Look 3: Cool Skin, Dark Hair:
If you are a pale-skinned brunette you will look fabulous with strong, cool shades of cosmetics.The density of colour provides a striking contrast to your ivory skin tone, while the coolness blends beautifully with your natural look.
This Look Suits You If You Have Cool Skin, Dark Hair:
Your hair is mid-brown to dark brown in colour. Your eyes are brown, blue, hazel, grey or green. You have a cool, China-doll skin tone that tans slowly in the sun.
- Apply foundation or tinted moisturizer. If using foundation, it is likely you will need the palest of shades. Blend in few dots of cream blusher, and finish with a dusting of loose powder.
- Smudge a cool ivory shadow over your eyelids, right up to your eyebrows. Stroke over it with a cotton bud (swab) to blend it. If you find it gathers in creases close to your upper eyelashes.
- Add extra definition with a touch of taupe or khaki eye shadow on your eyelids. This shade works beautifully on your cool colouring and emphasizes the colour of your eyes.
- Now move on to your eyelashes. You need to apply two thin coats of black mascara to create an effective frame to your eyes.
- Slick your eyebrows into place with an eyebrow brush. If they tend to look untidy, hold them in place by spritzing the brush with a little hair spray first.
- Choose a clear shade of berry lipstick to give your look a polished finish. Blot after one coat with a tissue, then re-apply for a longer-lasting finish.
