We talk about warm and cool skin tones, and to add nuance, we classify skin tones into 4 categories: summer, winter, autumn, spring. To determine whether your skin tone is warm or cool, look at the color of the veins on your forearm. If they appear blue, you're a cool skin color. If they're green, you're warm. Similarly, if gold makes you stand out more, you're probably a warm color. If, on the other hand, it's silver, you're a cool color.
