Blue, green, and purple makeup and clothing will blend in best with those with olive skin tones and green veins.
Neutral Undertone Veins
Olive skin tones with more yellow or beige undertones are more likely to show veins that are pink or light brown. Wearing yellow or pink makeup will help to bring out the natural coloring of those with neutral veins.
Wearing coral, peach, and beige clothing is an ideal choice for those with olive skin tones and a neutral undertone.
Those with neutral undertones will also be able to wear black lipstick and blush, as well as blue makeup. Because they have a neutral skin tone, all colors can blend together easily.
Red Undertone Veins
Those with olive skin tones and red undertones may have blue or purple veins. Since red undertones tend to be on the darker side, those with olive skin tones and red veins often have brownish-green or black eyes.
People with olive skin tones and red undertones need to avoid wearing blue makeup such as blue eyeliner and mascara, as well as dark clothing like navy and black. Instead, they should stick to warmer colors like pinks, plums, and reds.
Those with olive skin tones and red veins should opt for lighter makeup colors such as pale pink lipstick and blush. Since their natural complexion is dark, they need to wear light makeup in order for it to show up on their face.
Blue-Green Undertone Veins
Blue-green wrist veins typically indicate that you have cool undertones, no matter your skin color. So if you have blue-green veins, you’re likely to have cool olive skin tones. Because olive skin with cool undertones has a greenish cast to it, wearing green and purple makeup is ideal.
You’ll also want to choose clothing in shades of green, blue, and purple.
Purple Undertone Veins
If your veins appear to look purple, then you have a warmer olive skin tone. Those with a purple undertone in their veins should choose makeup in shades of pink and orange, as well as dark clothing in colors such as blue, red, and plum.
Wearing warm brown eye shadow along with gold or bronze blush can help to bring out the warmth in your complexion if you have a purple undertone.
