Finest craftsmanship and TATTOOS AND SKIN DETECTS PAIN- lesajy removed. At 24 years of age.JUGGLING CLUBS, ROLLING GLOBES made lo order. I love it and the finish it gives me.Confession: I have a diploma in makeup artistry and an almost decade-old beauty channel on YouTube, and I only just found out whether my skin undertone is warm or cool. But I think my skin tone has changed over the last few years so I dont properly match with this anymore. I feel like it gives me a sheerer finish. Ive been wearing Studio Fix as more of a lighter dusting to do more color correction.
![]() Studio Nc 2 Is It For Light Ned Ladies Skin Undertone IsMy own skin is pale enough that I often have trouble finding a light enough foundation at the drugstore. Yes, my skin is most definitely green.I’ve always associated “olive skin” with the rich colours of Latin, Arabic or Indian skin tones. When I hold my arm up next to theirs I can nearly always see a very clear… Greenness. But, my dear friends, I’ve finally found the answerMy undertone shows up most clearly when I compare my skin colour to that of my equally pale, but distinctly different-looking Dutch friends. I can’t rock silver or blue-toned purples (see how that bit of blue scarf makes my neck look that much greener?). Warm shades don’t work, but not all cool ones do either. And under my eyes, but you can’t expect me to not be wearing concealer there )Having pale olive skin comes with a whole set of struggles. One that isn’t talked about much, but definitely exists and comes in all different shades from light to dark.Apparently pale olive skin is common in Eastern Europe where I have roots, which would explain a thing or two about why my brother is the only other person I’ve met with that skin tone over here, haha!Now, what better place to turn to to illustrate anything looks-related than Hollywood? May I present gorgeous pale olive-skinned Mila Kunis.The green comes out the most when we’re not tanned, so you can see it better when she’s lighter, but take a look at this:In this photo it’s most noticeable around my mouth, the sides of my neck and my arm. The green-yellow green undertones do get more pronounced then. Maybe because they’re seen me when tanned (which is quite an achievement – I have to tan carefully and slowly), they recognize it. Keep the tips coming, it’s so good to have all of you here sharing your experiences! Face MakeupYes I am have fair skin with an olive undertone but have been told so my whole life by my family. Thank you!!!I’ve bundled some of the readers’ makeup recommendations (and my own) below, so you can shop products approved by fellow pale olive skinned ladies from right here. Any fellow pale olive ladies out there who would like to share some tips?My oh my, this post has gone places! An overwhelming amount of incredible comments has come in over the years, and they contain some very valuable advise. Vivid bright colours are usually not the best idea, as are warm pastel tones.The struggle continues as I learn to work with pale olive skin that’s kind of warm looking but actually more on the cool side. And of course there are the some legit fair olive foundations out there – kevyn aucoin etherealist in light 03 is my best fit, but sometimes I get too pale for it. Those season color theories never worked for me either.I do best with neutral foundations and then just add some green pigment into it (love LA Girl foundation adjusters for that). I have reddish brown hair and light brown eyes, and would say my coloring is overall a warm-neutral look. Makeup artists always have me looking too peach or orange.I’d say I’m a neutral warm olive – I had a hairdresser once remark that I have no pink in my skin. My enemies are pastels and cool neutrals. I look great in jewel tones and orange too. So I’m seeing more options for fair olive now.However I feel I wear most colors well. Meanwhile my German family have almost ruddy, medium skin colors and get bronze easily…. They’re all fair, burn easily, only tan with trouble but typically have olive or golden undertones. I definitely get my coloring from the Spanish side. I think you are, like me a cold olive I look hideous in red or carrot hair (again tanned but like bad tanned), but blond beiges also do nothing for my skin. Her videos can be pretty boring but are amazingly enlightening. True red/cherry red– all good.I feel like deep army green works well, but my mother insists it looks terrible on me, but she also just hates the colour and maybe she’s biased? No idea.Find so so many points of matching with me, so I would recommend Merriam Style channel on youtube and her videos about warm olive or cold olive. Medium blonde hair that’s kinda red? And ashy? But also golden? I think maybe I’m just real bad at colours?Rose gold is my best metal, but silver is ok (so are bronze and brass)Sage, emerald, hunter, forest greens are my go-to’sNavy is … fine? Must like it subconsciously because it’s one of my wardrobe staplesMuted teal, muted blues, muted purples…there’s a theme here, but deep teal and other true jewel tones are still doableThere’s one camel colour that looks great, but I can’t put my finger on why because *most* don’t workThe occasional blush/dusty rose is also amazing but I seem to fluke into the right ones because most are too cool or too warm or too pale or something?SOMETIMES peach, but again, the stars have to align. I’m a super pale, cool olive I guess. Not at all warm! Burn easily and can’t really tan. Avg vs avast for macFinally my neck matched and melted, for first time it wasn’t too pink neither too yellow. But cold foundations don’t suit me, so I gravitated to neutrals and was like a miracle to me. It was then when I understood I’m somehow cold based. I looked my best even when steticist told me not they were surprised how good I looked. My skin got clearer, my eyes brighter and my overall look softened. Peach can work for me as well. I almost exclusively wear purple/berry lip shades, even if it’s just a tint. I would think army green is good for you, cause it looks good on me too, I just don’t use it cause I don’t like greens in general except teal which looks pretty good on me tbh, but I know cause when I was a child my favorite dress (looked like a period children dress from about 1900 with sailor neck and was made of velvet!) was this green and looked amazing on me.I saw this post a while ago, and look at it now! Amazing! I love reading everyone’s stories in the comments.You’ve helped me understand why I gravitated towards deep violets, navy, pale rose, and certain other favorites literally since I was a small child.
