Emerald for Neutral Skin Tone.
Emerald is a direct match for neutral skin: it leans cool and neutral, so it harmonizes instead of fighting your complexion. At level 4, Emerald sits in the versatile middle, so undertone does most of the talking.
Practical check: if you can wear both gold and silver — this shade should settle in immediately. Confirm on your own photo before booking.
