What makeup product will flatter you the most? We give you the complete breakdown on items that’ll suit just about anyone.
How often have we bought a product only to realize that it does not suit our complexion? Well, here are some tips to consider when you’re unsure about applying a particular item.
Lips: When unsure about a lip product, define your lips using a pinkish brown lip liner. This creates a neutral base prior to product application. This trick works on fair, medium or dark complexions. Once you’re done, finish off with a lip colour of your choice.
Eyes: Skip the black and opt for a dark brown liner when in doubt. A deep cocoa eyeliner never fails to make an impact.
Cheeks: Choosing a right blush colour can be tricky. Some blushes appear too red or too pink on certain complexions. To combat this ‘beauty problem’, opt for a soft pink powder or cream blush to draw attention to your cheeks.
Also, when in doubt it is always best to go for sheer shades as they are more forgiving. These shades work on a variety of complexions as they blend into your natural complexion effortlessly and provide just the right pop of colour. Sheer makeup has been making a comeback on the runway, so never be afraid to experiment with this new trend. If you’re looking for more vibrancy, layer the more sheer shades over each other.
So head on over to the gallery above for our picks, because we think that we might have just hit the jackpot with these universally flattering product. Irrespective of your skin tone, these picks are bound to bring out the best in you.
