Best Colors For A Tanned Skin Tone.

Some people get tanned skin during summer while others have a natural skin color that looks tanned. A skin that tanned because of being too exposed to sunlight does not  return to normal within a short while and you might need to slightly adjust the colors you use for your make up and clothing temporarily. If you have a tan skin, the following suggestions can help you choose the right clothe colors to match your skin :
Best Colors for a tanned skin tone.
  • The color of your clothes should always compliment your skin tone. Tanned skin tends to fit in almost all color tones but looks better in warm colors with yellow undertones. Golden, brown and orange shades look great on a tanned skin.
  • You can also go for neutral colors like white and black which suite all skin colors.
  • White clothes look great on a tanned skin if you are slim and so should be avoided if you are plump as they tend to emphasize on your plump look.
  • If you have a dark tan skin, black blends greatly with your skin tone. Any shades of brown also look amazing on a dark tan skin.
  • Light green and yellow shades tend to emphasize on the tan and do a great job in complementing your skin tone.
  • Even if most colors look great on a tanned skin, avoid pale colors which tend to give you a pale boring look when not combined with other colors. Ice colors tend to give you a fresher and more attractive look as compared to pastel colors.

How To Look Natural With Make-up On.

Look Natural With Make-up On.
A natural look even after make-up is desirable to every woman as compared to the plastic and sometimes cakey face we sometimes get from make up.To ensure a great natural look with make up on, follow the following tips :

Removing old make up :
Always clean and moisturize your skin before you go to bed : Remove all the make up  for the day by dabbing with a soft cloth wet with clean water or make up remover. After removing make up, rinse you face gently and dry by dabbing then moisturize with a natural moisturizer.
Picking foundation :

Foundation is the base of every make up. Choose foundation with a color that is most closest to your skin color so it blends completely with your color. Go for a wet foundation if you have a dry or mature skin. Cream- powder foundations re very good at covering up all the rough areas of your face. If you have relatively smooth skin with few imperfections, you can pick a fluid foundation which is light and quite translucent.See How to Prepare your skin for make-up.
Choosing the right concealer:
Go for a concealer that mutes imperfections without changing your natural skin tone. Yellow toned concealers are the best as they don't interfere with your kin color.
Keep make-up light :
Go as simple as you can with make up and if possible skip liner or shadow to avoid having too much bulk on your face.
Choose the right blush color :
Blush color should be as close to your skin color as possible to avoid making it too obvious that you have blushed your cheeks.
Keep your lips soft and glossy:
Apply lip pencil of your choice, and blend to make your lips appear softer and then coat with lip gloss. Lip gloss should be applied with a brush for a more glossy look.
Choose your brushes:
Always go for quality brushes with quality bristles for a better , smoother and more finished look after make up. the brushes should also be kept clean.
