Would this look Good on dark skin?

My skin is the same as Oprah. What do you think? It is light blue

My coloring is similar to yours: MAC nw45. I think dark-skinned girls should avoid pastels (especially pastel cosmetics ... yuck!). I'd suggest a deeper shade.

How about one of these colors instead?

<-- coral

<-- sangria

<-- slate

 

[indigoskies]

sangria looks great.

Coral and Sangria are the best options, hate pastels. I am NC42

I agree go for either the coral or sangria.

Still searching for that perfect shade of red lipstick. Any recs for a MAC NW45?

My skin is the same color, and my perfect red is NARS in cabaret (I think it's discontinued, but you can still find it on the NARS website).

Brown-based reds and burgundies work for me.


Also, try the black/african makeup thread!

Thanks for the link to the other thread. I'll have to try the NARS when I get back to the States
