Can you look at my pic and tell me if I'm cool or warm toned?

I'm so confused! Veins on inner wrist look green I think, some purple maybe? Eyes green but my mum says they're grey. I wear silver jewellery but I think that's just habit. Clinique lady told me years ago I was neutral and MAC said I was NC15. I just can't decide if I'm cool or warm toned. Can anyone tell just from this photo?

You look in the middle to me!

Love your eyes! And they are green!

Have you got some colour on your eyebrows? They look warmer than the rest of you. I'd say cool except your eyebrows.

Your skintone and coloring looks a lot like mine, I have green/purple veins too and am pale. I'm neutral, perhaps slightly on the cool side, but cool/warm does not really capture me as I can wear both. I have gray green eyes with warm brown rust flecks (do your eyes change color depending on what you wear - mine do). I had my colors done, I was light summer in color analysis but can wear soft summer and light spring colors too, and my eye color is from the autumn palette. I had both silver and gold on my swatches. The most important thing I took away from it was that I am low-contast and look best in relatively muted colors - soft whites and creams, denim blues, mid grays, taupes and olive greens.

I think you're in between and could go for either i.e warm or cold depending on how you feel.

It's not a case of one or the other y'know?

You look neutral to me.

Which can make buying foundation a ball-ache as brands can often run very pink or very yellow.

Can you remove a pic after you have posted on here? Op no help to you as I am clueless. You are very pretty though!

Thanks for replying. RoganJosh I have got NYX brow mousse in blonde on my eyebrows. Which looks cool in the pot. Hmmm. Also wearing blusher. Don't think I'm brave enough to post a make up free pic.

Frustrated I don't think they change colour. And I'm not even sure which colours suit me! Thinking of the stuff in my wardrobe, I wear black, white, maroon, hot pink, mid to dark blue. No yellow and I don't like pastels.

Feckthemall thank you! Not sure about pic being removable. I was nervous so I name changed though Grin

I'd say cool; I'd agree with your mum that your eyes are grey.

Your whole colouring looks muted rather than clear and that black top does you no favours so I think you could be either a summer or autumn. You need to look at yourself in the mirror and see how you look with warm tones and cool tones.

However, its very hard to tell from photos as it all depends on the lighting/flash etc.

Or better still get a HoC consultation - it will save you loads of time and money...

You look cool-toned to me. There's quite a lot of pink in your skin, and your eyes are definitely greyish. I think you're probably some kind of Summer.

I would say cool toned.

I think this vein colour is bollocks tbh. I have never seen anyone with green veins.

You look cool to me- your skin has a very pink tone and I can't see you wearing olives, yellow and browns that go with a warm complexion.

I can see you in pale pink, cool blues, violet etc.

You do look very young though :) or is that :)
