Why Certain Metals Look Better on Different Skin Tones
Choosing the perfect jewelry can feel like an art, especially when you consider how certain metals complement your unique skin tone. Understanding your skin's undertone can make all the difference in selecting pieces that enhance your natural beauty and bring out your glow. At Robinson's Jewelers, we believe every woman deserves jewelry that resonates with her essence.
To begin, let’s identify your skin undertone. Your undertone is the subtle hue beneath the surface of your skin, which can be categorized as cool, warm, or neutral. Knowing your undertone will help you pick metals and gemstones that naturally harmonize with your complexion.
How to Determine Your Skin Undertone
1. Vein Test: Look at the veins on the inside of your wrist under natural light. If they appear blue or purple, you have cool undertones. If they appear green, you have warm undertones. If it's hard to tell, you likely have a neutral undertone.
2. Sun Reaction: Does your skin burn easily? Cool undertones often burn. If you tan easily, you might have warm undertones. If you both tan and burn, your undertone might be neutral.
Best Metals for Your Undertone
Cool Undertones: If your skin has cool undertones, opt for metals like silver, white gold, or platinum. These cool-toned metals enhance the blue and pink hues in your skin, creating a chic and balanced look.
Warm Undertones: Warm undertones shine in yellow gold, rose gold, and copper. The warm tones of these metals complement the golden or peachy hues in your complexion beautifully.
Neutral Undertones: Lucky you! Neutral undertones can wear both cool and warm metals, giving you the freedom to experiment with combinations like platinum and rose gold.
Gemstones That Flatter Your Undertone
Cool Undertones: Gemstones like sapphire, amethyst, and emerald work beautifully to accentuate your cool undertone.
Warm Undertones: Consider vibrant gemstones like garnet, citrine, and amber to add a touch of warmth to your jewelry collection.
Neutral Undertones: Versatile and adaptable, neutral undertones can pair with a wide variety of gemstones, including diamonds and pearls.
Mixing Metals for a Modern Twist
For those with neutral undertones, mixing metals like white gold and yellow gold creates a contemporary and stylish look. Don’t be afraid to combine textures and tones for a bold statement.
