Don’t stop reading if you want to grab a few tips and stand out from the crowd!
- Foundation: You should always use a foundation that is as close to your skin tone as possible. If you are after a more bronzed look then we suggest using it over a terracotta colour to achieve a more natural look.
- Cheeks: Why not try a dash of honey tone colours to add a special touch to your cheeks. Caramel and peach tones work wonders on dark skin.
- For the eyes: When applying makeup on brown eyes, remember everyone loves them, they’re a powerful tool of seduction and to highlight them even more, the best thing is to use cold tone shades, ranging from blues to greys and right up to mauve and earthy tones. At night, go for a smoky look for your eyes with shades of dark grey and black combined with beige. During the day, use brown eyeliner to add more light to your look.
- Eyelashes: The first thing for flawless eyelashes is a dark black or brown pencil for during the day and then to highlight your eyes use an intense black mascara to sharpen your look. If you’re heading out for the night we recommend using mascara with bluish black shades. It’s sure to leave a lasting impression!
- Eyebrows: Eyebrows are one of the key features to the beauty of any women’s face. It’s very important that they are always well defined. So remember to use an eyebrow pencil and brush to keep them looking great throughout the day.
- Lips: The range of colours that can be used with olive coloured skin when highlighting your lips runs from browns, oranges and bronze right up to pinks.
- Correctors and highlighters: If you have dark skin, be careful when using correctors and highlighters as if you use it above your eyes you’ll end up looking too white and it looks artificial. To achieve a more natural look you should only use in the right place and after soften it well so it doesn’t clash with your tanned complexion.
