What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Usage
Apply this serum-based stick formula using a tapping motion with your fingertips to seamlessly blend on top of makeup, or swipe directly onto bare skin on the high points of the face. Layer for dewy radiance + skincare benefits until desired glow is achieved.
Pro-tip
Mix a swipe of BiomeBeam® into your foundation before applying to give skin an all-over luminous finish—perfect for dull or dry skin days.
Blend with your daily moisturizer or SPF to create your own glow drops. Wear it under makeup or solo for a healthy, dewy sheen that also supports skin barrier function.
Swipe over eyelids as a wash of luminous shimmer. It’s the easiest one-step eyeshadow for days when you want to look polished, fast.
Tap onto collarbones, shoulders, and décolletage for body luminosity without the stickiness or glitter of traditional body highlighters."
