Makeup Tips for black women, real contours up here

It’s always a billion dollar question. The one who’s looking out for 9 most makeup tips for darker skin, is the one who knew pretty well about its real definition. A black woman should go for makeup only to lighten her skin tone?

A mature skin in its 40’s?

“No more metal eyeshadows”

If I were in my 40’s, I would wave farewell to metal shadows. Stylists look so angelic just because they knew when not to distract people towards creases. It’s high time to get away from purple and endorse subtle.  More the foil on eyelids more aged it looks.

Sexy foil eye palette under 40s!

I would rather pick something bright with a matte-touch. Darker skin against bright shades is a cliché. With underplayed mascara tones as black and grey, creases get hidden completely giving that desired magical eyes.

Tip: We don’t look ‘Snow Queen’, sporting white eye shadows. We look like one of her subjects sentenced as fashion victims.

I also noted that this goes well with Asian women too. Dramatic effects implied, I couldn’t get where the myth come from.

“Makeup is nothing but caking up of primer. You get that ‘white tone’ you see. Ughh! She’s too old for makeup. Eww, her sagging skin…”

Oh, that dramatic look given by heavy eye-liner!

“Please don’t look beaten up”

Bottom eyelids look dramatic with thin eyeliner. Heavy kohl chokes the eyelids for Afro-American/dusky skin tones. Instead of stashing it, let’s make it lighter on bottom eyelids. Heavy bottom liner makes it look like we’re worn out, to be actual.

Going heavy on top, thinner on lower

Winged look lifted up by eye liner on top lids creates that magical chocolate princess look. False eyelashes are an age old trick if needed.

Christina like eyebrows?

“I don’t want to look like I’m waxed to scare”

One look at Meagan Good like brows, and I couldn’t help the feeling that she is an angry chic trying her best to look all gay! Bald eye brows or thinner eyebrows it’s called it doesn’t look good on anyone no matter if they’re Afro-Americans/ Asians.

Scandinavian people stand out from the crowd, when it comes to thinner brows.

Flat brow brush accompanied by brow powder would make it. After all, 75% of our face is accentuated by eye brows.

Lip liner of contrary tones?

By the way, “I don’t want to look a Gangsta chic!” forever.
