I am a novice and read up on some articles about what pearl colors/overtones goes well w/ skin tones. My skin tone is weird to explain. I'm olive-y on the arms and legs but I really don't know how to describe my facial skin tone.

I just posted a neck shot re: the PP monthly special and would like to get the experts' opinions on what kind of pearls would most complement me.

Here's the neck shot:

Here's my overall skin tone - honestly don't know how to describe it...olive?

Thank you pearl experts!
 
I am fair, but my coloring is almost-olive. As soon as I tan, I turn a golden olive color. Some pearl colors do nothing for me. It can be upsetting because some of the ones I like the best don't look good on me.

If you try laying different colors of pearl strands over the outside of your wrist or top of your hand, you'll see right away if they are enhanced or not. Then try them over the inside of your forearm and you'll get an idea of how they will look nearer your face.

Good Luck!
 
Judging by the ones you are wearing in the pic I would say the lavenderish pinks - that touch of blue makes the difference. If you tan then you might be good with peaches or they may disappear without trace on you, as they do on many (including me)

I'm not an expert, but...the pearls in your neck shot are popping out. They're beautiful! At least in this picture the colors are great with your skin tone.
