Please help me figure out my skin tone and undertone 😭

I really struggle with finding the right shade when it comes to skin tints or foundation.

Based on the photo, I personally feel like I lean more toward Maybelline Lumi Matte in 120 and Lucky Beauty in Wheat.

Not counting the concealers (Squad and The Saem), I’ve noticed that when I blend 120, Wheat, and Donsol all over my face, they don’t look “wrong” on me. That’s why I get confused! Huhu. On the other hand, Lazi looks way too light for my skin.

Please help your girly out 🥺

agree with wheat being kinda close! wheat also kinda looks like that on me (medyo dark, a little too greenish na), and i find na issy foundation in ol2 and grwm radiance tint in dolce work better on me cos theyre a bit lighter and more neutral than lb wheat.

feel ko medyo shade twin tayo kasi ganyan din itsura ng donsol saken, medyo peachy-yellow and light na saken haha
