How to choose the metal color that best suits your skin tone?

Yellow, pink or silver?

Choosing the perfect jewelry is not only a matter of style and personal preference, but also of harmony with your skin tone. Skin color plays a fundamental role in enhancing the jewelry we wear, enhancing our natural beauty. Here is a guide on how to choose jewelry based on your skin tone.

The various complexions:

1. Light Complexion

People with fair skin tend to have pink, ivory, or pale skin tones. The best jewelry for this skin tone include:

  • Metals: White gold, silver and platinum. These cool metals complement the light undertone of the skin.
  • Gemstones: Diamonds, blue sapphires, amethysts and aquamarines. Light and cool colors enhance the luminosity of fair skin.

2. Medium Complexion

Medium skin tones, often with olive or golden undertones, allow for greater versatility in jewelry choices. Ideal options include:

  • Metals: Yellow gold and rose gold. These warm metals harmonize with golden skin tones.
  • Gemstones: Emeralds, rubies, topazes and turquoises. The intense and vivid colors blend perfectly with the medium complexion.

3. Dark Complexion

People with dark skin can experiment with a wide range of jewelry, benefiting from bold colors and rich metals. Recommended choices are:

  • Metals: Yellow gold, rose gold and bronze. These warm metals create a pleasant contrast with dark skin.
  • Gemstones: Blue sapphires, emeralds, garnets and rubies. The deep and saturated colored stones stand out beautifully against a dark complexion.

4. Cool vs. Warm Complexion

In addition to skin tone, it is useful to consider the undertone, which can be cool (blue or pink tendencies) or warm (yellow or golden tendencies).

  • Cool undertone complexion: Silver, platinum and white gold jewelry are ideal. Stones such as blue sapphires, amethysts and pearls are perfect for this undertone.
  • Warm undertone complexion: Yellow gold, rose gold and copper jewelry are the best option. Stones such as rubies, topazes, turquoises and corals blend well with warm undertones.

Remember that these are general guidelines and the most important thing is to feel comfortable and confident in the jewelry you wear. Don't hesitate to experiment and find unique combinations that express your personality and individual style.

Choosing the right jewelry for your skin tone can make a big difference in highlighting your natural beauty. By taking into account your skin tone and undertones, you can select metals and gemstones that complement and enhance your look. However, the golden rule remains the same: wear what makes you feel amazing!
