What semi-precious stones looks best on you?


I dove deep into the art of knowing which color tones look best on which skin/hair/eye tone one day (when I was trying to figure out which I am!) and found it really useful in helping people pick a semi-precious stone to wear. People with dark hair are generally winters, people with light hair (blond) are generally summers. These two, which have red undertones in their skin, look best in cooler tones and can interchange what tones they wear. Falls and springs have yellow undertones in their skin. Falls have brown or auburn hair with brown or hazel eyes. They can have blue or green but only if there's brown or yellow mixed in. Springs do not tan, have red hair, and often have freckles.


Here's some stones I find look best with certan skin tones:


Winters look best in cool dark tones such as Onyx, Sodalite, Lapiz, amazonite, coral, purple agate, green agate, malachite, blue howlite, and serpentine.


Summer's look radiant in clear and white crystals, amathyst, rose quartz, and green aventurine.


Autums and springs look great in teal agate, tiger eye, carnelian, turquoise, amber, neutral brown agate, and copper.
