Do you look better in silver jewelry? Then you lean cool. Does gold make you glow like an ancient god? That’s warm. Both look good? You guessed it—neutral (and you also have a spare $50 for both, which I respect). Funny how a simple necklace can unlock your skin’s secrets, huh?
But here’s a side note: If you’re like me and you hate wearing jewelry, just visualize your most flattering metal. If the thought of gold makes you cringe, that’s a clue. Your brain knows more than you think about your own undertone.
The Sun Reaction Clue
Think about how your skin reacts to the sun. If you burn easily and turn red like a lobster, you’re cool. If you tan quickly and smoothly, you’re warm. If you burn, then tan, then burn again—classic neutral chaos. Your skin has commitment issues, and that’s okay.
But wait—don’t go sunbathing just to figure this out. Sun damage is real, and your future dermatologist will not be amused. Instead, just mentally recall your worst sunburn from high school. That memory alone is enough.
