To work out your best color, observe your skin tone. If you have a cool skin tone (pink or blue undertone), jewel tones like sapphire and emerald are great. For a warm skin tone (yellow or golden undertone), earthy colors like brown, yellow, and olive are ideal. Using a color analysis method like draping fabrics near your face in natural light can also help identify flattering colors.
