Make up for black skin  

If you have darker black you can generally pull off much stronger make-up looks than those with white . You can get away with wearing deeper shades on your lips and cheeks, as well as the bright or dark eye make-up that tends to make pale look even paler. Bronze, olive green, emerald green, sapphire blue, grey, plum and pastel shades can be good looks for eye make-up. Make the most of the fact that you’re not so restricted in your choice of colours by experimenting with bold eye make-up or lip colour, but keep in mind the golden rule of wearing eye-catching make-up - it’s either the eyes or the lips.


Choosing for Black

Step1

Choose a foundation, concealer and powder that work for you. If you’re black, you may need a slightly darker shade for the summertime than for the winter. Avoid getting a color that is too light.

Step2

Look for bold pink and red blushes that match nicely with the naturally flushed color of your dark .

Step3

Play up your heritage with your eyes. Use brown or black eyeliners for definition and mascaras and eye shadows that will complement your brown eyes. Plums, browns and burgundies work best for you. Avoid light shadow colors.

Step4

Choose plums, mauves and browns for lip colors. Avoid pinks, light colors and oranges, as they will not complement your tone in most cases.

Step5

Stay away from lip pencils in most cases, as you’ll tend to have fuller lips already.

Step6

Define and darken your eyebrows with a brown pencil matching your natural hair color.
