Your original skin tone refers to the natural color of your skin without the influence of sun exposure or tanning. It's the color that remains relatively consistent, usually found in areas of your body that are less exposed to the sun, like the inner arms or under your underwear. To determine your skin tone, you can observe the color of your nail bed or pinch the skin under your arm. Does the tone appear reddish-orange, reddish-blue, pinkish-blue, peachy, or yellowish? This will provide a benchmark for your natural skin tone.
Remember, your original skin tone is influenced by genetics and is a key factor in determining your undertone. It's important to consider this when selecting makeup and skincare products for your specific skin needs.
