Blush is a tricky one...but the best way to find out...pinch the apples of ur cheeks for 5 seconds or so, the hue of ur cheeks after pinching them is what u would naturally blush to if u blushed so a color of blush close to that would be ur best bet. because the key to makeup is to enhance ur natural beauty and actually 'look' natural. as for eye shadow it depends on ur eye color, ur hair color and also ur skin tone. but some basic colors to have : a shade of pink, some tans and browns/bronze, blues(unless u have green eyes) if ur eyes are green u can always wear dusty blues or grayish blues, have eye makeup for smoky eyes. depending on ur eye color u should at least have one color that makes ur eyes pop or is dramatic--to spice things up. I would suggest going to a cosmetics counter in a department store so u can try on a bunch of colors and experiment and go home with what u like. good luck and don't be afraid of color, creativity and experimentation.

Cool skin tones with pink undertones look best in pinks, berries, purples and blues.
Warm skin tones with yellow or olive undertones look best in corals, browns and peaches.
More people are actually a neutral tone.

You have to try different shades and see what suits you best. You don't want anything that's too harsh, just subtle enhancement. You can always go to a professional for some tips.
