If you want your makeup to look the most flattering, you should choose
colors based on your skin tone. From lipstick to eye shadow, here are
the best makeup shades for Black African ladies.
First you’ll need a foundation to match your skin. This will be
different for every woman and you may need to experiment. In general,
women with dark skin should look for a foundation with a blue undertone,
those with medium-toned skin should go for a red-yellow hue and those
with light-toned skin should pick a golden shade. If you feel you have
uneven skin tone, you may want to have a few different shades on hand to
create the most flawless finish.
For blush, avoid colors that look ashy or pale on your complexion. If
your skin tone is medium to dark, look for a deep hue, like currant or
plum, but, if your skin has lighter tones, try a pale color like apricot
or rose.
Eye shadows are an easy place to experiment with color. Many hues will
look pretty on African
American skin of all tones, so you can select
shadows and liners based on preference or trends if you like. Natural
earth tones like browns, cinnamon’s and shimmering gold can be subtly
pleasing. If you want to make brown eyes pop, go for blue eyeliner.
The lipstick makeup advice is that those with darker skin tones can pull
off darker lip colors. Rich blackberry works for the darkest skin,
currant or red matches medium tones and neutrals and glosses will look
pretty on lighter skin. If you don’t want to draw attention to or have
your lips be the focal point of your face, you can stick to subtle and
universally flattering shades like caramel and soft brown.
