Makeup tips for pale/fair skin




Having fair skin can be a little tricky to deal with. However, once you get the right products and colors, you will look great. 


Pale skin is very transparent around your areas like your eyes, therefore you may able to see little blood vessels. 
Foundation can be a bit of a challenge when trying to find your best match because most brands don't have very light foundations. If you wear a foundation that is too dark it may end up looking orange  or like you are wearing a mask. Therefore, you may find it easier to find a tinted moisturizer, one with a yellow based would be great because it will minimize the red in your skin. Also try to get one that contains SPF because the lighter your skin, the more prone to aging and wrinkling it is. 

For concealer, use a yellow based one on your dark circles in order to minimize the redness caused by the little blood vessels. 

Blush should not be too bright because it will not complement your skin. Instead try pink and apricot blushes. They will look natural and will make your skin look delicate and soft. 

For your eyes try shimmer eyeshadows in natural colors to add warmth to your face for a daytime look. Try cool tones like grey, navy, lavender also a soft smokey eye will look great on your skin. 

You can have fun with pink and red lipsticks because they look great on fair skin. For a more natural look try light pinks and nudes. 

Until next time,
