I'm Goth/Emo But Im African American
Okay Well I'm African American And I'm Really Into The "goth, emo, scene, visual kei" type thing. I Love The Stuff And Thats My Style. However, Everytime I Look Up How To's ANd STuff Its Focused On People Of Lighter Color. I'm A Milk CHocolatey Tone And The Type Of Makeup They FOcus On Just Doesnt Go With It. It Always Says "Make Your SKin Pale ANd Use Bloody Mary Powder" and things Like That, But I Cant Do That. Can Anybody Tell me Makeup I Can Do To Go With My Goth Style, And Not Require Making Myself Pale And Wierd Looking Because Of My COlor? Thanx :]

since your a darker tone then the typical "goth" person, yu should really try using makeup that works for your skin tone. purples look good on ppl of color like me, and i think that since the typical goth person is pale...maybe yu should try creating a whole new perspective of the goth scene. yu kno, make it yur own. :) be how yu feel yu should be

You don't have to be traditional goth. Like the person below me said, you can use colored mascara (they are really cool and can make your eyelashes any color like bright purple) or eyeshadows to make your eyes pop. Plus, I personally think you can still make the goth look work, even with color. I've seen like bright green and black stripes work. Orange and purple too. Neon colors are good. You don't need the pale aspect. It's way cooler that you are creating your own style.
Check this:
Colorgoth--wear color, such as burgundy, purple, red and/or blue, more often than the typical all black attire

hey, well there are some ways to go about it, i think since the color you described, well i see people all decked out in black, red, or rainbow colored clothes. but a lot of black is what i see, maybe instead of making your skin darker, you could like make it stand out more, you know? go for the dark and gothic clothes, but color code your makeup to go with it? like change it up, start a new trend with it? make your make up deadly and darker than your skin? or bright colors you don't usually see, like yellow, red,even green,blue stuff like that? make the dark and black on your clothes are you stand/pop out. hope i helped or at least gave you an idea =]
