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

Great, fragrance free shampoo

"This is an excellent daily shampoo with no fragrance. I found that it wasn't great with my color treated hair, but I use it every now and then as a clarifying shampoo. My husband uses it every day on his silky silver hair. He loves it!"

marlene w. (5/5)

Works!

"This is my second time buying this. I love that it doesn’t have a smell and it really works."

Melissa M. (5/5)

Fave shampoo

"The primary reason I got this is because it’s unscented. It acts like a clarifying shampoo so cleans my scalp well from styling products. My hair seems healthier the longer I use it (been using for 2 years now)"

Jessica G. (5/5)

Great for sensitive people

"I’ve purchased this shampoo several times and have loved it. I love that it’s fragrance free and it’s just the right amount of cleansing. It doesn’t dry my hair out. I pair it with an Innersense conditioner that I like."

Robyn M. (5/5)

Love it

"My hair is so much softer and healthier. I like that it is unscented"

jennie c. (5/5)

My favorite

"After trying a few "clean" shampoos (Innersense and Under Luna) this one blows them out of the water. Very sudsy and does a great job getting all the product build up out of my hair. My hair looks get!"

Layne J. (5/5)

Best shampoo

"Love the suds and makes my hair feel squeaky clean and strong"

Maura (5/5)

Great

"works great on my scalp"

Fiala (4/5)

Clean & Hydrated

"Cleanses scalp and hair well without stripping and drying. This is important for thin curly hair like mine. Washed my hair with this for the first time a few days ago and my scalp still feels so clean and hydrated."

Heather (5/5)

Amazing

"So great"
