Look Natural And Lose The Brown Look

by Beyond Beauty Basics

Let’s just get this out of the way right now…unless you have brown skin and want to look natural, the everything brown look is OVER!
Nothing’s worse than the look of a dark brown (eyeliner looking) lipliner with a frosted putty colored lipstick. It looks as if you’ve been dredged out of a river.

Natural tones in make-up should be lighter and/or darker versions of the colors already present in your skin and on your lips. If you have yellow based skin, colors in the orange/red category are your naturals. If you have pink based skin, pink/reds are your naturals.
Most of Hollywood has gotten on track with the “pretty” thing.

Colors in make-up are back in a big way. Brown based shadows, blush and lipstick are going by the wayside (for now) and cleaner, brighter colors are being seen everywhere. Whether the colors are soft and muted or bright and electric… it’s all good.

(By the way) I worked for MAC during the “brown” phase and put it on everyone and loved it. In a few years I’ll probably be telling you all that it’s back (again) and how fabulous it looks.
