how to choose right foundation

Question

Priya Sureka · Answer

Hi @Monika JadhavBefore choosing a foundation, it’s very important to determine your undertone. There are three different undertones - cool, warm, and neutral. Your undertone will remain the same no matter how much sun you get so it doesn’t matter if you’re pale in the winter and tanned in the summer. Wrap the pure white towel or shirt around your neck then look at your skin in the mirror. Does your skin reflect a yellow cast (warm) or a blue or lavender tone (cool). Go outside or near a window. Lay the material over your arm. Same thing?Now, get the off white material and lay it against your skin. Which makes your skin come alive? If it’s the stark white color, you’ve got a cool undertone. If it’s the off-white color that works for you, your undertone is warm. But, if you look and feel great in both, it’s likely you’re neutral. Step two is determining your skin tone. Your skin tone is different from your undertone. It’s the shade of your skin (light, medium, or dark). And finally, look for the right formula for your skin type which could be normal, dry or oily.
