2. Customizing Undertones, Shades & Proportions
Welcome to Part 2 of my breakdown on Brooklyn Blonde in Sarah Flint.
Before you lock in your final formula or outfit pairing, here is how I adapt the tones and textures for each client.

Finding Your Most Flattering Version
If your undertone runs cool, swap the peach primer for a lavender one and choose a foundation with a rosy base.
It’ll neutralize any redness and make the red shoes feel more intentional.
For deeper skin tones, I’d go with a golden-bronze blush and a terracotta lip to echo the warmth of the shoe without clashing.
Texture-wise, if you’re oily, skip the satin finish and use a matte foundation with a light dusting of setting powder only on your T-zone.
For dry skin, a hydrating tinted moisturizer works better.
Just press a bit of cream highlighter on your cheekbones to keep the look dewy.
Proportions matter too: if the shoes are bold, keep the rest of your accessories minimal—no statement necklace, just delicate earrings.
✦ Which Finish Fits Your Vibe?
- Velvet Rose-Gold Glow: Effortless, soft-focus dimension that flatters every skin tone in daytime or candlelight.
- High-Impact Statement Finish: Crisp lines, rich pigment payoff, and bold contrast for evening events or street-style photos.
- Balanced Proportions: Keep one feature bold while letting the surrounding textures stay airy and breathable.
