HOW TO USE RIGHT SHADE OF CC CREAM

• Cool undertone – If you have blue or purple veins then its the cool undertone.
• Warm undertone – If you see yellow/orange or olive /green vein it’s the warm undertone. 
• Neutral undertone – If you have both green and blue veins it’s the neutral undertone.

Your next step is to determine your skin tone, as skin tones are different from your undertone, it is a shade of your skin  (light, medium, or dark). The last step is to look for the right formula depending on your skin type which could be normal, dry or oily, which means if you have dry skin try some moisturizing and hydrating foundation and if it’s oily skin then use the mattifying foundation that controls excess oil secretion.
