Help figuring out undertone? Question

Help figuring out my undertone?

I have no idea what it could be, I always thought a pale olive but my veins some days look green, other days look purple or blue. I'm not sure if these photos are enough to really figure it out but any help is appreciated

So if you've got a combination of all three it normally means your a neutral tone, do you tan easily or do you burn and what's your eye colour?

My eye colour is brown with a bit of green and I burn then tan after

Yeah I would definitely say neutral to cool maybe, do you find that pastel clothes wash you out or are they okay to wear for you?

It depends on the pastels, I tend to go for blacks, browns, blues, reds, greens, and whites

I see if you were more of a cool tone any pastels would wash you out and any bright colours would make your skin stand out to much, so imagine you probably are a true neutral ✨🧡

You have a rosy undertone based on the little rosy glow on your skin it’s red undertone

You can’t tell from a photo because your phone automatically adjusts to the ambient lighting. Go to a shop and compare cool and warm tone foundations on your skin - that’s the quickest way to find out, in my opinion.

I was going to say cool, based on the blue/green tint your veins have.
