PINK MAKEUP IDEAS FROM SA BEAUTY BLOGGER FOR DARK SKIN GIRLS

1. Blushing in Pink

At this stage a melanin rich girl already knows that brick reds, cranberry and deep brown colors and mauves look remarkably stunning against her dark skin tone. But, if you’re looking for brighter pops of color — in the warmer months come spring or summer and want to look a bit more whimsical and not too serious— different shades of pink are a must! And which pink blushes are right for you, you ask? Well, Just about any shade of pink that isn’t too light, chalky white  or grey. They can look dull and flat against your skin and make you look like you don’t have a clue when it comes to makeup, and that’s not true. Instead, try bright pinks with fuchsia or magenta undertones for intense color. Want to go for a softer approach? Use a rosy pink blush for a natural look!

2. Bright & Bold Lipstick

From bright, hot and even neon, pink lipstick really stands out and gives your complexion the perfect boost of color!  Stick to matte if the color is a little light as light matte lipsticks usually make melanin rich women look ‘hungry’. Lol I see you nodding your head there!!!  A high high-shine pink, whether it’s a deep pink or a light pink works wonders on dark skin tones. The Lipsticks with rich purple or fuchsia undertones are ideal. And for those days when you’re just not feeling bright and bold, try a matte bubble gum pink or a deep, rosy pink shade for plenty of color — without the drama!

3. Pigmented Pink Eye Shadows

Light PINK MAKEUP IDEAS offer so much versatility for your skin tone! You can wear a metallic or cool lilac pink to work — or even rock a daytime black smoky eye with just a hint of shine. Pink eyeshadow compliments a dark/ black Smokey eye. The key is to always line eyes and apply plenty mascara or fake eyelashes when using bright or light eyeshadows.

If you really want to go all out, at night, HOT pink eye liner is the answer!  Use it in the form of a statement liner across your top lash line or all over your lid and smoke it out with a black liner.
