Skin Tone Colour Finder

Pick the depth closest to your skin and your undertone. Not sure? Check the veins on your inner wrist in daylight: greenish suggests warm, bluish or purple suggests cool, a mix suggests neutral.

Undertone

How it works

Undertone chooses the colour family; depth decides how much contrast and saturation looks best. Lighter skin usually carries softer, mid-tone colours well, while deeper skin can handle rich, bright and high-contrast shades.

These are guidelines, not laws. If a colour makes you feel great, wear it, and use the swatches as a shopping shortcut.

Frequently asked questions

I am Indian. Does this work for me?

The depth options were chosen for the range of Indian skin tones, from fair to deep.

Do these colours apply to sarees and lehengas?

Yes. Use the main palette for the garment and the accent colours for borders, blouse or dupatta.

What if my undertone changes with a tan?

Tanning changes your surface colour but not your undertone, so judge by the wrist veins and how gold or silver looks on you.
