The usual order, depending on what you use for makeup, is:
Concealer, foundation, powder, blush, mascara, liner, eyeshadow, lip color.
Concealer covers spots, foundation evens the skin, powder smooths it all out, blush highlights cheekbones, eyeliner and eyeshadow go on AFTER powder, because they're easier to wipe off powder if you get it anywhere other than your eyes.
Not everyone wears that much, though, especially not when you're using it for the first time. I usually only use foundation OR powder and mascara.

okay, the best foundation for colored skin is the queen collection by covergirl (queen latifa) the best lipgloss is mac and all the procedes for lipgloss and lipstick from mac goes to help aids (awesome i know) then blush i would have to go woth loreal mineral blush. it's lightweight and flawless. plus it gives the right amount of color and doesn't look cheap or run. hope that helped.

1) Makeup steps: foundation/concealer*, eye makeup, blush, lip color, finishing powder if needed.
Some people put on concealer before foundation; it's a matter of personal preference.
2) For product recommendations check out cosmeticscop.com & makeupalley.com
