These are tips I received when I attended a grooming course while I was working with a bank a couple of years ago…

Skin have warm undertones or cool undertones and based on this, you will know whether you are best suited in warm colours or cool colours. Warm skin tones have yellowish undertones while cool skin tones have blue undertones.

This is how we tested our suitability:

Wear a white shirt and the test will require a peach scarf and a blue scarf. Hold the peach scarf against your face and look at yourself in the mirror. Then, do the same for the blue scarf. Do you look better with the peach scarf or blue scarf? If peach suits you better, you have warm skin tones. However, if blue looks better on you, it means you have cool skin tones.

If you have warm skin tones, you will look good in earth tones colour such as peach and gold. Those with cool skin tones will look great in black, blue and any colours that has a bluish tinge
