I cant figure out if i am warm or cool. i am very pale but i have a yellowish olive tone in my skin. My natural hair color is a medium 7 brown and i have hazel eyes ( go like this: dark blue outside layer, thengreen, then brown specs).
Can you suggest what colors would look best on me? I'm looking for some colors that will make my skin look radiant as well really make my eyes stand out amazingly against my skin and hair.

Take your forearm and examine it under natural sunlight, If your veins look more green than blue you are a "COOL" undertone, or vise versa, if they lean towards the blue side you are a "WARM" undertone. Another way that works is wash off any make up and let your skin sit for thirty minutes. Again try to find some natural light,for ex a bathroom with a big window and a good mirror and if your natural skin looks more yellow than pink your COOL or more pink than yellow, WARM. If you simply cant tell, as I couldn't I would go with Natural or Neutral. good luck!
Ive taken a pro makeup artist course in Hollywood,struggled with my undertone and I've found these the best!

That's what I am as well, and it's most definitely warm. Oddly enough, I have no problem wearing purple either. You have the chestnut hair as well, so did I before bleaching. I also find that green works very well for a warmer skin tone. For eye shadow (my eyes are gray and almond-shaped, I'm half Native American) I find that white in the inner corner brings them out more.

I have pale olive skin too. Pinks and light greens look nice as well as powder blues. When choosing clothes, put the fabric near your face and see the difference the different colors make in reflecting onto your face. I look good in fushia too, so bright colors are ok for some.
The makeup colors best for me are peachy blushes, berry lipsticks and neutral eye shadows.

Medium tone foundation with a dark peachy rouge, very lightly,
purple eyeshadow which will really bring the green out in your eyes and you are a warm tone.

I think cool.
I would recommend peachy colors or surprisingly pinks. I would go with pale green colors for eyes and then peachy blush to make you look fresh and healthy.
Do not go for bronzer or browns that may make you look dark or more yellowish.

if you have blonde hair it will naturally get bleached by the particular sun in the summer. There had been this guy in my class who also had golden blonde hair that has been a medium brown near the base. When he came back to school after summer vacation, it was almost platinum blonde!

Jet black hair. I have truly dark brown hair and I believe dark hair looks better. I don't really like blonde hair.
