here's the thing with olive skin...you're tan after 5 minutes under the sun in summer, and become snow white in the winter. it's so hard to find shades that are consistent through all seasons...

[phoebehywong]

We need to band together to create a whole olive skin tone makeup brand 😭

[always_cornelia]

So my art teacher in year 7 told me my skin colour was olive, and I hated it because I thought she was telling everyone that I was green, man should I have listened to her.

[majaratkovic]

For anyone struggling to to find their shade, you could buy a green color corrector and mix a tiny bit into your foundation! A trick by one of professional makeup artists who did my makeup :)

[lenicehisatugo]

Nothing can describe better my ENTIRE journey to find my foundation shade than “when I tried warmer shades it was too yellow and cooler shades it was too pink”. God, I relate to this so much

[MadamMopGee]

I’m a very pale olive, I went for a foundation match telling the artist that I’m olive and just need a foundation that will match me since it’s difficult. She told me that “you can’t be pale and have olive skin, if you’re olive then you’re going to be tanned” 🙄 needless to say, not many companies make olive foundation tones for pale skin

[kakapupukachu]

"you might look kind of sick when you don't wear make up"

yes, yes that is me.

[HaleyKimaking]

Do you think you have olive skin too?🤪

[muslihaha]

I’ve always thought I had a warm undertone with “burnt yellowness” but this video has convinced me I have olive undertones!

[Riri_mhz]

I just figured out that I have an olive undertone and my skin looks brown/yellow/ grey some days. A separate video about the foundations and concealers for olive undertones would be much appreciated 🥰

[jessjms]

Yess please make a foundation and concealer recommendation for olive undertone! :) I have yet to find one that matches perfectly

[Shamrockbabe]

Okay, this is life changing!
I always assumed that because I’m (Southeast) Asian and on the paler side that I’m yellow/golden/warm and yet I continually struggled to find a foundation/concealer that looks natural. The veins in my wrist are mostly blue but also green. Watching this video was a total Eureka moment. Thank you!

Red lips and Bob cut is just your thing you look so gorgeous with it. Y'all I'm gonna cut my 42 inches hair to shoulder length wish me luck!
Edit: I got my hair cut omg I look so pretty 😭

[kimchi_kid]

holy crap! i think as an asian, i just went my whole adult life thinking i was warm because most foundations made my face look too pink. but i kept wondering my warm toned foundation/bb cream made me look orange...this is such an eye opener! now i need olive toned foundation and bb cream recommendations!

[felis]

I"m a Southeast Asian and I really struggle to find the right tone of base make up since most of it would make my skin look either dull or too bright, so I mostly just go with tinted moisturizer. I have been wondering whether instead of my usual beige foundation, I'm more of an olive undertone, but then I found this video and it convinced me; yup, I have olive skin! Your explanation on how coral compliments olive skin tone convinced me more because coral and muted pink are my go-to colors! Thank you, Haley!

[BrittanyVenti]

I think this might be me...I always struggled to figure out the whole cool or warm thing and then I landed on neutral but now I come to find you can be an olive neutral. I think a lot of mixed women such as myself have this obstacle of figuring out their skin undertone.

[xhorizon]

It always hard to tell your skin tone when you’re in the mid range cause lighting can really change how it looks :(

[christiemacavei]

I recently found that I might be a olive tone. I always felt that everything was a little too pink or too orange on my skin and it wasnt until I decided to add a green corrector to my concealer (to try and cover some acne) that I realize I had accidentally made my perfect match! Hailey, your previous video (on finding your foundation shade) was a eureka moment for me! Thanks! ❤

[elwynbrooks]

oh my god PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THE FOUNDATION AND CONCEALER REC LIST FOR OLIVE UNDERTONES. HELP A GIRL OUT I COME OUT OF SEPHORA WITH SO MUCH SADNESS AND FRUSTRATION EVERY TIME

[HolyHealingSmokes]

I'm a neutral warm olive as well, but slightly lighter than you. I didn't figure it out earlier so I didn't wear makeup for most of my life. Now in my late 30s and with help from creators like you, I've figured out why I've always had a difficult time with makeup. I always looked too peachy or grayish. So I just want to say thanks for content like this that truly delve into rarer skin undertones. Most just stops at saying "there are 4 undertones" and expects us to magically have the training to figure out where we match. So thanks!!
