Did you know that you can choose your jewelry metal and color to enhance your skin undertone? Similar to how skin tones can be paired with color seasons to compliment complexion, certain jewelry metals look better on certain undertones! If you follow me on Instagram or TikTok, you may have seen the video explaining how to choose jewelry finishings to accentuate your skin undertone. Here is an in-depth look into how you can become an expert in picking out rings, necklaces, and earrings to suit your skin!
Choose Jewelry Metal Based on Skin Tone
Cool Undertones
Cool undertone people probably burn easily and their veins will appear blue. This skin tone is flattered by cool metal colors, such as silver or white gold.

Neutral Undertones
However, neutral undertone people have a mix of the two skin tones, and have a mix of blue/green veins. This skin tone is flattered by any metal color, which changes with the amount of skin’s sun exposure. People with this skin undertone look amazing in rose gold!

Warm Undertones
Comparably, warm undertone people will most likely tan easily and their veins will appear green under the skin. This skin tone looks best in warm-tone metals such as yellow-gold or copper.

September 28, 2023This is very helpful and definitely explains why I probably have tended to gravitate to silver jewelry. Now I know that silver works well my cool skin tone! I love the trick of looking at what color veins appear to determine skin tone too.

October 5, 2024Hi, I’m a true born Redhead (Medium Strawberry Blonde) with light gray-blue eyes. My skin is fair. No freckles, my veins are more blue than green. I burn then tan. I can wear both silver and gold jewelry. My wardrobe colors are greens, purples, browns, grays, and blues. My hair stylist tells me I have a warm undertone. I DON’T AGREE WITH HER. Can you help?
