Warm undertones
Gold jewelry is considered a warm toned metal that complements the best on someone with a warm undertone, in a very luxurious way. If you have veins in an olive or green hue your undertone will probably be warmer. When talking about warm undertones, warm is considered to be more on the yellow, red or orange side.
Neutral undertones
If you have a neutral undertone, gold jewelry will work for you as well. If you have a hard time deciding if you have a warm or cool tone, you are probably neutral. People with neutral undertones typically have veins that are between the colors green and blue. The undertone is not considered yellow, red or pink, but something in between. For the most part, olive undertones are considered to be neutral.
Cool undertones
If you have a cooler tone in your skin with purple or blue veins, perhaps it has a pinky or blue hue, silver colored metals as white gold and platinum will be perfect for you. White gold has become the most popular metal For engagement and wedding rings, for all the right reasons. No matter hair or eye color, silver toned jewelry will suit the best if you consider yourself or your partner to have a cool undertone. Gold will often look to yellow against the skin, and if you have a pinky cool undertone, rose gold may make you look more pink.
Neutral undertones
Since people with neutral undertones in their skin can wear both gold and silver colored metals, white gold and platinum jewelry are great examples of metals that will suit someone with neutral undertones. Both white gold and platinum can be described as silver colored.
TIP
If you have a hard time choosing between gold or silver, let us give you some advice. If you have dark hair, silver colored metals will be more of a pop. Silver colored jewelry would also complement in a lovely way if you have blond hair and blue eyes. If you have lighter, warmer hair with brown eyes, gold jewelry will complement and melt in more with your tones.
Neutral undertones
Rose gold has a beautiful rosy hue that suits the absolute best on someone with a neutral undertone. The rosy golden hue can be harder to match, but is perfect for someone with a more neutral, perhaps olive complexion. Rose gold is a modern metal, which is stronger and less sensitive than yellow gold or white gold. The rosy toned metal is perfect if you love gold, but the yellow tone is a bit overbearing on your neutral skin.
