Find Your Perfect Shade

1) Know your undertone

• Warm/Olive: veins look greenish; gold jewelry flatters.

• Neutral: a mix of green/blue; both metals work.

• Cool: veins look bluish; silver flatters more.

For Gulf complexions, Warm/Olive is common. Look for labels like W / Warm / Golden / Olive.

2) Pick your depth

Choose your shade depth (Fair / Light / Medium / Tan / Deep) against your neck, not your hand—avoids face/neck mismatch.

3) How to swatch (the right way)

Apply 3 stripes on the jawline, step into daylight, and wait a minute.
The right shade should disappear into your skin.

4) Oxidation check

If your base darkens after 10–15 minutes, try a half-tone lighter or a low-oxidation, heat-ready formula.

5) Skin tint vs foundation

• Skin Tint: everyday comfort, sheer–light coverage.

• Foundation: more coverage for events—choose buildable, breathable textures.

6) Pro tips

• Compatible primer (avoid heavy silicone over oily moisturizers).

• Let layers set for 2–3 min before powder/concealer.

• Correct discoloration lightly (around mouth/cheeks) before base if needed.

Quick summary:

Matching the right shade = better coverage and a natural result. Focus on undertones first, then depth, and experiment in natural light.
