    Yes, absolutely, as most people aren't divided into warm and cool tones. Knowing what skin tone you are and then being able to choose from either side of the palate will play a huge difference in the way color looks on you.
  • Question
    Sometimes I feel pretty, but other times I feel ugly. I always find myself comparing myself to others. I'm 17, would being a teen have something to do with this?
    Community Answer
    Yes, these are very normal feelings to have at your age. Teenagers are constantly comparing themselves to others. Just know that everyone else feels the same way you do, even the most confident person you know. Even adults have days they don't feel so attractive, though. Keep in mind that we are our own worst critics, and try not to focus too much on appearance. There's a million things about you that make you interesting and beautiful that have nothing to do with your looks.

    How do I deal with people teasing me for being ugly?

    Ignore them. Everybody looks a little awkward in grade school/middle school, and these people are probably just teasing you because they feel insecure about themselves. Don't let it get to you. If they don't stop teasing you even after you're ignoring them, ask a teacher or other adult at school to help you.

    Try to learn French braids for hairstyles there are some good videos on YouTube. Half up half down also works and if you're allowed to flatten or curl your hair depending on your hair type and use some heat protection. Blow drying your hair also works for a good look and if your hair is dry use a hair mask either store-bought or homemade. Thinking of yourself pretty is also a good mindset and you will start feeling more confident. And have nice clothes; they don't need to be expensive, just neat and pretty, as they will make you feel good.
