Most women will not leave their house without some
sort of make-up on. On the other hand, some women do not know the first
thing when it comes to make-up and are intimidated by the many colors,
styles, brands, and types of make-up that are out there today. This
should help.
There are two basic types of skin tones: cool and
warm. The easiest way to tell which one is best for you is to compare
the skin to a white and then a beige color t-shirt. If the white looks
better, than the skin is cool. Cool skin works best with blue or pink
undertones in the foundation, pale blues, purples, dark greens, gray
eye shadows, and pink blushes.
Warm (the skin that looks better
in beige) works with yellow base foundation, bronze, cream, light
brown, pink, soft green and coral eye shadow, and copper and warm brown
blushes. For both types of skin, however, the darkness and lightness
will also determine the shades worn. Fair skin works best with pink
tawny and beige blushes, and darker skin with plumbs, auburn, or rich
bronzes. Tanned & dark skin looks best in warm neutral colors.
Eye
shadow color is the most difficult to pinpoint because not only does
skin tone play a part, but also, eye color, hair color, clothing
colors. Blue eyes mostly look good in pinks, blues, browns, and violet
shades. Brown eyes look good in beige, toffees, chocolates, whites and
dark browns. Green eyes look good in peach, pink shades and purples.
Hazel eyes are lucky and can go with almost any color type depending on
their tendencies toward green, blue, or brown.
