This is so helpful for us fair skinned people, so many things that appear light enough either just aren’t or the undertones are too yellow. I don’t self tan and I can’t be in the sun for too long due to medical issues so it’s nice to see someone do a naturally fair skinned video, so thank you!
I love fair porcelain skin. It's so beautiful and is a great pallette for showing off pastel colors like a flower garden. It's poetic and has a heavenly glow. Tyty. 🍃
this is so helpful for me!! all the beauty influencers ive watched are much more tan than me, and i physically cant get any darker naturally so i appreciate this a ton!
This is awesome!! I'm the same with having a hard time figuring out my undertones, because I'm super pale and my wrist veins look blue, but I also feel like pale yellowish ivory foundations match me better than pink or peachy ones, and I also find that, while cool-toned pinks look ok on me, warm pinks and corals look better. I'm excited to try these products out! :)
I have the same problems... some foundation can be too white and too pink that I look sick and washed out... I struggle so much to find the right undertone for me... unfortunately I have redness on my skin and at each Sephora or makeup counter I went... they always like "OK cool and pink undertone".... like I juste have redness 😔
It took me forever to figure out I have a more neutral undertone. It probably leans a bit cool, but being in the middle gives you more flexibility in which tones you can wear. But the neutral foundations are a life saver.
I used to have the redness issue with my skin. I finally realized it was because my skin was DRY! Once I started using a daily moisturizer along with my sunscreen, the redness drastically improved.
This!! I have very fair skin (like you), but i also have hazel brown/greenish eyes with copper hair. I never know what to wear. I'll try to wear my contrast in a minimum... Thank you for your tips!!
I’m a similar skin tone to your natural complexion, and I’m def more on the pale olive spectrum. Sophie Marcs has a RUclips channel that’s dedicated almost entirely to olive skin. She has so many helpful tips and tricks videos.
Hi Lindsey this video was so very helpful for me thank you so much. Can you do a video please on the best makeup brushes to use and what type and brand for each specific technique? This would be so wonderful to see. Ty 😊
The Charlotte tilbury peach corrector is great for fair skin it’s the best one I’ve tried, I also tried the Milani supercharged under eye tint in pink and it’s alright but not great. You can also use the CT peach corrector blemishes but for hygiene purposes don’t double dip from the pot to the blemish as with other products
Awesome video!! Saved it to my videos, super helpful! I’m very close to your skin tone, also have major redness but yet am not cool toned and look super odd in cool toned foundations. When I don’t self tan I find that colors look differently and I just always have trouble finding blushes, eyeshadows and especially lip colors that work and compliment everything so love this! Thankyou so much 🥰
Same issue here 😔❤ the worst is the sale assistant in makeup store who immediately assume we are cool and pink undertone because we have redness on our face which is not our undertone!
THANK YOU for linking the products. My struggle is a combination skin (dry easily, gets oily easy, my hair is the same), with a cool undertone (its so hard to find good foundation, plus the need for both a warm months and cold months foundation), PLUS dark under eye circles run in the family, not to mention the diagnosed rosacea I have steroid cream for ugh!
Same. I was on board all along - but the oversized lashes blew the casual daytime look for me. It's a great and very informative video, regardless of the oversized lashes.
I like your videos. My skin is as fair as yours, but I am a LOT older. It's been hard for me to find many women on RUclips that are as white as I am. I discovered on my own, that eyebrow setting powder trick. My brows are so light that it took me YEARS to get comfortable with eyebrow products, they always made me feel like Groucho Marx lol. I've finally gotten the hang of it now that I'm in my 50s. Lol
The tips were generally helpful. I've stopped using white mix in lightened because I feel like they make the shade more ashy looking on my skin. And I need a super super light red/rosy toned bronzer that doesn't exist. I've noticed many "fair" youtubers aren't as fair as they think they are. You seem more on the edge between light and fair.
Finally a YT channel for my pale skin... like you, I used fake tan too but I am tired sometimes I wished pale skin would be more embraced in our western culture ❤
For anyone interested, there's an indie brand called Life's Entropy that has affordable Particle Coutour sticks in really interesting shades you don't typically find on the market.
Isn't it ironic pale skin and especially freckles are so trendy now I was teased mercilessly when I was growing up for not being tan I tried to do everything I could to not look like myself but now I've embraced my natural beauty rather than work against it
I think you’re really similar in tone to me. Without fake tan, I’m very pale olive (but have a lot of redness on my face) and I struggle ssooo much finding foundations that don’t look crazy pink on me 😖
I loveeeee your face and eye makeup!! I’m a redhead and I’ve alwaaays struggled with the finding the right colors that compliment my skin tone, rather than contrasting it and you’ve given so many good tips! However, I neverrrr like the orangey finish with the eyeshadow. I’ve used the same techniques as you for my eyes, using blush and light brown eyeshadows, and I get a similar outcome. But I’m not a big fan of the orange tone to it. Do you have any tips for using different light natural colors?
I think hardly anyone can wear those pink/peach "cool" toned foundations. Idk who they're for. No one is the color of a peach, let alone after color correcting for redness. The pink undertones also make those foundations super dark. They call them fair as if adding that much red pigment to a foundation doesn't make it darker! I have a "cool" undertone and I'm not even that fair but I can't wear any of those pink toned foundations.
You're probably neutral leaning cool. If you were COOL COOL you're veins would be purpleish. Blue veins are a sign of more neutral, but I would argue you're leaning slightly toward the cools if you can't pull off too many yellows or warms. For example, that shirt you're wearing is SOOOOO warm, it's yellowing you a touch, it's washing you out. Though if you find you can usually pull off that color really well, then I might argue it's particular saturation doesn't suit you as much. But those are just my initial observations, especially with tastes in colors you don't have to listen to a thing I or anyone else tells you. But these things in conjunction give me the impression that neutral leaning cool is your undertone.

I love videos for fair skin. My skin is also difficult to categorize. I'm sort of neutral warm and fair/light.

I've actually realized I am cool-toned but I'm under yellow light so often that I couldn't tell!
Same thing for me! I always struggled and then after I found neutral undertone options it's been like a miracle for matching!
I used to have the redness issue with my skin. I finally realized it was because my skin was DRY! Once I started using a daily moisturizer along with my sunscreen, the redness drastically improved.
Coral colors look beautiful on you
dude I feel you on the “I should be cool toned but it just doesn’t work” situation.
This!! I have very fair skin (like you), but i also have hazel brown/greenish eyes with copper hair. I never know what to wear. I'll try to wear my contrast in a minimum... Thank you for your tips!!

Thank you for being helpful and just getting straight to what works for you. 💚
Thank you for watching! 💕
What do you think about the westman atelier contour stick in shade ‘biscuit’?🤎 I’m fair but not as much as you I think
Great video! You look amazing! I'm always looking for pale skin products for my makeup routine.

Would've been nice to see you use a brown, or color mascarra vs big/heavy black false lashes.

So helpful!
I think I need to practice more to get a nice foundation like this.
I don’t have fair skin but I enjoyed this video. It was very thorough and thoughtfully made 🙋🏻♀️
Thank you so much! 💕
Girl, you never steer me wrong! I had to do some shopping! You always recommend cool, new stuff I've never heard of. 😁
Lol so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 💕
I hope you’re having a great week! I can’t wait to hear what you think of this video 😊✨

Try to tan the skin it willingly look better than pale
Vitamins d will get from sunlights
What specific Ecotools sponge are you using for the foundation? 🙂
Finally a YT channel for my pale skin... like you, I used fake tan too but I am tired sometimes I wished pale skin would be more embraced in our western culture ❤
Definitely! Thank you for watching 💕

thank you so much for this 🙏🙏🙏
Same here. I'm fair olive so is a struggle to find a good match that isn't orange, too pink or too peach.
I suspect I’m fair olive as well! NYX makes some really good more olive undertone foundations
I think you’re really similar in tone to me. Without fake tan, I’m very pale olive (but have a lot of redness on my face) and I struggle ssooo much finding foundations that don’t look crazy pink on me 😖

What lashes are those? I unfortunately can't follow your links since Ulta blocks foreign ips...
They’re the kiss 01 lashes! Thanks for watching 💕
How can I contour my nose though!!
I love the way you talk. You’re so cute.
Thank you!! 💕
This look reminds me of Christina Aguilera in burlesque.
ladies if you have bad under eyes please please understand they mean YOU NEED B vitamins!
You're probably neutral leaning cool. If you were COOL COOL you're veins would be purpleish. Blue veins are a sign of more neutral, but I would argue you're leaning slightly toward the cools if you can't pull off too many yellows or warms. For example, that shirt you're wearing is SOOOOO warm, it's yellowing you a touch, it's washing you out.

You look neutral to me
I think your blush and eyeshadow are too dark. You are a pretty girl. Don't hide it.
«Fair» sounds weird. White skin will be better:)
Fair/pale is more often used because if you search white it’s more often associated with race than tone.
