It is possible to use different color variations if you have dark eyes, hair and skin. The most important advice is to choose bold, deep colours because they create a wonderful glow. Below you will read a few recommendations on how to apply make-up for black skin.

Make-up tips for black skin
1. It is important that the foundation could match perfectly with the tone of your skin. It can be applied with damp sponge. You need to blend it along your jaw and hairline to avoid tidemarks. Finally you should use a light dusting of translucent loose powder.

2. Apply a dark blackcurrant eyeshadow over your eyelids. At first you need to dust a little powder under your eyes in order to catch any falling specks of this dark shade and don’t let it ruin your completed foundation.

3. A dark charcoal eyeshadow should be applied into the crease of your eyelid, with the help of an eyeshadow brush. You need to take a little colour at a time to the brush to avoid spilling on to your eyelid. The brush should be tapped on the back of your hand before use so that you could shake away any excess.

4. The eyeliner should be applied under your lower lashes. To make an accurate line you can hold the mirror above your eyeliner. Then, cover your lashes with two coats of mascara.

5. To complement your skin you can use a tawny brown shade of blusher. Using a large brush you need to dust over your cheeck, working towards the hairline.

6. Then you can outline your lips with a tonning lip pencil. Choose a dark plum shade of lipstick and apply it with a lipbrush.

7. Dramatic colors fit the best for this skin ton. That’s why they should be also applied in order to create a fresh and up-to-date look.
