CHAPTER 8 - Sunglasses for different skin tones
Which shade is best for cool skin
People with cool skin tones can choose from green, purple, blue, silver, or pink colors for frame colors, and lens colors can be chosen from blue, silver, or pink. Tortoiseshell frames in sunglasses are also a good choice and do not make you look pale or washed out.

What color sunglasses suit the wheatish skin tone
People with a wheatish skin tone can choose from any color of sunglasses. These can range from dark-colored shades to bright tints and almost all types of frames and lens. However, darker shades like brown, deep blue, purple, dark red, black, and brown are the best choice.
What color sunglasses suit dark skin?
People with dark skin should not go for deeper shades of brighter hues as it might draw too much attention to your face. On the other hand, light-colored frames and lenses help highlight the best features of your face and accentuate your appearance even more.
Getting to know your skin tone is the most important factor to consider when choosing a new pair of sunglasses. Sunglasses that have a complementary color to your skin tone and color are a better choice. For example, warm skin tones usually have green or yellow undertones that go well with shades of beige, gold, brown, red, orange, off-white pink, etc., whereas cool skin tones have a blue or pink undertone which goes well with gray, pink, purple, blue, black and many others. Additionally, tortoiseshell can go for both skin tones very well.
What color sunglasses look best on warm skin tones?
Sunglasses for warm skin tones look good with red, orange, brown, yellow, or golden frames. Also, choosing fiery colors or some shade of brown for the sunglass lenses is a perfect fit for people with warm-toned skin and eyes.
How would you decide if your skin color is warm or cold?
Without getting too technical, simply check what color of jewelry you like to see on yourselves more: Gold, rose gold, in shades of gold or platinum, silver, diamond in white gold. In case you prefer jewellry in shades of gold, rose gold or yellow metal then you should consider eyewear that compliments warm skin tones. If you prefer jewelry and accessories in shades of platinum, silver or white metal then you will find eyewear in shades that compliment cool skin tones more appealing.
However, trying crossover tones, like bright shades recommended for warm skin on cooler skin tones and vice versa can create striking statement appearances that get noticed and appreciated.
