It all depends on whether you have olive or pink undertones in your skin (or if you're a "winter" or a "summer"). If you're not sure, ask another woman or a make-up consultant at a department store. If you have pink undertones or you're a "winter", go with cool colors, like blues, and pinks. If your skin has olive undertones, go with metallics and browns. But either way, smokey is always a good way to go!

If your undertones are yellow - Dark greens, browns, bronzes, and dark golds....
If your undertones are more pink - Burgundy, maroon, dark purple, etc.
Black and grey eyeshadow - carefully applied, also looks great.

i have seen many dark women using gold shine eyeshadow that looks just beautiful. Try using the creamy kind it looks more natural & lasts all day.

Stick with colors that compliment your skin tone.

I love going for the bronze look with a gold shadow increasing to a shimmer at the top. AMAZING =]

You can really wear almost any colors you like, just depends on what look you are wanting. You can try out the Virtual Makeover on my website. I can also mail you free samples of any colors you'd like to try.

natural colours actually look quiet nice on tanned skin, plus also gold and purple as answered earlier would look wonderful
