I don't wear much, so I'd like to get some advice for when I do. I'm half mexican and I'm outside in the sun way too much, so my skin is extremely dark :( But I was wondering what shades/colors looked the best?

Bronze Eye Shadow and Lip Gloss. That would look great w/ your skin...try it out!

The style right now is dark, dark, dark lips and subtle eyes.
I bet you would look fabulous in a deep, almost brownish purple lipstick. Then sweep your eyes with a very soft light brown. Highlight your brow line and the inside corners of your eyes with a very light almost shiny highlighting shadow.
Be careful not to overdue. Go outside with a mirror.
The most important thing you can do is experiment and then experiment more to find your personal style.
Another thing you could do is get together with a close friend and spend and evening having fun with all different shades.
Sometimes it's really best to get another opinion.
Good Luck. I'm sure you are beautiful without a lick of make up anyway! Have you considered that?
Best wishes,
Sarah

Well Brazzzzilllll....im Pakistani/Indian American...so I have dark skin as well...i think MAC studio fix shade NW45 should be perfect....but i havent seen your picture so im not sure...you can always go to a MAC counter at any MAC store near you they be more than happy to help you free of charge...with that you should also try some sort of bronze blush....rmr a lil bit goes a long way...eye shadows...olives, golds, bronze colors again...burnt orange too...!!! Get out there n experiment!!

I have dark skin also.. so what I us is like a gold bronze type of eye shadow and a natural color lip gloss.. but some colors for eye shadow depends on the type of colors your eyes are.. like if you have Brown eyes purples brings everything out.. pink shades work for blue eyes.. and green eyes warm colors like gold, bronze and olive greens and also some blues.. hazel eyes.. you would have to test and see because there are always different types of those.. I hope this helps = )

Okay, I know that with clothing someone once told me that light colors are good with dark skin and dark colors are good with light skin but I'm not completely sure with makeup.

Well I have tan skin and lets just say NO color of make up looks good on me. But if you look as good as you do in your avatar than all colors will look great on you.

I'm a makeup artist in st. louis and i see alot of people with this question. Bronze and gold shadow. get some highlighter lotion that will make your skin glow and please use some sunscreen 30 min before going outdside. light greens and light gray and creme colours but u have to put them on light until u get use to wearing them. browns and beige look good to. hope this was helpful.
