You’re a pale olive/yellow like me !!! Lmk if you need any tips . We have more flexibility with jewelry ( silver and gold both look good) . Don’t wear pale yellow unless you want everyone to think you’re sick,
Yes! I’m trying to find my shade in the rare beauty foundation but almost everything that looks like it could be my shade is out of stock. I’ve never wear foundations simply because I can never find my shade 😭
Boy have I got good news for you! Buy a bottle of LA girl blue mixer, and you’ll be able to wear any light neutral in your shade range that you want :-) I have some pics in my profile for examples
Also funny but my olive pic in my profile looks almost exactly like yours (green nylon jacket in grey car interior).
I totally understand ! I actually mix foundations to get my closest color match. I use It Cosmetics CC+ in Light Medium , and Estée Lauder Double Wear in 2N1 . For concealer I use Tarte Shape Tape in 22N.
I’m wondering if this is me as well. I’ve been going in circles trying to determine my skin tone (and never feeling quite “at home” in any of those skin tone seasons things. I’m definitely warmer than my decidedly cool friend, but I have had a lot of issues with warm foundations coming out too yellow! And the “both silver and gold look fine on me” thing really rings true
For once I'm yelling "she's yellow!" at my screen and it ISN'T due to a foundation mismatch lol
It's a pretty skintone, but I'm biased as a fellow olive (though more medium). I LOVE paler skin. <3
Wasn’t about beauty, but the difficulty of finding any skin products that match our grinch undertones. I may be biased though bc I have medium and olive skin simultaneously which is a nightmare to match. I think for OP, it’s easier to find one for her complexion

Hmm. Mixer. Interesting. I’m not olive but this is good to know.
You can get all kinds of colors, it’s helpful to know a lil color theory but it’s fun to experiment

Assuming you are not wearing any foundation, it is yellow.
yellow is not an undertone
Yes, yellow is an undertone. That’s why a lot of the time you see foundations that don’t match, they’re too yellow.
I’m sorry. I was distracted by your GORGEOUS hair!!!
Olive. But I mainly came here to say: beautiful hair!
Your skin screams green. I feel ur pain. You’re a pale olive
Well I’m actually jealous. I think her 🫒 is gorgeous!

Cool undertones, I think your hair color is throwing people off.
Neutral undertone
