what color mascara/eyeliner/eyeshadow/blush/lipstick/lipgloss do i need for my face? here's what i look like:
oval/heart-shaped face, medium-darkish brown hair, medium-darkish brown eyes, kind of thick eye brows, oliveish tannish skin tone.
Eyeshadow- for brown eyes, I'd suggest using browns/golds, also purple shades look great. You can try browns, purples, blues.. but I'd stick to something simple that looks good at all times.
Blush- Since you already have tannish skin, you don't really need to use blush, but if you want to (esp. on special occasions), stick to something very light (pinkish) or peachy.
Lipstick- You can use different shades- I'd opt for something caramel or toffee-like (gold undertones for your tan/olive skin). Or try something light, pinkish (not bright, more like salmon color).
Lipgloss-- same as above. I'd suggest using a neutral color for your lips, particularly if you are doing up your eyes. I love Maybelline "Lip Polish" lip gloss in Baby Mauve. It's a light, sort of creamy/nude shade, which looks great w/my skin tone (also olive).
Keep in mind that if you're going to "do up" your eyes, you should keep your lip color simple...nude, cream, pinkish, etc.. [ ciao77's advice column | Ask ciao77 A Question ]
