What is the number one makeup for dark african american skin?

Hey ya'll! I have rich dark chocolate skin. I have an arsenal of products but my skin has changed after the birth of my daughter. Please help!What is the number one makeup for dark african american skin?
I would say fashion fair. you should look it up on the internet. also maybe try Iman - it's pricey though. Carole's daughter might have some makeup too. look it up on the net.What is the number one makeup for dark african american skin?
Ooh. I don't like Fashion Fair...for one their colors are too dark and ';clownish'; looking.


I would try some of the newer brands like Clinique.


But don't forget before makeup comes good skin care! You have to wash your face daily and moisturize. That's number 1!

How do you choose color makeup that suits with the skin tone of a person?

Heard there's colors that match to a skin tone that is for either a winter,autumn,summer,spring woman?How do you choose color makeup that suits with the skin tone of a person?
Most of the time it is the eye color that guides you the most.





The seasons come more with fabrics against the skin tone.How do you choose color makeup that suits with the skin tone of a person?
you can't choose by the seasons but to choose the right color for your skin tone test it on the tips of your fingers and if it blends right in its perfect
well there is no season woman, just what siuts her skin tone, and face. test foundation on teh clean base of ur jaw, ur jawline, and step out into daylight and see if it matches. If ur unsure, visit a make up/beauty consultant!!

What color makeup works best with olive skin?

I would like to know what shade would be best on me. I have brown hair and light brown eyes. Also is there any powders that are especially good at reducing/covering up oily skin? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.What color makeup works best with olive skin?
Use highlighting powder instead of bronzer which is better applied on pale skin... Keep your eyeliner and mascara dark as well. Unless you are going for a while colored look, mascara should always be black... With just a little bit applied right to the apples of your cheeks, you can create a very warm effect.What color makeup works best with olive skin?
what's the skin color ,if you color is yellow ,y need purple,
I think either a light pink or a light green would look good with olive skin. I don't really know of any powders that could cover up oily skin though.

Have you ever sworn off makeup due to skin problems?

Have you ever tried going for a period of time without using any makeup after reaching the end of your rope due to skin problems such as pimples, irritation, zits etc..?


Had soaps, cleansers and such not helped?Have you ever sworn off makeup due to skin problems?
I've never sworn off make-up altogether. I am too insecure for that! Try using a gentle cleanser for combination skin, followed by a toner/astringent, and make sure you use a good moisturizer! This usually clears up my skin problems. It's a pain to keep up with, and can take up more time than you may have in the mornings, but it's worth it. Also, you may want to try a different brand of make-up. Sometimes a certain kind does not react well with your skin.Have you ever sworn off makeup due to skin problems?
Yeap, Wet and Wild made my skin and lips very irritated. I had to stop using it and every thing else in order for my skin to heal-
yes it helps:) i just did it when i wasnt going anywhere special

  • When i apply my makeup my skin gets all dry and then i have to put lotion on-it.What should i use to stop it?

    I use moisturizer under my foundation. That way it's hydrated throughout the whole dayWhen i apply my makeup my skin gets all dry and then i have to put lotion on-it.What should i use to stop it?
    Moisturise in the morning and evening. Make sure you exfoliate once-twice a week to get rid of flaky skin.


    Under foundation, you could try using a base or skin primer to make your skin smooth, make pores look smaller and it's easier to put make-up on over that.


    Good luck, i know how annoying dry skin can be.When i apply my makeup my skin gets all dry and then i have to put lotion on-it.What should i use to stop it?
    Put a fair amount of lotion on your face first. I recommend the Avon 'Rich Moisture' Cream... it's pretty cheap and works wonders. Or, if you can't reach Avon, get any Johnson and Johnson cream, and put it on your face and then apply the makeup. I have the same problem too, but it goes away if you put a lot of cream on first.
    you should apply lotion every morning and night to keep your face from getting dry...maybe try using a new foundation if you think its ruining your skin

    What makeup colors go with deep skin, copper brown hair, brown eyes and a coral dress for prom?

    For Junior prom i'm wearing a coral dress wity studded straps. I don't usually wear makeup but I want to try it for prom. I use eyeshadow sometimes but want to also try lip color. I have now clue what colors would look good with my coral dress, skin tone, and hair. Please help me out!What makeup colors go with deep skin, copper brown hair, brown eyes and a coral dress for prom?
    i'm happy to help! so okay, im going to do this step by step, with help from the mac website, www.maccosmetics.com, because they have pictures and descriptions of all of their products, so its easier for you to get an idea of the colors.


    of course, you can always just use the actual cosmetics from mac.





    so...





    first of all, wash your face! itll clean out your pores, remove any extra oil, and leave you shining!


    second, apply a foundation. i cant really name a color because idon't know the exact hue of your skin. so im leaving foundation up to you =)


    second, eyes.


    since its prom, you'll want to look gorgeous. try a simple smokey eye, but with a pop of gold.


    first, line your eyes with a black kohl eyeliner, and smudge it with a q-tip. im a firm believer in kohl eyeliner because it looks gorgeous and smokey. i recommend annabelle's black kohl eyeliner.


    next, take a gorgeous goldish eyeshadow and lightly dust you whole lid. i recommend something like mac's ';goldmine';

    then, take a darker, more brown-gold color and put in on the outer corner of your eyelid in a sideways v-shape, the point being on the outer extremity of your eyelid.


    i recommend something along the lines of mac's ';romp';


    http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/pr鈥?/a>


    then, take a really dark brown color and dust it into the crease of your eyelid, something like mac's ';espresso';


    then, take a smudge brush and gently blur the lines and, well, smudge it.


    then, mascara, mascara, mascara. put 3 coats on top and two on the bottom for extra drama. i recommend covergirl's lashblast (in the orange tube) its enormous brush is sure to pump up the volume on your lashes.





    next, your cheeks.


    smile widely and apply a tiny bit of pink blush to the prominent apples of your cheeks, such as mac's ';dame';


    then, if you want, take some bronzer and put in kust on top of your cheekbones, to accent them, and also just under your eyebrows, to make your eyes look larger.





    then, lips. you dont want to go too dramataic, as that would contrast your dress and over dramatize your makeup since you already have a dramatic eye.


    a simple, shiny gloss in a thin layer would do, such as mac's lipglass in ';lychee luxe';. your dress will pick out the coral in it and it will complete your look.





    good luck being drop dead gorgeous on prom night!What makeup colors go with deep skin, copper brown hair, brown eyes and a coral dress for prom?
    Dark skin looks best in bright, vivid colors. Dark skinned ladies can look amazing in deep purples, many of the jewel tones listed for medium skinned girls, and ultra-bright colors that other women can't pull off. If you want to go neutral, choose a deep neutral like chocolate brown, steel gray, or jet black.


    Eyeshadow: Brown hair is flattered by gold, bronze, and earth tones,


    You should also consider what goes with your personality and personal style. If you are a natural boho chick try earthy tones. Edgy, rocker girls look great in bold colors like black, gray, purple, green, or even pink. Glamorous girls should try gold, bronze, silver, chocolate brown, and other eye catching colors. Those of you who are very girly would look best with pastels or metallics. If you're a sporty girl try something that enhances your look in a natural way like beige, pale rose, or light brown. Also, consider where you are wearing your make-up. Aim to look professional at work or job interviews, girly on dates, sexy at parties, edgy at a rock concert, glamorous at a dance or formal event, and natural for the gym or school.





    Eyeliner: brown eyes in black or green.
    What color is coral?Id go with a deep red.I guess.
