Answer
Hello
Soft dewy looks work well with fair skin because it tends to get very rosy. Pinks, corals and nudes work great for day time looks and browns (from light to dark) work well for evening looks. Black might be too harsh and bright colours may make you appear washed out if they are not matched correctly. For lips you can play around – from nude glossy shades to deep reds against a softer back drop of baby pink blush and a little bit of mascara.
Question
I find eyeshadows daunting. So many colours and I don’t really know what to do with them or how to pair them to create a look. I would like to know, what colours do you recommend for dark brown eyes and a medium to dark complexion. Could I also go with bold colours like yellows, pinks, purples, blues…? I really like the smoky eye look.

Hi Adele,I want to learn how to do make-up for my face and complexion from the professionals. I was trying to do it through a certain brand line, and wanted to know about certification as a make-up artist. I wanted to know how you got into the business and how ordinary women like myself can learn from professionals for our own faces. Thank you.

What would be the right kind of colour brush for my skin tone? Think Kerry Washington’s complexion. I would like something that’s natural looking and matte. Not too shiny.
