Also, if you have purchased MAC foundation and have always wondered what NC or NW or C or W meant, there's your answers below. Also, by looking at your forearm's veins can be friendly. If you look, and notice your veins appear more gloomy, then more than likely you have pink undertones...and if your veins are more so greenish, then you no doubt have golden undertones.
