Bright makeup looks bad on me?!?

I can't figure out wat colors to use for makeup. Any bright makeup looks bad on me, such as colored eyeshadowes and bright lipsticks/glosses. Black eyeliner also looks kinda bad but I want a dark liner. My skin is pale could this be why? I have greenish eyes with a bluish ring around the green. What colors shoudl I use? I have blondish (on top) aburnish hair (underneath the blonde kinda). I know this question didn't make much sense.... sry bu tthx for any answers.Bright makeup looks bad on me?!?
I kinda had the same problem. I have really pale skin, and bright colors and dark colors both look bad on me. My eyes are a pale blue but sometimes they change to a greenish. Anyways... I found that the smoky colors looked better. Not a black, but like a grayish color. I also tend to find that pale color's look good on me too. Try a pale color, or a smoky gray color. I hope this helps you out...Bright makeup looks bad on me?!?
blue and green liners an shadows will work best for you. Use brushes to apply. Always use highlighters that are warm, golds, corals. maybe you should head to the mall and have your face made up for free. if you like it, buy it.
use a light light pink eyeshadow and dark pink lipgloss
Try using foundation, powder and blush that fit your complexion. I know plenty of girls that wear too dark or too light and it makes them look so washed out. Also, try wearing pink or light brown eyeshadow, brown eyeliner and brown mascara. I have green eyes and black and brown look good on my eyes. Also, instead of wearing a thick lipstick, try wearing a lipgloss or chapstick with a little color too it.
Instead of using ';colors'; try using natural shades. Because your eyes are two colors, they may bring a conflict to the colors you are trying to wear.





If you are adamant about finding a color then try different texture. I find that wearing power in the summer and liquid in the winter helps. Also Mixing colors or applying a shimmer may help as well.
I had the same problem. You can purchase a tint to apply underneath the make up. I use green made by Revlon, you can buy it at Dillard's, or you can use yellow. Then apply a light make up over it, it looks great and stays on. Any eye-make up should be subtle, it should not be so noticeable that a woman looks like a clown. I have blue eyes and use a light color on the eyelids like off white and a soft darker shade color above the eyelid. You need to experiment, you will find out what works for you. The trick is to use it sparingly. Good Luck.

It might be because you have a pale compexion. Black eyeliner and bright colors will come across too harsh. For a foundation you may always use a color that is one teint darker than your skin. If you're not sure about the color, ask for a sample you can try at home. In the daylight it always looks different than in the shop.


For an eyeliner you can use a brown pencil, because it's a shadow color. Eyeshadows with a brownish undertone will look more naturel than bright colors too. You might want to concider terracotta, mocca, chocolate and creme colors.


For the lips I can give you the same advise. Don't use colors that are too bright.


Hopefully this will help.
Pastels may make you pop better. Avoid the roses for blush and go for the peaches. Try a gray or plum liner.Because of the natural bright color of your mouth, try lip glosses that are not harsh. Good luck and in your case less may be more.
Use brown eye shadow to bring out the blue in your eyes and also brown mascara to go with your hair color you need to use a base color to eveen out you skin tone and I suggest pinkish browns for lips and blush no go as close to natural foundation try bare minerals or laura geller collection they will help you match up perfect colors for you likes and skin tone good luck and have fun do not be afraid of color
use the pink colour make up base will make your face look good.





don't put the eyeshadow or eyeliner, just put mascara and blushes then you will look sweet
For your lips, use nude colored gloss that's closer to your skin tone. For your cheeks, like pink or orange. For your eyes, seeing as you can't wear blue and green (which would look goodv on you by the way), just try concealer on the lid, a light highlighter color for yor brow line, and brown liner and mascara. Also, a good bronzer powder might be you secret to success. Good Luck!!!
