Well, I have heard that the majority of women do have yellow undertones so it would probably look good on them... However, I have super-pale skin with pink undertones (I basically have skin like a redhead, even though I'm a blonde), and even the very lightest, sheerest yellow powders and foundations just mix with my pink undertones and look orange on me! I have recently switched to translucent powder and cool-toned foundation and concealor, and it looks soooo much better than the yellow stuff I used to wear!
