purple or blue eyliner will look nice on you. maybe brown for subtle definition? & then keep your lips natural as you do with tinted lipbalm (like nivea caregloss & shine)

go to sephora, & get a free makeover, they will do what it best for your facial structure, & will pick colors that match your skintones. They always use the works, so your eyeliner problem will be solved.

Go to youtube.com & type in makeup tutorials. Sephora on line is great to watch vs. going to the store because you can practice yourself. If you go to the store you won’t get hands on experience. FYI not everyone with dark skin needs purple eyeshadow, which is what most store will put on you. There are lots of videos so take your time an you’ll be fine. Have fun.

Try to put the eyeliner on your top lid only & angle it from very thin at the inside corner to your eye to making it wider toward the outside corner. This is a great dramatic effect on the eyes & without the liner on the bottom at all it will hopefully keep you from looking so much like a raccoon.

What you might want to do is put in a little color in your eyes..but no so much. I say a little bit of pink or white. You don’t want to wear mascara if you have long eyelashes. But if you put on one slash of mascara, that is alright, cu that will bring out your eyes. You want to put a little bit of a light blush on but no like baby doll blush. It is alright to put the lipgloss if you have dark skin. What you can do is buy some of the red lipstick…then put on some clear thin lipgloss. Yes..do not put on eye liner..since you have dark skin. Dark skin & eyeliner will make you look like a freak.

Use brown eyeliner not black. I have big eyes too so, i usually just line the top lid & use masacra on the top lashes also. If your lashes are long always curl them.
