The best colors for wheatish skin with a cool undertone
Not sure of your undertone? Quick check: wrist veins look blue-purple; silver jewellery flatters you. If that sounds like you, here is the palette our stylists reach for — the colors that make wheatish skin glow, and the few that work against it.
Colors that flatter you
- Berry
- Navy
- Emerald
- Plum
- Dusty pink
- Charcoal
Colors to avoid
- Orange
- Golden yellow
- Rust
“Avoid” doesn't mean forbidden — it means these shades sit too close to your skin or fight your undertone, so keep them away from your face (fine in trousers, skirts or accessories).
Jewellery: gold or silver?
Silver. Wrist veins look blue-purple; silver jewellery flatters you.
