It has to do with color theory and basically what shade your skin is. For example, to find out what your undertones are:
-which looks better on you, gold or silver jewelry? Gold jewelry=warm undertones, silver=cool, both=neutral.
-look at the veins in your wrist, do you see green or blue veins? Green=warm, blue=cool, both=neutral.

I'm personally neutral, I look best in silver jewelry but see green veins, I tan more than I burn, my face doesn't have a reddish tint to it (if you burn more, you're likely cool toned, if you tan you're warm. If your skin tends to look pinkish with nothing on it, you're cool).

That means you're probably warm. Do you see blue or green veins? What color jewelry looks best on you?

Go to the editorial section in beautylish and look up how to find your undertone and they should be helpful pieces on finding your undertone.
