With this type of color profile, less is more, so stay away from makeup that is too dark, or you will look overly made up. For foundation, go for the lighter shades in a color palette, with white and pink undertones. As for eye shadows, you look best in soft pinks and neutrals with a dark brown or navy eyeliner. Stick to blushes in nude or soft pink and lipsticks that are soft pink or tinted glosses in a sheer berry color.

With this type of color profile, you want to pick colors that have a golden undertone, but are not too dark otherwise, you will look overly made up. Be sure to balance out your makeup by emphasizing one aspect over another. For example: If you go with a strong lip color, then use a lighter shade of blush. For foundation, choose colors that are on the light and fair side in cream, ivory and beige tones. As for eye shadows, go with champagne, sand or bronze combined with a dark brown or dark green eyeliner. Stick to blushes in the peach shades and lipsticks that are in the coral pink family. For more drama, go with a sheer lip gloss in red.

With your complexion you can do darker and dramatic makeup. Your coloring can handle defined eyes, matched by equally strong lips. Choose colors that have a somewhat yellow undertone, and avoid colors with a red base. For foundation, choose colors that are medium beige. As for eye shadows, pick plums and mauve and combine with a dark purple or black eyeliner. Stick to blushes that are mauve or berry and lipsticks in the brick or berry family. Lipsticks that have a brown undertone will work well on you.
