A few things to remember before we answer “What is my skin undertone?” once and for all. 

Skin tone and undertone are not the same thing. Skin tone can change over time due to weather, sun damage or age. But undertones stay the same, even if you get tan or darker in the sun.

That’s great news  because it means you only have to figure out your undertones once. 

Fair-skinned people can have warm undertones and dark-skinned people can have cool undertones.

It’s a mix-and-match world, baby, and that’s a beautiful thing!

That said, if you want a general rule, it’s this: 

There are a few tips when it comes to answering, “What is my skin undertone?”
