I think it ultimately comes down to personal preference- I like the first 4 more because I feel I can see your face more clearly, in the last 4 I see the makeup first. I think your primary ‘quality’ is deep, rich colours but I find other than black, a lot of cool toned makeup seems to be frosty and light so it could be a case that it’s easier for you the honour the depth and richness with warm tones because they seem to be so much more easier to find?

I could be wrong since I haven’t tested this, but just based on my own experience as a cool, fair olive, even within the colors that should work for us, some are definitely better than others. I think your eye makeup looks cool-toned in all the pictures, and for me at least, that’s the most striking part of your look. It really makes your beauty stand out. As for the blush and lips, I don’t see much orange in them in the last four. They still lean a bit cool or at least look really natural. It just makes you look more alive and radiant.

Something else I’ve noticed about cool-toned olives is that it’s not just about physical coloring. Our overall vibe plays a big role too. Some cool-toned olives seem to have this really sweet aura about them, and pink looks extra good on them because it enhances that energy. (And then there are people like me, who look best in the most deathly grays possible🥲)

But in your case, I actually think the deeper shades suit you better than the light pinks in the first pictures. The richer tones seem to bring out more depth in your features and complement your vibe more. So maybe it’s about the depth of the shade rather than the tone?

Your hair is showing way more brassy/warm highlights in the last 4 photos (warmer makeup) which highlights warmer colors better VS your hair in the first set with cool makeup. I think cool makeup looks lovely on you.

If you can swing both however you could be neutral however I see green in your neck which is an indicator of being a cool olive. Generally, more green tends to lean cool and more yellow tends to lean warm on the olive spectrum.

Looks like your main trait is being muted toned, and temperature may be not that important. It's hard to say if you are more cool or warm toned because you need to compare cool and warm shades of similar muteness.

I know I'm cool toned, but bright pink or bright lavender in makeup looks a bit clownish on me. However if it's mixed with lots of grey undertones it's working great.

You look flawless 😉 you can still pull off some cool pink or berry colored blush if you choose to 🩷

The photo looks good but it’s impossible to definitively tell without a properly lit photo in natural lighting.

I always find myself wanting people to use more warmth. Not this time- this looks great! They compliment you very well.

Yes it totally works

Yess

I'd say you've nailed your look.

You can always play around with color on the eyes or lips for a special event or something like that. But other than that, I honestly think you look gorgeous and the warm tones are clearly where it's at for you.

Warmer ones look gorgeous on you! I have been really loving lately the cold makeup look where it’s light foundation plus blush similar to winter months your face gets red haha! It’s pretty though i think, and easy to achieve, i like Pinterest for makeup looks too if your looking for certain ones they have a nice selection of ideas.

I would like to see more colour cause our skin tones are similar and I am projecting ahahahah. You’d rock a burgundy lip!!! YOU LOOK ABS GORGEOUS RN THO!💕💕💕.

Not buying your OF’s. Downvoted and reported.

Google skin tone seasons. It’s more complex than just warm and cool and it’s SO helpful to know! You look like a light spring to me

I can already see you wearing gold and champagne eyeshadow with beiges, browns and rocking it!

The warm swatches look better on you, but from your face I would guess you’re more neutral. I think it’s pretty common for people with neutral undertones to be confused because it’s in-between warm and cool.

I would ordinarily think, "Fair, blonde, blue eyes cool", but the blues/greens on your wrist make you look bruised. The warm colors are more flattering. I'm now thinking neutral, but leaning warm.

Both! Low key I wear any color I feel whether it matches my skin tone or not, a lot of the time it’s about how to tie it together with your blush and maybe your outfit. Yellow doesn’t look the best on me but with the right blush I still get “omg so cute”

Does your current foundation shade match you? If so then I wouldn’t recommend trying to change your foundation shade. If you want to warm things up then I’d recommend doing it with a bronzer

No tips or tricks other than embracing experimentation (and failure).

Mixing foundation is just mixing expensive paint - and can be necessary to get a shade you like (I also have cool pale skin and the zone between being washed out and looking like an Oompla Loompa is narrow). It's just about experimentation and finding an appropriate hard non-porous surface to mix on (I've recycled smallest dishwasher safe bowls out there for dipping sauces, where as pro makeup artists have mixing pallets for a reason). It's a matter of experimentation to get the ratios, amount and application right. Another option is to use bronzer over the foundation to warm things up - but again that requires experimentation re: shade and application to your personal taste.

Search Zahia Dehar, you’d suit makeup like she did it

try this: pink blush, highlighter, a subtle eyeliner, mascara, subtle lashes on the outer corners and a pinkish lipstick :)

Are you sure you’re warm? I thought I was too but looking yellow doesn’t necessarily mean warm. Maybe you’re neutral leaning cool? Try berry and purple blushes. If those look good on you then you’re probably neutral leaning cool or just straight up cool. I lean cool and I have the same issue with some lipsticks. Or maybe you’re muted and the blushes you’re using are too saturated.

If you have a lot of yellow in your base makeup, the blue in a cool-toned pink blush sometimes mixes with the yellow to make a green tone which can flatter olive skin depending on your exact overtone. You may also just prefer the look of pink blush- I find that most warm blushes look like “blonzers” on me which can be pretty but looks very beachy and glam to me, I prefer pink cheeks because I think it’s cuter. 

I solved this problem, everyone! Turns out the blushes I believed to be "cool" weren't actually all that cool. To test this out, I bought a super cool-toned blush - Essence Lovely Lilac. It is a gorgeous light purple, but unfortunately it looks so bad on me. I look sick when I wear it. So I think the blushes that I believed to be cool pinks - Rare Beauty Hope and Bliss, NYX Sweet Cheeks in Babydoll etc. - were not as cool undertoned as I thought. Anyway, thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

wow you are just beautiful 😍 i really think you’ve got it down here!! the only thing i would add would maybe be some light lashes to add to the fairy whimsy-ness🥰💖

Lip liner is a bit thick and uneven

I second adding a lash! I think it would make your eyes really pop. And then I think you could also bring your eyebrows slightly closer together?? I think that would fit your face b well. Other than that everything is gorg 😍

do you pluck your eyebrows in the middle? if so I would let them grow a little closer together.

I think you’re lovely!

Only tips I’d offer is softening the brow and experimenting with alternative lip colors/formulations.

Warm! Def A24 INDIE ACTRESS LOOK! Hehhee

Warm

Warm definitely!

I dunno but pic #1 works for me

Warm tone
