How to Choose the Right Jewellery According to Your Skin Tone
Introduction
Jewellery has the power to enhance your natural beauty — but did you know that the right piece can make your skin glow even brighter? Just skin tone like choosing the right outfit or makeup shade, selecting jewellery that complements your skin tone can elevate your entire look.
At Heerahaat, we believe every woman deserves jewellery that highlights her natural charm. This guide will help you discover which metals, gemstones, and styles best suit your skin tone — so every time you wear your favourite piece, you shine effortlessly.
Understanding Your Skin Tone
Before choosing jewellery, it’s important to identify your skin’s undertone. Many people confuse skin tone (light, medium, dark) with undertone (the subtle hue underneath the skin). Undertones fall into three main categories:
Cool Undertone:
Skin has hints of pink, red, or bluish shades.Veins appear blue or purple.
Silver jewellery often looks more flattering.
Warm Undertone:
Skin carries golden, peachy, or yellow hues.Veins appear green or olive.
Gold jewellery enhances your glow beautifully.
Neutral Undertone:
A balance between warm and cool tones.Veins appear both blue and green.
You can wear both gold and silver effortlessly.
Once you know your undertone, picking the right jewellery becomes easy — it’s all about harmony and balance.
For Warm Skin Tones — Go for the Golden Glow
If your skin has a warm undertone, you’re blessed with a natural sun-kissed radiance. The best way to enhance that is by choosing jewellery with golden hues.
Metals That Suit You:
Yellow Gold: The ultimate match for warm tones. It enhances your skin’s natural glow and gives a royal, traditional appeal.
Rose Gold: Its subtle pink warmth complements warm undertones perfectly while adding a modern touch.
Copper and Bronze: Great for boho and ethnic styles.
Gemstones to Choose:
Amber, Topaz, Citrine, Coral, Ruby, and Garnet.
Earthy shades like red, orange, turquoise, and brown also look stunning.
Heerahaat Style Tip:
For festive occasions, pick a gold Kundan necklace or rose gold earrings from Heerahaat’s handcrafted collection. They will highlight your complexion and make your outfit pop.
For Cool Skin Tones — Shine with Silver and Platinum
Cool-toned skin pairs beautifully with sleek, silvery metals. These tones bring out the freshness in your complexion and add a touch of sophistication.
Metals That Suit You:
Silver: Enhances the natural coolness of your skin.
White Gold and Platinum: Ideal for modern, elegant looks.
Rhodium Finish: Adds extra shine while balancing blue undertones.
Gemstones to Choose:
Sapphire, Emerald, Amethyst, Aquamarine, and Tanzanite.
Icy colours like blue, green, and violet suit perfectly.
Heerahaat Style Tip:
Pair a silver choker with blue gemstones or platinum drop earrings for a graceful evening look. These tones bring out your elegance without overpowering your natural beauty.
For Neutral Skin Tones — The Best of Both Worlds
If you have a neutral undertone, congratulations — you can wear almost any metal or gemstone. The key is to mix and match to find what feels most “you.”
Metals That Suit You:
Gold & Silver Jewellery , Platinum, or Rose Gold — all complement your balanced undertone.
You can experiment with dual-tone jewellery (Gold & Silver Jewellery), which looks luxurious and modern.
Gemstones to Choose:
Pearls, Diamonds, Jade, Quartz, Gold & Silver Jewellery .
You can also try pastel tones or bold colours depending on your outfit.
Heerahaat Style Tip:
Try Heerahaat’s dual-metal rings or two-tone bangles — they are perfect for neutral skin tones and versatile for both casual and festive wear.
Matching Jewellery to Your Outfit and Skin Tone
Even the perfect jewellery tone can lose its magic if it doesn’t harmonize with your outfit. Here’s a quick guide:
Warm undertones + Warm outfits: Pair Gold & Silver Jewellery with red, orange, or yellow dresses.
Cool undertones + Cool outfits: Pair Gold & Silver Jewellery with blue, purple, or grey attire.
Neutral undertones: Experiment with both — you can balance gold necklaces with silver earrings for a chic contrast.
Heerahaat Tip: When in doubt, pick a gemstone that complements both your outfit and undertone. A subtle emerald or ruby works wonders across all skin tones.
Choosing Jewellery by Skin Shade
While undertone is the main factor, skin shade (light, medium, deep) also influences how jewellery looks on you.
Light Skin
Best Metals: Silver, Platinum, and White Gold.
Best Gemstones: Emerald, Amethyst, and Sapphire.
Avoid overly yellow golds — they may overpower your natural tone.
Medium Skin
Best Metals: Rose Gold, Yellow Gold, and Bronze.
Best Gemstones: Ruby, Garnet, and Topaz.
Medium skin tones glow with warm metals and rich gemstone colours.
Deep Skin
Best Metals: Gold and Copper.
Best Gemstones: Diamond, Jade, and Amethyst.
Deep tones carry bold pieces beautifully — try chunky gold earrings or layered necklaces.
When to Break the Rules
Fashion is about expressing yourself. While skin tone guides you, personal style should always lead the way. If you love silver but have a warm undertone — wear it with confidence!
Mixing metals is also a growing trend. Try gold earrings with a silver chain, or rose gold with platinum accents — Heerahaat’s mixed-metal collection is perfect for gold & silver jewellery experimenting without losing elegance.
Remember, the most important rule is to wear gold & silver jewellery what makes you feel beautiful.

How to Test Which Jewellery Suits You
If you’re unsure about your skin tone or which jewellery suits you best, try these quick tests:
1. White vs. Cream Fabric Test:
Hold a white cloth near your face — if your skin glows, you’re cool-toned.
If cream looks better, you’re warm-toned.
Sun Reaction Test:
If you tan easily, you likely have a warm undertone.
If you burn before tanning, your undertone is cool.
Jewellery Test:
Try one gold and one silver piece.
The one that enhances your natural radiance indicates your undertone.
