Q: How do you know what kind of "skin tone" you have, or what "undertones" your skin has? I've never been quite sure. I think I have pink undertones, but how can I be sure? I always read advice on makeup and hair colors with reference to what kind of undertones your skin has, but it's useless to me if I don't know what mine has. I am pale and tend to freckle AND tan if I stay out in the sun. I have medium brown hair.
You'll never be 100% sure unless you go to the makeup store or makeup aisle and let the people help you out.
I actually don't think someone can tell what skin tone they have unless they've been trained...because you could be one tone off and it'll look completely different.

Just go to the makeup counter and ask for help...it's free and you'll be 100% sure of the results.

Probably the best advice I've gotten. At least I know I'm not just dumb for not being able to tell.. hehe... thanks!
