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.

"Really love this foundation. The finish is amazing, and the coverage is neither too much nor too little. A little goes a long way with this product. I recommend getting shade-matched in person at Credo; the sales associates are extremely helpful! The only minor annoyance is that the packaging can get a little messy."
— Ela D. (5/5)
"Perfect coverage and texture. I love how hydrating this foundation feels."
— Maureen C. (5/5)
"This is my foundation! I've been using it for 5 years or so. It is buildable so you can add a little more for more coverage. This is good for me because I have melasma that can get better or worse and this covers it. If you need coverage that looks flawless is a great pick. I use a makeup primer typically, especially when I'm going to hot."
— Kerin G. (5/5)
"I am a lifelong makeup lover and this is one of the best foundations I’ve ever used. It is buildable, breathable and so pretty!!"
— Lilly B. (5/5)
"I've tried them all, and this is the perfect one for me. Excellent color match down to the undertone(which can be so hard for women of color), buildable coverage, lasts all day without budging as long as you set it properly, and a little goes a long way. Pair with the primer. You won't regret it!"
— Judith (5/5)
