While choosing a lipstick, an eye shadow or a blush, many young girls do not know which colour they should select. Since there are many skin tones, a certain coloured lipstick may suit one, but may not suit another. However, there are a few colours in make-up products that look suitable and eye-catching, irrespective of the skin tone.
Here are a few some tips:
Red lipstick
There is something magical about the red lipstick. A flattering red lipstick can pull your look together, even if you are not wearing heavy make-up. Available in matte, gloss and shimmer, the red lipstick can complete your make up look even if you opt for a minimalistic look. There is a shade of red lipstick for every skin tone. Fair toned women can pick cool-toned red lipsticks with hints of blue and purple. For medium skin tones, orange-red shades work well. A poppy red also helps cancel out any superficiality in medium skin tones. On dark complexions, deep, bright, matte reds work well.
Neutral colours
Whether you have fair, medium or dark skin tones, you can create hot looking eyes with neutral eye shadows. Neutral tones are the best to create a natural look which works well as day wear, for lunch and other day occasions.
Bronze toned blush
The blush, even when applied in a small amount, brings out the inner glow, highlights cheekbones and defines the face. A cinnamon or deep bronze toned blush works well for all skin tones be it fair/ medium/dark and works like magic to transform a muted regular wear look into a glamorous glow. Dab your way to fresh, natural finish, eye-popping shades. Whether you have fair, wheatish, or olive skin tone, almond and peach shade will give your cheeks a natural, pretty glow.
Colour correcting cream
Also called CC, a colour correcting cream, which generally called foundation, is the best option as a make-up base. A CC cream with SPF 50/ PA is the best option as a make-up base. CC cream has the real results of fading dark spots and dullness, feels lightweight on the skin and gives 24-hour moisturisation. Women with fair to light skin tone can opt for wheat shade and others can go for lighter shades.
Matte lipsticks
Women nowadays are selecting the lip shades that are perfectly matte but are always confused about which shade will look good with their skin tone. Different shades of orange complement all skin-tones – like true orange or tangerine tango shade suits well on fair skin whereas bright nectar or coral burst works best on tanned skin tone. IANS
