So here's the deal, there's three main skin tones and many people don't know which one they fit into. *Ahem* I'm talking about the girls who walk around TANGO'D! Excuse my anger there, but I find it really irritating when people don't embrace their own skin tone and use products to suit it. I'm gonna do a quick break down of the three tones to give some people insight into what their tone is.
Yellow
- Olive, Warm, Tan skin tones
- Thicker skin which means it doesn't burn easily or isn't overly sensitive
- No freckles
- Oily
- No transparency or broken capillaries
- Italian/Spanish type of skin
- Pale, Cool skin tones
- Thinner which it burns much easier
- Transparent, sensitivity and prone to damage
- Broken capillaries and under eye circles are seen easier
- Freckles
- Typical Irish skin tone
- Paler, Ivory or Porcelain skin tones
- No freckles
- No colour on chest or arms such as redness to tell a colour
- No warmth in the skin
I hope this helped a little bit.
Love,
S.
Thank you :)
