I am trying to work out my undertone at home but my results change more than I expected. Near a north-facing window my skin looks fairly neutral while warm indoor bulbs make it look noticeably golden. Automatic processing seems to shift the image even when I keep the same position and background. I kept my face bare and wore a medium-gray shirt so clothing should not be adding much reflected color. I am comparing the photos with a simple skin undertone test camera rather than trusting one image. Would it be better to lock exposure and white balance before taking a short series of photos? I could place a white sheet and a gray reference beside my face if that makes the comparison more useful. If you have repeated this kind of test, which lighting conditions were consistent, and which clues did you ignore? A repeatable checklist would help more than a single verdict before I start choosing hair or clothing colors from the result.
