Make-up tips for Olive skin?

Hello, I have really dark hair, dark eyes and olive skin. I'm trying to excentuate these features, but I don't know any tips or ways too. What colours best suit features such as these? Make up tips etc. Thank you =)

  1. I really like metallics and darker colors that will really help accentuate your eyes. You might want to try this website: http://www.tomigion.com/phpshop/dolores_tips2.html It gives different makeup tips for olive skin and dark eyes. Hope this helps!
  2. bright berry blush looks amazing on olive skin. if nothing else, i'd recommend that. basically... plums, roses and browns look really good. try a plum gloss, too. avoid gray or silver-toned colors because will give your complexion a gray cast. http://a1377.g.akamai.net/7/1377/8278/20040512180105/www.sephora.com/assets/dyn/product/P54428/P54428_hero.jpg ^colors like these
  3. Same! Ok definetly try metallic colours OR bluishey, greenish purple! Not only are they really in, but we're the lucky ones that can actually flaunt it because they look AWESOME on US!!! Sparkly, gel purple or golden eyeliners WILL bring out ur eyes!! Straight dark hair with glossy shines always make guys... n girls DIE!!! And make sure ur skins always mosturised because dry olive skin looks HORRIBLE BUT moist skin looks AWESOME! Use a Loreal Hypoderm mosturiser it does wonders!!! OH AND STAY AWAY FROM PINKS!!! Looks too artificial and definetly nooooooo glossy BABY PINK LIP GLOSSES UH HU! NO WAY! =D Good luck!
  4. honestly everyone looks good in shades of peach and brown on eyelids peach shimmer on lids, brown on crease, and again peach shimmer under brows and BLEND! top with some liquid black or brown eyeliner, u can prop ur elbow on a table if u are shaky handed. or just go with a SHARPENED pencil line on top and bottom lids, but if using liquid eyeliner, don't forget to use the same color pencil on bottom lid (not liquid). throw on some peachy-pink blush- not too much! and nice shiny gloss maybe a shade or darker or lighter than ur lips avoid bright pink it looks too unnatural. don't forget to clean up those brows and pencil in if u overplucked, brows really give your eyes like a frame, more attention grabbing.
