≡ 9 Makeup And Beauty Tips For Women With A Dusky Skin Tone 》 Her Beauty

There
is no denying the fact that women with dusky skin look simply
amazing. So if you are one of the lucky women rocking a dusky
complexion, we can only say – wear it with pride! Here are 9 makeup
and beauty tips that will help you create truly beautiful looks.

Use
gentle cleaners

Cleaning
your skin is a must, especially if you experience a bit of dryness.
If you’re wearing makeup, make sure you use a very gentle product
to remove it without damaging the skin. Micellar water is one of
those skin cleansers that is gentle enough, but will do a great job
at cleaning your face – without rinsing it!

Skip
the eyeliner

It’s
generally considered that women with dusky skin tone should outline
their eyes like crazy – as if they don’t stand out enough! Well,
you can try using mascara with no liner at all, paired with some
bright shimmery eye-shadow – it’ll keep your eyes looking fresh
even after a long day at work. Leave the eyeliner for evening gowns
and special events when you need to add that extra something to your
look.

Enjoy
your bold brows

It’s
a general trend to pluck and thread those gorgeous thick brows that
are given to us ladies by Mother Nature. Well, it’s time to drop
those tweezers for a while and remember what your face actually looks
like. You’d be surprised! Of course, this doesn’t mean you
shouldn’t groom your brows at all – remove those odd stray hairs
that don’t belong anywhere and do a slight trim with scissors for a
gorgeous natural brow.

Moisturize

We,
girls, should look after our skin regardless of skin tone, so make
sure you moisturize daily after shower with a proper cream or tonic
that is good for your skin type. This will help you get rid of
dryness and flakiness, creating that healthy glow we’re all
striving for.

Foundation
is the key

Ladies
with dusky complexion should be especially careful when choosing the
right foundation. If you opt for a lighter colour, you skin will look
weird and unnatural, so it’s important to pick the right shade. If
you can’t find the right one, just mix one yourself! Get a
foundation that is lighter than your skin tone and one that is
darker, and make a mix that suits your skin tone perfectly. You’ll
see the difference immediately!

Create
a hair routine

It’s
easy to go overboard with all those masks, oils, and other hair
beauty tricks your mother taught you. But you’ll have to try! It’s
important to have a healthy routine that doesn’t stress your hair
too much. Say no to chemical-induced shampoos, use homemade natural
conditioner, and try to avoid dyeing your hair, even if you find a
few grey hairs here and there. Your hair will thank you! And put on
some coconut oil from time to time to soothe a dry scalp and create
silky locks.

Choose
lipstick wisely

Obviously,
what works for lighter skin tones is usually a no-no for women with
dusky complexion. Try juicy darker shades of your favourite colours,
depending on the look you’re going for: coral red, berry, burgundy,
hot pink, brown, plum, etc. Classy bright red does wonders for you
when you want to look fresh and ready for everything. Matte brown and
subdued colours like plum and berry are suitable for casual looks.

Powder
is a no-no

Powders make
your skin look cakey and extremely bright. Remember that creamy
foundation is your best friend, it will make your skin look smooth
like you aren’t wearing any makeup at all. Powders simply don’t
blend well with dusky skin tones.

Don’t
forget the blush

Of course, you’d have to use shades different from the ones used by light-skinned ladies. Opt for a mix of gold and rose that will create a beautiful glowing effect. Shades like burgundy, prunes, brown, and copper also work extremely well when you too to add an extra something to you look.
