Haley Zitting: All right guys, hey, good morning. Oh, we're starting?
Male: This is the countdown, yup, you're good.
Haley Zitting: All right guys, (chuckles) we'll try this again.
Good morning, Monday morning, I hope you guys had a fabulous weekend.
Today we are talking about mistake-proof color matching. This is super easy.
Haley Jensen: We're making it simple and easy.
Everyone tends to overcomplicate color matching.
They don't know what foundation color to buy, how to help people.
It can be so simple.
Haley Zitting: So easy.
Haley Jensen: And we're going to teach you how to do it today.
- Yes, so we've color matched a lot of people. (Chuckles)
- Literally thousands, not an exaggeration.
We've literally color matched thousands of people.
We go to Beauty School, and we'll color match people at Beauty School.
- We just sit at a table all day color matching.
- All day, color matching people.
So if anyone knows how to color match, and help you find your right color...
- It's probably us. (Chuckles)
- Okay. So there are three color lines within our Savvy foundations.
And today we're going to focus on the cool and the warms,
and then we have an upcoming video
- Tomorrow.
- Talking about the dark foundation line.
So that's going to be something separate.
So look forward to that.
- The dark foundation color line are neutral colors.
So if you're warm or cool, it's right in between.
But our lighter foundation colors, there's warm and cool.
So you have to decide do you have cool undertones or warm undertones?
- And that's hard sometimes, especially
if you haven't grown up wearing make-up,
you're maybe unfamiliar with what that means.
It's so easy, okay? So warm undertones pull a little bit more yellow.
- They have like more golden in their skin.
So I have warm undertones in my skin.
- I mean you can see, like look at Haley's neck.
It's a little bit like yellow tone. I'm gonna just...
- So if you tend to have more like yellow in your skin,
or more golden undertones in your skin, you generally have warm undertones.
You can still be fair, you can still get really fair in the wintertime.
I'll be more pale. But I still have warm undertones.
- But she still pulls more yellow than pink.
Whereas a cool foundation or a cool undertone is more pink.
So if you look at your skin, it doesn't mean you're pale or fair.
You can be very tan and still have cool undertones.
It means you pull a little bit more pink.
So if you were to look at these foundations.
I wonder if we can just go show them the difference.
You can tell a major difference in the colors.
Hopefully you guys can kind of see.
- Pink or a yellow.
- So cool, and warm. And very different undertone of the foundation.
- Easiest thing that I like to explain to people,
is I like to give examples of celebrities.
And once you give this example of celebrities, that just like clicks in people's minds.
So celebrities with warm undertones are people like Kate Hudson,
Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Aniston.
Those people have warm undertones.
Celebrities with cool undertones are celebrities like...
- Anne Hathaway
- Adele. Nicole Kidman. So they have like that beautiful like porcelain look.
- And it comes more pink. Like it doesn't mean they're fair.
I mean Anne Hathaway can be tan. But it's just a pink undertone.
- And people with cool undertones tend to have more pink in their skin.
Like they have more pink knuckles, like pinkish-blue knuckles.
That's one of the easiest ways to tell.
Usually if I'm color matching someone, if I look at their knuckles,
if I'm kind of unsure, and they have more of the pink,
those blue knuckles, they tend to be more cool.
But generally speaking, would you say,
when we color match people probably 80 percent of the people are warm.
- Yeah. Well, and too, we didn't mention this, but you can be neutral.
So I actually am a neutral, and that means I can wear
either of the foundations and it actually looks good, and it's fine.
But what I found is when I went to Convention and got color matched,
I actually was color matched as a Cool Number 1.
And I went outside and I was like, this matches perfectly.
Like I had no line. But it just didn't look the way that I was used to looking.
And so I went home, and tried on all of the foundations,
and I actually found that I much prefer the warm toned line on my skin.
And we found that out at Beauty School too, is anyone that
kind of pulls a little bit of both, typically they'll prefer the warm color line
only because like I pull really pink through my cheeks and on my nose.
And so people will say, oh, you're cool toned.
But then like my forehead is yellow, and my jawline is yellow.
And so when I put on a cool foundation, it makes my cheeks
look almost even more pink which I don't love.
And so when I put on a warm foundation it neutralizes
that pink and matches the rest of my face.
- It kind of takes out some of that redness, if you have a little bit of redness.
And people just generally, if you are neutral,
they generally just feel happier in a warm.
- That's true.
- Warm Number 1 is pretty fair. Warm Number 2 is pretty light.
People just, if you're on the fence, we recommend personally,
to go with a warm line, or if you're neutral.
- Yeah, like Haley's wearing a Warm 2. And I'm wearing a Warm 1.
But like I said, I can wear a Cool 1, a Cool 2, and a Warm 2,
so it's kind of hard. But that's the awesome thing about this foundation too
is that it's very versatile, and very forgiving.
So if you're in a cool line right now, if you're in a Cool 1, Cool 2, Cool 3,
and you're like, I'm not really loving this color.
We always say try out switching to a warm tone, and see.
We always say Warm 1 or Warm 2.
Warm 3 takes a very specific person.
- You're really tan. Like people with olive skin tone really look good in a Warm 3.
I can wear occasionally, in the summer
when I'm like at my tannest moment. (Chuckles)
- But I could never wear it. Ever.
- I don't wear it very often.
- So if you're on the fence, I would say Warm 1 or Warm 2
and probably not a Warm 3.
- And it just depends on the look that you're going for.
If you want that Adele look, or that Nicole Kidman look, then you go for the cool tones.
If you don't want that look, you want to look more vibrant,
maybe have more of that golden skin tone --
- Like a yellow or the golden undertones.
- -- go for the warm. So it's really simple. That's really the basics of it.
People tend to get so confused when you throw in like the vein colors
and the jewelry colors, and the clothing colors.
Those can all help reassure your decision of what you've already chosen.
But it's not good to just decide what foundation color to go off of
by just your vein color, just what color of jewelry you wear,
because that's so relative.
- Yeah, and it's really up to preference.
So what she's talking about with the veins
is if you were to look at your vein on the inner part of your wrist,
if it looks blue, you're probably a cool tone.
If it looks green, you're probably a warm tone.
And if you don't really know, you could be neutral.
That's really how I am.
I like look and sometimes it looks green, sometimes it looks blue.
And it's really not mistake-proof.
- It confuses people, honestly, more than it helps them,
especially when we color match at Beauty School.
People are like, "Well, I have this vein color, and this vein color."
And it just tends to just get people really confused.
- So unless you look at it, and it's like green, green, green,
then we probably don't recommend using it as a way.
So if you're going to color match someone,
we always recommend getting a brush, something like this
that's pretty precise, and short-bristled.
Dipping it in the foundation, and testing it like right along here
on her cheek, down to her jawline.
Just so you can see if it matches her neck.
We never want a line, like a harsh line across the neck.
So make sure it matches both.
And a lot of times our faces do pull more color than our neck.
So you don't want the line to show. So whatever color...
- And your arm color isn't always necessarily the same color as your face.
Like if you're color matching on your arm,
it's not necessarily the same color as your face.
So it is good if you really want like a fool-proof way to decide what color you are.
See what color blends in.
Right here somewhere on your face.
- Another thing that we forgot to mention is within the line, there are numbers.
So it's 1, 2, or 3. 1 being the most fair, and 3 being the darkest.
So you kind of have to gauge by, I guess, your tone.
Not your tone, but your tan, like how dark you are.
So like I said, I'm a 1, she's a 2.
By the time it's summer here in Utah I'll be a 2, and she'll probably be a 3. (Chuckles)
- If I get super tan. We'll see. We'll see.
- So we hope this has helped you guys. It's really easy.
If you have questions, comment below.
We have a lot of events coming up too, so you're welcome to come find us,
and ask us (chuckles).
- And it's simple. You don't have to overcomplicate it. It's simple.
The colors are very forgiving.
So even if you run out of your Warm 2, you're wearing a Warm 1,
you'll still most likely, still look good. Be happy with it.
- Yup. So they're versatile, don't be afraid.
And if you're on the fence, this is just a summary, if you're on the fence,
probably a Warm 1 or a Warm 2.
So okay, guys, thank you so much for tuning in,
we hope this helps you guys, and have a great week.
- See ya! - See you later.
