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.

Reviews

Obsessed

"I’ve tried other vit c serums, one of the “more popular “ costing over $130, and they do not compare to Mara’s. I can’t wait to put this on my skin in the AM. I put on the peptides first , give it a minute & put on the vit c. My skin has never looked so good. I can’t say enough. , magic potion!! (Pics have no filter , one is no makeup , the other is minimal; tinted serum , blush. )"

lori t. (5/5)

So far so good!

"Looking forward to using my new Mara products, especially the vitamin C serum. Since I have barely used for a week now, I can really only speak to how it feels which I like because it spreads like an oil yet not too greasy. The packaging is lovely. Time will tell if it delivers as many reviewers say but so far so good!"

Linda Y. (5/5)

Allison M. (5/5)

100% recommended

"I loved this vitamin C serum and I recommend it. It's a lightweight oil that absorbs very quickly, has a delicious scent that reminds me of the sea, and leaves the skin with a beautiful glow while helping to reduce dark spots and signs of aging, and calming redness. Gifted by themarabeauty."
