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
STEP ONE: Use the takesumi brightening bar daily in the shower. Moisten the bar and lather in the underarm region for 30 seconds to allow the actives to penetrate the area before rinsing off.
STEP TWO: Follow with the takesumi brightening deodorant for speed in brightening results. Apply to clean, dry underarms.
Do not use deodorant after shaving or waxing. Always shave at night and allow the skin to calm down before applying deodorant .
