3-ZONE CIELAB SKIN COLORIMETER + LIVE METAL DRAPE

Upload a daylight selfie showing your face & neck

Stand facing natural window light without warm indoor lamps or beauty filters. Our detector samples your forehead, cheeks, and jawline so surface redness never tricks your undertone read.

Why Warm, Cool, Neutral & Olive skin react differently to metals

Instead of guessing from wrist veins, reading perceptual CIELAB warmth (b*) against green-to-pink balance (a*) across your forehead and jawline separates surface blush from true undertone.

Warm Golden

18K Yellow Gold & Antique Bronze

Golden b* warmth reflects rich yellow gold back onto the cheekbones so skin reads sun-lit rather than grey.

Cool Rosy

Sterling Silver, Platinum & Rose Gold

Crisp white metals clarify cool pink-blue undertones without introducing sallow yellow shadows.

Fair or Muted Olive

14K Champagne Gold & Satin Silver

Green-gold olive undertones clash with orange 24K gold and pink copper, thriving in pale champagne gold and pewter-silver.

Neutral Balanced

Champagne Gold & Two-Tone Stacks

Balanced warmth and coolness lets you wear mixed gold-and-silver stacks, soft rose gold, and satin finishes effortlessly.

FAQ

Is the Gold vs. Silver Jewelry & Undertone Test completely free?

Yes. Your CIELAB skin undertone read (Warm, Cool, Neutral, or Olive), ranked match scores across 5 jewelry metals, gemstone and eyewear hardware guide, and live split metal drape comparison on your photo are 100% free with no sign-up required.

How does it tell Olive skin apart from Warm or Cool undertones?

Most quick undertone quizzes confuse surface cheek pinkness with cool skin or golden olive tone with purely warm yellow skin. Our on-device colorimeter samples three un-made-up zones from 478 facial landmarks (cheek, jawline margin, and forehead) in perceptual CIELAB color space, comparing green-to-magenta balance (a*) against yellow-to-blue warmth (b*) to detect Fair, Cool, and Muted Olive undertones accurately.

Can I look good in both gold and silver jewelry?

Yes. If your skin sits in Neutral, Neutral-Warm, Neutral-Cool, or Muted Olive territory, harsh mirror-bright 24K yellow gold or icy chrome can overpower your skin while softer mid-temperature metals like 14K Champagne Gold, Brushed Satin Silver, or Rose Gold flatter effortlessly.

What photo works best for testing gold vs. silver?

Take a bare-faced photo facing an open window in indirect daylight with no warm indoor bulbs, beauty filters, or heavy bronzer. Keep your neck and jawline visible so the split jewelry drape sits naturally along your collar.

Is my photo kept private?

Yes. All 478-landmark detection, CIELAB undertone sampling, and live metallic drape rendering happen 100% locally inside your browser - your photo never leaves your device.
