Trying to choose a shade that compliments your skin tone? Find that perfect match by first determining if your skin tone is “warm” or “cool.” If you are pale and burn easily then you’re cool and colours that suit fair skin will look best on you. Consider yourself warm if you fall under the medium to dark skin tone category.

• Fair skin tones: Pinks, light peach, nudes in apricot, beige, cherry red and dark berry
• Medium skin tones: Medium pinks, rose, mocha, apricot, caramel, burgundy and wine
• Olive skin tones: Brown and fire engine reds, deep rose, bronze, raisin, berry and deep apricots
• Dark skin tones: Caramel, walnut, dark berry, fuchsia, plum and crimson red.
