What color eyeshadow matches my skin?

Question

I am japanese, and I was wondering what color matches my kind of skin. ( Anything BUT purple.)

Answer 1

Skin tone is a key consideration. You want makeup colors that match your skin tone.Here's how to determine yours:

Warm skin tone:
1. Look at inner wrist - veins will appear green.
2. Gold jewelry is more flattering than silver jewelry.

Cool skin tone:
1. Look at inner wrist - veins will appear blue.
2. Silver jewelry is more flattering.

If you have a warm tone - consider dark navy & coffee brown eyeliners, and warm champagne colors for eye shadow.

Try experimenting w/ different taupe colors & other neutrals w/ a bit of shimmer.

If you have a cool tone- consider deep cobalt blue or intense gray eyeliners. Sheer jewel tone eye shadows w/ a bit of shimmer for a fashion foreward look. (e.g. very sheer blue, sheer jade green) Metallics like a very pearly, soft gray might work well too.

Answer 2

if you have darker eyes/skin nice bronze eyeshadow or liner is very pretty.

if you have lighter eyes/skin a pearly white in the inner corners of your eyes and a light nude colour on the brow bone highlights your eyes.

hoped this helped :]

Answer 3

i think you should use nuetral or pale colors they usualy look the best on lighter skin colored people
if you use purple make sure its a light tone :)
