FIND YOUR PERFECT SHADE
OXYGENETIX
Oxygenetix is proud to provide shades using the blue base/ yellow base color system so everyone can find their perfect match. Both the Oxygenating Foundation and Oxygenating Acne Control Foundation come in 7 blue bases (Pearl, Ivory, Taupe, Walnut, Coco, Ebony, & Mahogany) and 7 yellow base shades (Opal, Creme, Beige, Almond, Honey, Tawny, & Chakra). By deciphering whether you are blue or yellow based you can easily find your foundation color.
Choosing the right foundation color for your skin will make you look younger and feel more confident!
STEP 1: ARE YOU BLUE BASED OR YELLOW BASED?
Analysing your colour spectrum:
We were all born with the natural instinct to gravitate towards colors in our spectrum. Take a look at the colors below and notice which row you are drawn to most. There may be colors you like and dislike from each row so try to see it as a whole.
OF THE ABOVE, WHICH COLOUR SCHEME ARE YOU MORE DRAWN TO?
People who are YELLOW BASED: Prefer summer, golden and bronzed colours
People who are BLUE BASED: Prefer wintery, darker colours; for example BURGANDY
Analysing your natural tones:
Our skin, eyes, and hair tones are all naturally harmonious. When analyzing your spectrum, be sure to take a look at your natural colors, not hair that has been dyed, or a face with makeup on it. You are naturally your spectrum and will continue to be, even when your hair turns grey, or you get freckles (reddish brown freckles are blue-based, golden brown freckles are yellow based).
Analysing your skin tone:
Yellow base undertones produce yellow, peachy pink skin tones. Hands will be yellow or golden with peach-pink knuckles. Darker skin will have a definite gold tone.
Blue base undertones produce rosy pink skin tones. The hands will be rose pink. Darker skin will have reddish undertones or a blue cast.
OTHER TIPS AND TRICKS:
Yellow based individuals:
- GREEN VEINS
