Question:
Make Up for Brunettes
Hi
All of my life I have been blonde, up until last month when I dyed my hair dark brown. I'm enjoing being a brunette except that none of my make up, which looked good with blonde hair, suits me at all with brown hair, especially my lip colours.
This may seem a silly question, but which colours will generally suit me now I have brown hair? I have pale skin and blue eyes.
Thanks :)
I was blonde and changed to a brunette. I've just found that I need to wear a tad more bronzer/blusher to make sure I'm not washed out. the rest of my make up seems fine.
What make up colours were you wearing as a blonde, and why dont you think they suit you anymore?
I think most colours will suit, but find that I can take much stronger colours when I go brunette. Lip wise just go to the counters and have a play, most MAs will help you out :)
It is mainly the lipstick/lip glosses that don't look right. They were dak red and that just makes me look almost gothic now! I have tried more natural tones for lips but that doesn't seem to look right either. Maybe I'm just not use to it ;)
I have been using more blusher/bronzer already or I also look washed out.
You must have a similar colouring to me now... I use Liv Tyler as my makeup idol although I'd give anything to look like her what suits her colouring must suit me.
here are a few pics for inspiration:
:)
everythings always fresh and natural like peaches, pinks etc. but she always looks :throb:
eta: Liv's trademark is red lippy and she always looks fab with it :)
