Natural Makeup?
I am a makeup artist so I hope that this helps:
Your eyes are your face's most prominent feature. Eye shadow contours, eyeliner defines and mascara adds length and drama to your lashes. Your perfect palette depends on the depth of color in your skin, as well as its undertones.
Determine if your skin has warm or cool undertones. If you have darker skin, accentuate your eyes with shadows and liners whose colors are richer and deeper in intensity.
Enhance a warm complexion with shadows that range between soft orange and rust, from honey to cinnamon. Choose liners that are soft to rich brown, and opt for brown or brown- black mascara.
Complement cooler complexions with shadows in varying shades of blue, purple and pink. Go with liners that are slate gray to soft purple, and wear black or dark gray mascara. Green flatters skin that has both warm and cool undertones. Blue-greens complement cooler complexions, and brownish, earthy greens enhance warmer ones.
Add glamour to a warm complexion with coppery or golden shadow. Pearly purple or silvery blue shadows will glamorize a cooler skin tone.
Tips:
Take some time to experiment with color. Head to your local department store and have a beauty consultant do each eye in a different color scheme to envision your possibilities.
The right brow shape will accentuate your eyes and enhance your features. Pencil in thin brows for more definition.
Warnings:
Choose long-wearing and hypoallergenic eye makeup formulas to minimize potential eye irritation.
Consider lipstick shades that complement your skin tone. Look for deep currants and luscious plums if your skin is ebony or a rich deep brown, and consider coffees, terracottas and brownish reds if you have medium-brown skin. Lighter skin is radiant in varying shades of caramel, peach and coral.
Choose a lip liner that is one shade darker than your lipstick color. This will add definition, and when filled into the lips, will promote longer-lasting color.
Remember that darker tones will enhance the size of your lips, while lighter shades will appear to minimize them.
Wear lip and blush colors that are in the same color family. Opt for coppery and golden lipstick shades when wearing a bronzer.
Add a touch of foundation to darker lips before applying lip color. Or fill lighter lips in with lip pencil before applying lipstick to both lips.
Choose a finish appropriate to the occasion. Matte formulas offer a classic, more conservative look, while glossy formulas make for a sexy pout.
ALSO
Since skin tones vary greatly among women of African descent, finding the right face makeup can be tricky. The wrong makeup can lead to an ashen or flat complexion, but with a little insight and a lot of experimentation, you can minimize the guesswork and put your best face forward.
Steps:
1. Look beyond your skin's color and examine its undertones. Rich ebony complexions usually have cool, almost blue undertones, while brown and caramel complexions have warm golden undertones.
2. Choose from shades that appear to be in your color range and may complement your complexion's undertones. Remember that foundation will look different on your skin than it does in a bottle or on a thumbnail palette.
3. Consider lines that specialize in black beauty products for the widest color selection. Always try foundation on your jawline or the inside of your wrist to get the best idea of a color match.
4. Set your makeup with a loose translucent powder. If you're blessed with a flawless even complexion, skip the foundation and opt for a tinted moisturizer or tinted powder over bare skin.
5. Contour your cheekbones with a sweep of blush. Plums, currants and mauves will flatter a medium to dark complexion. Caramel, honey and apricot will complement a medium to light complexion.
Tips:
Bronzer is an alternative to blush for those with a warmer complexion. Dust a light coating over the face, contouring at temples and cheekbones.
When faced with uneven skin pigment, consult a beauty expert for suggestions on a foundation that will even out your skin tone. You may be a candidate for two colors, that when spread over the right areas, will render the uniform look you desire.
Think about your skin type when selecting a face makeup. Oilier skins do better with water-based liquid foundations and cream blush, while drier skins benefit from cream formulas.
Warnings:
Testers in drug stores may not be sterile. Buy with a store guarantee: if the color is not right, then the item is returnable.
I love to use MAC even though its expensive, but you can use anything Almay, Loreal True Match, Covergirl, Maybelline, and so on.
Hope that helps.
Natural Makeup?
I think Beyonce looks really good. Just a little eyeliner and mascara and some lip gloss should be fine.
Natural Makeup?
I think lil kim make up rocks.
Natural Makeup?
I had the same problem. But I found out how to do it and my make up looks just like Carrie Underwoods. Here's what I do. For foundation I use sheer cover. I like it becuase they have it for every skin tone. You can buy it at Target. when you use it blend it really good and it will look like your not even wearing any makeup. Next I put a little bit of cover girl blush an the apples of my cheeks, but just enough so that you look healthy and radiant not like a clown. Then blend that upward into your hair line. Now for that natural look you dont really need eye liner but you decide. I use lancome base mascara and black mascara. then for my eyelids I use a shimmery skin colored eye shadow on my brow bone and then a couple shades darker on my lid to the creese. everything that I use on my eyes is Lancome wich is at Dillards but you dont have to.
I hope this does the same for you. good luck. %26lt;3

It's all about the type of makeup your using. Try a mineral makeup which offers great coverage but looks totally natural. Try Simply-Minerals, they have 17 foundation shades from very pale to very dark so one will match you great. After that just add a little eyeshadow and only go for natural/neutral colors. This will look natural, flawless, and not over done.
Natural Makeup?
In my opinion, we should use some makeup. It shows the respectable to others. I don't agree the idea before. But i have a friend at millionairematch.com who pointed this idea by her experience.
Natural Makeup?
That is not natural make-up that is way to much. Just because it is in earthey tones does not make it natural
