Make~up tips for pale skin?

Ok so i have really pale skin and im a bit of a makeup junkie. I get told alot that a certain color eyeshadow or eyeliner doesnt look good or stands out too much. So i was just wondering, in general, what colors of eyeshadow, eyeliner, lipgloss, etc. Would look good w/ pale skin? Oh and i have razor cut black hair that is about halfway between my ears and shoulders at longest. If that matters any lol. Im wondering cuz theres a dance at school tomorrow and i wanna look nice. Hope u can help! Thanks in advanceMake~up tips for pale skin?
Pink blush looks so pretty on pale skin! Also soft shimmer on your cheekbones and brow bones will look beautiful. For drama, wear liquid black eyeliner on your top lid only. Finish with black mascara (once again, only on the top lid) and tinted pink gloss.





OH! And DO NOT use bronzer. It always looks fake and cheap on naturally pale skin.Make~up tips for pale skin?

You can use any color you chose, just make sure it isn't a dark pigment. Being pale you can't wear dark pigment eye shadows and liners, you have to be more subtle and not use a heavy hand when applying your make up for daytime wear. With your dark hair you can get a little heavier and more defined for night wear though and wear much darker pigments. Especially if you are going to a club or concert, get a little wild! Just experiment a little when you get time. You can also get free make overs at the larger department stores with the large variety of make ups. I have gotten a lot of ideas by doing this. You don't have to purchase anything to do this either. Check it out.
ummm kinda depends on your eye color.....





blue: eyeshadow colors would be purples...blues...you could do smokey eyes with black and grey that always looks good.





green: browns...golds maybe..





brown: you can really do anything but nothing too drastic..stick to subtle colors but to the point where it still stands out.





if your really pale i would do a foundation thats maybe one or two shades darker...like light neutral..nothing too tanish or dark...test a small amount on your hand to see if it blends well. then follow up with similiar color pressed powder or you could do a little bit of bronzer on your cheeks..but when i mean little..ireally mean little. or try some soft colored brush...





lipgloss.i would stick to something close to your lip color. do not do lipstick unless your absolutely confident in yourself that it looks good.





if you have any girlfriends that are really good with makeup or a sister..cousin..idk anyone whos good in that category id get them to help...id love to do your makeup cuz im really good at it but thats the best i can give you..sorry and good luck!
Well i have pale skin and i just wear pale foundation?


I dont know what you look like so i cant tell but if you dont have skin that goes red easily, you could wear blush and if you want- Bronzer.


But if you want your makeup to look nice I would concentrate on the eyes:


Blue eyes- Orange/Cream eyeshadow


Green eyes- Purple or pink


Brown/hazel- Purple


Wear black eyeliner and clear lipgloss.





Look it up on makeup websites about what colours make your eyes look nice, Good luck!
What color eyes do you have?


If you have green, go for a purple to make your eyes pop!


If you have blue eyes, bronzes and golds will work well


If you have brown eyes, almost any color will work but blue will bring contrast with brown eyes the most.





and just remember, if you're going to play up your eyes, got for a more neutral lip shade and either no blush or very little or contour w/ bronzer under the cheekbones. suck in your cheeks and sweep the bronzer along the bottom of your cheekbones. and black mascara works on everybody!
use powder bronzer (too faced sun bunny is my fav). apply it w/ a big fluffly brush. use the lighter color on ur whole face and the darker 1 on cheeks and forhead. put it on ur neck also, so no1 can tell its fake. another option is mixing a bit of liquid bronzer in ur foundation :)
For pale skin dark make-up is the best. ;) since it makes your eyes be more a center of attention and they pale skin will be a positive thing on you. :)
Your Highness! recommends MAC cosmetics for a flawless finish... Use MAC Studio Fix in NC25, MAC blush on Peaches shade and MAC lipstick in Satiate... Its give a natural healthy glow! Try it!

First off, when you have pale skin, try to stay away from liquid liner, as it can stand out too much. Opt for a soft brown, dark copper, or olive brown kohl liner. When choosing colors, you have to keep in mind that even though you may want a dark purple or bright pink, against your skin it won't look natural. Instead, go down a few shades, and pick a soft lavendar or powder pink. They would still look colorful against your skin without looking harsh. It's always a safe bet to stick to neutrals like beiges, browns, peaches, coppers, golds and soft light pinks.





The best colors to use are ones that are complimentary to your eye color:





Brown eyes - Soft pinks, Olives, Baby Blues, Sea Blues, Turquoises, Teals, Lavendars, Purples, Greens, Golds.





Blue eyes - Coppers, Corals, Bronzes, Peaches, Red or Yellow based Browns, Golden Pinks, Silvers, Grays.





Green eyes - Corals, Soft Pinks, Bronzes, Peaches, Olive Browns, Red Browns, Purples, Plums, Lavendars, Golds.





Hazel - Soft pinks, Olives, Navys, Sea Blues, Lavendars, Purples, Grays, Blacks.





Also, when you have light skin it's easier to notice flaws in your application. Make sure to blend your foundation, any powders you use, and your eyeshadows very well.





Keep your lips simple and neutral. Opt for a soft light brown, pale peach or creme baby pink lipstick or lipgloss. Use soft pinks or peaches on your cheeks. Bronzers tend to look ';muttled'; on pale skin, so if you do use them, use a VERY soft brush (Windsor %26amp; Newton 240 goat hair brush) and blend really well onto the cheekbones, sides of your nose and along the jawline. Mac's Mineral SkinFinish looks beautiful on pale skin, it gives it a luminous glow.





Hope this helps! ;)
