Advice on makeup colors or tones?

Question

I'm not really very good at picking out good shades of makeup for myself. I do fine helping other people, but I fall short when looking for my own products.

I have grey eyes, auburn hair, and olive toned skin. I generally don't use mascara, as my eyelashes are already quite long and dark.

Does anyone have suggestions?

Answer 1

The most important factor is your olive skin. I don't think it is your fault that you have trouble. Cosmetic companies tend to fall short with shades that compliment your skin tone.
I think pinkish reds, neutrals (neither warm or cool), and deep blues will look good on you.

Answer 2

With grey eyes you would suit a lovely purple or navy blue eye liner to start with. Black mascara, if you like.
The look seems to be more to a natural colour as far as lipsticks go. With your colouring I would try a natural peachy/brown shade, or a gloss with a hint of raspberry.

Answer 3

sounds stable, yet ditch the brown eyeshadow, its a lifeless decision. i think of only the black eyeliner, according to danger truly heavier than you place on it now, with in basic terms a sprint on the backside lid will seem much extra advantageous on your well-known makeup. placed on a mossy/goldy eco-friendly eye shadow once you dres up. attempt using blusher as a replace of bronzer now and returned for a extra girly and harmless seem. (truly some the time interior the iciness because of the fact it seems extra organic and setting up for the climate) discover he good shade by using pinching your pores and skin, sorting out next to the crimson bit, and finding the closest journey. additionally, attempt puttinf your hair in a million or 2 low buns while its a sprint damp, b4 u flow 2 mattress. interior the morning you will choose loose waves and slightly a curl on the backside, (you should use a tad of mousse to restoration it) which will seem slightly much less finished up and slightly extra girly than straightened. its additionally much extra handy!
