dark Dark skin

If you are in this category the aim is to use shades which intensify your natural skin tone. Dark, iridescent grey, bordeaux, sparkling emerald green and sapphire blue are attractive colours for your eyelids. Copper also does wonders to set off your eyes. Remember that pastel tones are an absolute no-no!

For your lips, a golden tone works well for everyday wear. To create a dramatic look use a lip colour in wine red or black cherry.

For your cheeks, a bronze tone also works since very dark skin needs intense colour. To create accents you can use plum, berry tones and cerise.

The best nail colours for you are classic rouge noir or metallics.

Reflection Latina types

You have skin tones ranging from dark beige to olive or you are very tanned skin. Your hair and eye colour ranges from hazel to chocolate. You are brunette!

Make up colours in warm earth tones suit brunettes particularly well. You are especially suited to eye colours in brown, gold, copper and olive.

On your lips, try luscious peach tones or shimmering caramel. If you want to glam it up a yellow-toned red shows off your mouth perfectly.

For your cheeks, a true bronzer brings out the golden undertones of your skin type. A coral-coloured blush, (favourite to Hollywood star Eva Longoria) looks great for the summer.

blonde Blondes

Pay particular attention to the undertone of your complexion: if it is more of a blue tint, cool colours will work for you but if it is more of a yellow tone, warm tones are best.

For daytime, champagne, beige, gold, and pastel tones look good on your eyes. In the evening, purple and aubergine work well. If you want some sparkle then silver works brilliantly.

Your lips look great with colours that bring out your natural lip colour, such as pink or berry tones. Or if you want to make a big impression go for it with a sophisticated classic red or a diva style black cherry effect.

Pink and apricot blush suits all blondes.
