I tried comparing a few fabric colors against my face, but the photos from my phone are not consistent. Under the kitchen light my skin looks much warmer than it does in daylight. I am struggling to judge whether a cream or a clear white fabric is actually more flattering. I found a guide to skin tone analysis and would like to use a fair setup before drawing conclusions. I could turn off the room lights and take both photos in the same spot, at the same time, with the same camera settings. Is it enough to lock exposure on the phone, or would that make the comparison more complicated than it needs to be? I am curious if a plain background matters as much as the light falling on the face. I would rather observe a visible change than trust a label. If you have tested undertones at home, what would you control first, and what signs would make you retake the pictures? |
