Advice

If you have dark skin, you really shouldn't do a white face. Try to find a foundation that's only a few shades lighter than your own color.

Skin tone

Generally the darker your skin tone, deeper the eye color. That’s because it absorbs color.

Best looking

Olive skin looks best in light browns with warm undertones, or dark brownish-reds. Stay away from pinks or orange-reds!

:: Dark Skin ::

Avoid pinks or orange-reds!

Dark skin is flattered by deep reds with blue or purple undertones, or deep reddish-browns. Avoid pinks or orange-reds!

Foundation for dark skin

Darker skin has a lot of yellow pigment, so choose a foundation that has yellow undertones.
