Tell me what your skin is like and I'll tell you what shade you need
- Clear skin. They are those whose veins become transparent and burn as soon as a ray of sunlight appears. They are the ones that will best look with shadows in light tones, such as pale pink. As, in addition, these girls usually have light, green or blue eyes, they are also very beautiful with shadows in the same tone . If you have a little darker skin, silver tones are also very flattering.
- Medium skin. Those with a medium skin tone can go for a ton of shades. Those that most favor them are brown and gold, among which rose gold and bronze stand out. Coral tones also look great .
- Dark skin. If your skin is olive or black you can dare with vibrant tones such as violet or blue. If they seem a bit excessive, you can always combine them with black tones.
The joker shadow
If you do not want to risk, it is best to opt for shades of nude colors in all its versions. Beige, cream or brown look good on everyone, regardless of skin tone. You only need three shades . To apply them, put the medium tone on the outside of the eyelid and marking the basin. The darkest is placed on the lash line and the lightest in the arch of the eyebrow, the center of the eyelid and the tear duct as an illuminator.
