouring determines which colours work best on you.In general there are Two groups of skin tone-WARM or COOL. How to tell?
Look at your inside wrist
  • Do your veins show more Green or Blue?
  • Hold a white paper,material or clothing up to your face

  • Or does it give you a healthy glow?
