Re: How to choose makeup that compliments your outfit
I wanted to start this thread for a very long time..i want to know how to choose liptick/blush /eyemakeup with different colored dresses:
For example
My Skintone: warm undertone, NC 35 .
Eyes:brown
Hair: very dark borwn
Color of the dress: pink and sky blue with some gold and silver kaam .pink is predominant color.
1-How should be the makeup?
Depends on what colors you like. I heart pink and am always looking for excuse to wear it. Sky blue can also be done beautifully…a silvery look with a contrasting V…pale pink blush and pale pink lips. I don’t think I’d do the dewy look. It would be more matte.
2-Which colors suits well with what?
You can pair lots of colors together…I think the key to blend well and make sure you’re not being too loud or focusing too much on matching with the outfit.
3- peach/coral lipstick/blush goes well with what? Likewise with pinks/reds and nude
I like them with purpley colors
4-what to avoid?
I’d avoid making sure all the colors in your clothes are also on your eyes. Some people like that and actually request it. It can look nice but it can easily look tacky as well.
5-when to choose dewy look? And when matte look?
I love dewy look for summer. Lots of gold, bronzey looks and the dewy finish works well with that. I think the more makeup you have on, the less dewy you want to be.
GS makeup gurus please teach me/us..How to choose makeup look that can compliment each other ( MU and outfit) to bring out our features more.
Reha/M can u make it a sticky
It totally depends on your features. Small face, round face, big face, big nose, small nose, big eyes, almond shaped eyes, smaller eyes, high cheekbones, no cheekbones, etc.
What do you like about yourself? Everyone has certain features they like or are special about them.
I will say…I love contouring. I think it completely finishes the look of someone…even a little bit of it makes a difference.
