Makeup and Jewelry Shades That Actually Match Your Skin Tone
Most people guess their way through lipstick and jewelry shopping. Let's stop the guesswork and find the specific metals and shades that make your skin glow instead of looking dull.
Finding the right lipstick starts with your undertone. In this video, I explain how to choose the best nude and red shades based on whether you have a warm or cool undertone, and show why a shade that works for one person might not work for another.
This is a simple but effective trick for finding the right lipstick intensity for your skin tone. By comparing shades in grayscale, you can find a lipstick that has the same value as your skin, creating a balanced and flattering look.
Your best jewelry choices are linked to your color season. I explain how to find your season by seeing if you shine in bright spring colors, earthy autumn tones, rich winter jewel tones, or soft summer pastels.

About Beyond Clothes: Makeup, Jewelry & Accessories
Stop buying lipsticks and accessories that just end up sitting in your drawer. If you have a warm undertone, wearing cool-toned silver might make you look tired, and the wrong nude lipstick can make your face look washed out. I use your natural skin tone to identify exactly which metals—like gold, silver, or rose gold—and which lipstick hues will balance your features, making you look fresh and vibrant every time you step out.
Finding your best colors is more than just about your clothes. Often, we feel 'nothing looks good on me' because our accessories and makeup are clashing with our natural coloring.
The Science of Your Skin Tone
Indian skin tones are incredibly diverse, spanning across warm, cool, and neutral undertones. My process involves looking at your skin's reaction to different elements:
- Jewelry Mapping: We test gold vs. silver vs. rose gold. If you have a warm undertone, you likely shine in gold or antique brass. If you're cool-toned, silver, platinum, or white gold will brighten your face.
- Lipstick & Makeup: The 'grayscale' trick is a game-changer. I help you find the right depth and intensity of lipstick—whether you need a deep brick red, a cool berry, or a warm nude brown—so you aren't just guessing at the beauty counter.
- The Pearl Guide: Even pearls have undertones. We’ll find out if you should be reaching for creamy golden pearls or crisp white and pink ones.
Why This Matters
When you stop buying based on trends and start buying based on your personal color season, two things happen: you save money on products that don't suit you, and you build a collection of makeup and jewelry that works together seamlessly. Whether you're in Bengaluru visiting my HSR Layout studio for a full analysis or doing this virtually, we’ll move beyond trends to find what is objectively flattering on you.
