Liquid foundation:

Best way to blend foundation is to mix distilled water in it and blend it in skin by rubbing, else streaks of foundation will appear after some time.



2

Loose powder:

Always use a loose powder that is transparent to avoid a shinny look.



3

Eyes:

Avoid an eyeliner or use in a thin line along the shape of your eye. Never apply it on the lower lid.



4

Lips:

Matte lip colours with berry shades, plums, burgundies and all shades of browns look great with dark skin.



5

Blush:

Coral, rose, deep orange are the colours for your skin. Avoid browns and peachy shades for blush-on.
