Here I finally found some answers in another web. So im copy pasting it for anyone who might have same issues as me and want more insight. after reading this i realized iam olive with golden under tones ...................................... Olive skin tones can vary. Some olive skin tones can be "warm" (red), some can be "neutral" (equal amounts of pink and yellow), others still can be "golden" (yellow). However, the characteristic that all individuals with olive skin share, is that "green" or "grayish" hue that can be seen radiating out. Olive undertoned skin is made up of varying amounts of yellow, red, and green pigment. Those with an olive skin tone, have "beige" skin. Basic foundation color categories are usually distinguished by being either cool (rose, pink), warm (yellow, peach, or golden), or neutral (equal pink and yellow but minimal). However, olive colored foundation is, and should be, in a category all by itself because it must have that green pigment in it. No other color category has the green in it, only olive. Which is why so many women with olive skin have the darnedest time finding a foundation that works, and they have those same complaints that the color changes to pink, peach, or orange. Most makeup companies don't accommodate olive skin. The makeup industry is changing, however, and more companies are finally including olive foundations. I had the same problem as you, foundations would either turn peach, pink, or orange on me, and that was because I finally discovered that I had an olive undertone, lots of green. If you are using the trick to determine if you are warm or cool by looking at the veins on your wrist, the veins for olive skin will actually look green. Since olive colored foundations can vary by being either on the warm, golden, or neutral side, for it to be considered "olive", it must have the "greenish" pigment for it to work. If the foundation turned pink on you, the high amount of red pigment in the foundation neutralized the green in your skin; if the foundation turned orange, again, too much red pigment and it neutralized the green/blue undertone; foundation that turns peachy, here again, the foundation is neutralizing the olive tone in your skin. If the foundation turns gray, it is because the blue/violet pigment in the pink foundation, neutralized a good deal of the natural yellow in your skin, thereby giving you that "washed out" look.
