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

Will be repurchasing again & again.

"My hands get a lot of use & abuse in a household full of littles - always cooking, cleaning, changing diapers, etc. It's difficult to keep the skin healthy during the dry fall & winter months so I've been on the hunt for a solid hand moisturizer. I couldn't be more pleased with this product. There's no fragrance, it's emollient without being thick or greasy, absorbs quickly, and provides immediate relief. I've been using it consistently for the last 6 months & have seen improvement in the skin's resilience. I will keep this one on hand year-round!"

Best Hand Cream!

"Can't live without this hand cream. I hate any hand lotions with fragrance or that leaves sticky residue. This absorbs quickly leaving clean hands and obviously moisturizes my extremly dry hands!"

Perfect for the winter

Kristina F. (5/5)

perfect hand cream

"love this, another winner from necessaire. rich but not greasy. love"

michelle w. (5/5)

This is the one!

"There's a reason this is often out of stock. It's not oily or greasy feeling and just takes a small amount to moisturize weightlessly. At the same time the formula is thick enough as to sink in well and hydrate your hands."

Kim N. (5/5)

Love

"My favorite hand cream for everyday in my purse. Very moisturizing and not greasy."

Julie H. (5/5)

perfect everyday cream

"I’ve been looking for a handcream that was super moisturizing, yet not to heavy, and after a few unsuccessful purchases, I think I found it."

Christina H. (5/5)
