  Hey everyone! I’ve been playing around with those phone camera undertone tests at home to discover my skin’s undertone, but I’m running into something odd. I did a test in the early morning hours around 7:30 a.m. near my bedroom window and got a cool undertone result. Then, just after lunch at about 1 p.m., I tried it once more by the living room window and this time it suggested a warmer undertone. I know my skin doesn’t actually alter its tone that much during the day, so I’m pretty sure it has to do with the daylight changing and how it hits my face on camera. For example, the morning light from the east-facing window is mild and somewhat blue, but the afternoon light is brighter and warmer because of the west-facing window. I even tried shifting from natural window light to a white LED lamp but still got inconsistent results. I found a really handy blog post that explains how daylight temperature and where you sit can really influence how your skin looks in photos, which clarified a lot for me color analysis quiz . I’m curious if anyone else has seen their undertone results change depending on the time of day or lighting conditions? Is there a best time — like maybe mid-morning or late afternoon — to do these tests to get more stable results? Also, are there any solid indoor lighting configurations that mimic natural daylight well enough to make these skin tone tests deliver accurate outcomes? I’d love some tips or even just personal experiences from the community, because I want to make sure I’m not getting inaccurate information from a tool that’s supposed to help me figure out my natural colors. Thanks in advance!
