#TAKE PINK TONES OUT OF FOUNDATION SKIN#
Medium: Often referred to as ‘olive’ skin tone, is a well-balanced neutral tone that tans easier when exposed to the sun. If you are this skin tone you will find that it burns a lot easier when exposed to the skin and requires extra protection. Light: Light or fair skin tones tend to be more sensitive to sun exposure and their genetic background comes from a colder climate reign like Northern Europe where the skin didn’t require a high level of melanin to protect the skin from the sun. This is contributed by your genetic makeup & also the amount of time you spend exposed to UV rays. Skin tone is usually broken down into 3 different categories Light, Medium & Dark, these are determined by the amount of pigment or melanin in your epidermis (outer layer of skin).
