Choosing the perfect jewel for each occasion and for each outfit is an art that, if you manage to master, you will be able to create your own style. But there is a detail that we tend to ignore when choosing a piece: the color of our skin.

 
Let's see some tips to know if gold or silver jewelry suits you best depending on your skin tone.

Tell me what your skin type is and I will tell you what your ideal jewel is
Normally we usually talk in terms of white or brown skin. But the truth is that between the two there are infinite nuances... And many times it is somewhat difficult to differentiate with certainty in which group your skin is.

An effective solution to avoid doubts is to replace the concepts of white skin or brown skin with cold skin or warm skin...
Cold skins are the whitest, those in which the veins are seen in a bluish tone.

As the skin begins to darken, an increasingly greenish tone can be seen until, in darker skin, they stop being green. These are the warm skins.

Is it important to know what your skin tone is in order to know what type of jewelery will look best on it? Yes, absolutely yes, because not all metals, nor all stones stand out in the same way on all skins.

THE PERFECT JEWELRY FOR COLD SKIN

We could summarize it in a bet on white on white. Therein lies the key.

The whitest or coldest skins cry out for silver-colored metals to shine even more.
Silver and white gold are the best allies for this type of skin; The reason is very simple: the reflection of these metals combines perfectly with the reflections of the whitest skins.

The same does not happen with gold, since this tone, instead of highlighting the skin, like the previous ones, rather pales it.
