Has the girl at the makeup counter ever told you that you have very "blue" undertones?
化妆品柜台的女孩有没有告诉过你，你的皮肤底色发青？
Or do you have a love/hate relationship with peach? As in, you love the color, but it doesn't seem to love you.
或者你和粉色之间又爱又恨吗？就是说，你喜欢这颜色，但它似乎不喜欢你。
What causes people to have flattering and clashing colors for their skin tone, and how do you determine which colors are best for you?
是什么原因让人们的肤色看起来那么讨人喜欢又不协调呢？你怎么知道哪一种颜色最适合你呢？
We've got all the answers for you right here.
我们这里有所有的答案。
First steps. To figure out your true skin tone, you need to look more than skin-deep.
第一步。要弄清楚你真正的肤色，你需要观察的不仅仅是表皮。
While the surface color of your skin can change with sun exposure, reactions to medication, or medical conditions like rosacea, your skin tone is actually determined by the undertones that come through.
虽然你皮肤的表层颜色会随着日晒、药物反应或红斑痤疮等疾病而改变，但你的肤色实际上是由皮肤的底色决定的。
This confusion about undertones versus surface color is why we pick out foundation or powder that looks great in the tube but clashes horribly once we try it on.
这种对底色和表色的混淆，就是我们为何会挑选一些粉底或扑面粉，虽然包装中的看起来很不错，但一旦涂上就会很不协调。
First, make sure your skin is clear and free of any cosmetics or lotions, which could affect the results.
首先，确保你的皮肤是干净的，没有任何可能影响效果的化妆品或乳液。
If you just washed your face, wait about fifteen to thirty minutes until any redness from scrubbing fades.
如果你刚洗过脸，等待大约15到30分钟，直到任何因擦洗而产生的红润消失。
Make sure you use natural daylight to examine your skin tone, as artificial lighting can change the appearance of your skin's undertones.
确保使用自然光源来查看你的肤色，因为人工照明会改变你的皮肤底色。
What hue are you? The simplest test uses a plain white piece of paper. Hold it up to your face and compare how your skin looks in contrast.
你的是什么颜色呢？最简单的测试方法就是使用一张普通的白纸。把纸举到脸前，对比一下你的皮肤。
If your skin looks yellowish, greenish, or light brown, then you likely have a warm skin tone.
如果你的皮肤看起来有点微黄、绿色或浅棕色，那么你的很可能是暖色皮肤。
If your skin looks pink, rosy, or blue, then you have a cool skin tone. If your skin looks gray or ashen, then you're a neutral skin tone.
如果你的皮肤看起来是粉色、玫瑰色或蓝色，那么你的是冷色皮肤。如果你的皮肤看起来是灰色的，那么你的就是中性色皮肤。
If you have a skin condition like acne, rosacea, or if you're extremely tanned, ask a friend to use the paper test on the crease behind your ear instead, which is less likely to be affected by these variables.
如果你有粉刺、红斑痤疮等皮肤问题，或者晒得很黑，请朋友用纸测试你耳后的皱纹，这样不太可能受到这些因素的影响。
Next, flip your hand palm up and take a peek at your veins in the hand and wrist. If your veins appear to be blue or purple, you have cool skin.
接下来，将你的手掌向上翻转，看看你手上和手腕上的静脉。如果你的静脉呈蓝色或紫色，说明你的是冷色皮肤。
If they appear green, then you have warm skin. If it's hard to tell one way or the other what color they favor, then you have neutral skin.
如果它们是绿色的，那么你的暖色皮肤。如果很难分辨出他们喜欢什么颜色，那么你的就是中性色皮肤。
How does your skin react to the sun? People who tan easily instead of burn usually have warm skin tones.
你的皮肤对阳光有什么反应呢？容易晒黑而不被晒伤的人通常是暖色皮肤。
People who burn rather than tan usually have cool skin tones. And if that weren't enough, there are also exceptions.
晒伤而不是晒黑的人通常是冷色皮肤。如果这还不行，也有例外。
For example, women with dark, ebony skin that doesn't burn can also have cool undertones.
例如，深色的乌黑色皮肤不会晒伤的女性也可能是冷色皮肤。
People who are neutral may fall into either group with regards to tanning or burning.
中性色皮肤的人也可能会被晒黑或晒伤。
But neutrals will not have any obvious appearance of olive, yellow, or ruddy skin.
但中性色皮肤的人不会有任何明显的淡褐色、黄色或红润的皮肤。
Warming up. If you've got warm skin tones, you join the likes of Claire Danes, Jessica Alba, Kim Kardashian, and Beyoncé.
热身。如果你是暖色皮肤，那就是与克莱尔·丹尼斯、杰西卡·奥尔芭、金·卡戴珊和碧昂丝这样的明星一样的肤色。
For you, the best colors are rich reflections of nature. On the warm side of the color wheel, you should turn to red, peach, coral, orange, amber, gold, and yellow.
对你来说，最适合的颜色是比较自然的。在色轮的暖色部分，你应该倾向于红色、桃红色、珊瑚色、橙色、琥珀色、金色和黄色。
You should also look great when you wear "warmer" versions of cool colors, like olive, moss, orchid, and violet-red.

Neutrals that are best for you include taupe, cappuccino, cream, and mushroom gray.

Bright blues, emeralds, and deep purples will look great, along with frosty shades of lavender, ice blue, or pink.
亮蓝色、祖母绿和深紫色都很不错，再配上淡紫、冰蓝色或粉色都很不错。
On the warm side, you can turn to ruby, bright rosy red, or super-pale yellows. With neutrals, you can rock cool gray, bright white, and navy.
暖色的一面，你可以选择红宝石色，明亮的玫瑰红，或超淡黄色。中性色的可以搭配冷灰色、亮白色和海军蓝。
Try to avoid orange, tomato red, and strong yellows, which can clash with your skin completely.

As a neutral, you can wear anything on the color wheel — but it's typically best to go for softened or muted versions of a color instead of the brighter ones.
中性色皮肤使得你可以穿任何颜色——但通常最好选择柔和的颜色，而非明亮的颜色。
Choose colors like dusty pink, jade green, cornsilk yellow, or lagoon blue. For neutral colors, turn to off-whites, coffee, mid-range grays, and black.
可以选择灰粉色、翡翠绿、米绸色或浅蓝等颜色。对于中性色，可以选择灰白色，咖啡色，中成灰和黑色。
Oversaturated colors like electrical blue and magenta can overwhelm your neutral skin tone, but there's one big exception to this: never be afraid to wear a bright, true red — you will look amazing.
过度饱和的颜色，比如铁蓝色和品红色，会掩盖了你的中性肤色，但也有例外：永远不要害怕穿明亮的大红色——你会看起来很漂亮。
