2. Customizing Undertones, Shades & Proportions
Welcome to Part 2 of my breakdown on Women’s Formal Dresses in Sizes XXS–6X | JessaKae.
Before you lock in your final formula or outfit pairing, here is how I adapt the tones and textures for each client.

Pin Look
Finding Your Most Flattering Version
If your skin runs cool, swap the peach tones for a dusty rose or mauve blush and a foundation with a pink undertone.
For warm undertones, go with golden-peach and a touch of bronzer to warm up the edges of your face.
On the texture side, if you’re in a humid venue or a long ceremony, opt for a matte-satin hybrid.
It gives you that polished finish without slipping.
For a more romantic vibe, add a liquid highlighter just on the high points of your cheekbones.
✦ 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.
Always check how the finish and proportions look in both natural window light and warm indoor lighting so the result feels effortless from every angle.
Keeping a saved reference photo on your phone makes it easy to compare subtle details, textures, and color harmony before you start.
