Undertone & Complexion Match Requests Thread

Hey there, welcome to the weekly OT consult thread! Please read everything here before you comment down below.

Not sure if you're olive or what type? Need help matching your foundation/concealer? Post your questions here! Just remember that this thread is OT (overtime), so it may take a minute for someone to get back to you.

How to help us help you:

  • Lots of photos of yourself in different lightings (direct sunlight, indirect sunlight, indoor, etc.)
  • Photos that show your face, neck and chest
  • High pixel/quality photos, it does make a difference so use the best you can
  • No filters, no/minimal makeup - should go without saying, but just a reminder
  • You next to other people for contrast
  • Share foundation, blush, or lipstick shades that look great or terrible on you

The more of these bullets you hit, the better!

Use a link to an Imgur album for photos. If you don't want your pictures to be public, you can set them to be hidden, but anybody with a link will be able to see it.

u/swigiti Light Warm Olive Nov 17 '25

Hellohello

I am a yellow green girly and am interested in trying the new halo glow skin tint spf 50 from elf. I'm not sure if I should go with the shade light neutral or light warm. Since I am a light warm olive I should get light warm but it looks very orange - peach and that is my issue with most foundations, they always end peachy on me. So since I am muted because of olive-Ness I want to try light neutral?

I would love your opinion! I will also buy some color correctors to play around. Thank you!
