How to Make Up Brown Skin

Those who go to the beach not only do it to recreate and have a good time in the company of friends and family, there are also those who want to show off their body, because they have tried hard to follow a diet or perhaps they have recently had an aesthetic operation.

However, one of the main reasons why bathers usually go to the beach is to get a dream tan.

It is common knowledge that the skin is considered the largest organ that the human being has, because it covers the entire body. It is the layer that covers the muscles, bones and the rest of the organs. Hence the importance of taking care of it and always keeping it healthy.

In addition, the skin is a fundamental part of our external appearance. Therefore, it is not enough just to take care of it. If we want to always look good, it is necessary that we dedicate some time to treat and make it up.

One of the most versatile skin types that exist is white or fair skin, since it seems that any type of makeup goes well. However, within the human race there is a lot of variety and, therefore, there are not only people with white skin, there is also dark skin, olive or brown, etc.

By having one of these skin types, you may have doubts about which makeup best fits you. If that’s your case, you have nothing to worry about. Today, I will be sharing with you a series of steps and recommendations to make up brown skin, whether you have that type of skin yourself or want to make up someone else.

Although, at present, the theme of makeup is aimed at both men and women, this time I will be addressing women.

Instructions for making up brown skin

Brown skin, by nature, is radiant skin, blurs imperfections and is more luminous than others. If you have it, you don’t have to worry about looking for a way to show off a tan tone throughout the year. So it can be said that you are privileged.

If you go to a job interview or go out with your friends to a disco night, this type of makeup will come in handy, since you do not need to fall into excesses. You just need to do the following:

  1. Prepare your skin by applying a sun protection factor. This, regardless of whether you have tanned skin, since the sun’s rays affect the skin aggressively during much of the year.
  2. By applying a cream with a high sun protection factor you will avoid the presence of wrinkles and premature spots, you will protect it and keep it hydrated always.
  3. The next step is to apply a foundation that goes with your skin tone. Use the right foundation. Neither lighter nor darker than your natural skin tone. This is a basic and fundamental point so that the rest of the makeup can work. The best are those that bring luminosity to your skin and give it a satin effect.
  4. Sculpt your face with tanning powders. This technique is known as contouring. To do this, draw a 3 on your face, starting with the temples and descending below the cheekbones and then going back down to mark the line of your jaw. This technique goes very well with your skin and will look like you went to the beach recently.
  5. Use eyeshadows in earth tones. These, along with the gold ones, are the great allies to make up a brown skin, since they will be responsible for giving greater depth to your look. Reserve the golds for when you want your eyes to be the focal point of your makeup, perhaps for a special occasion.
  6. Use eyeliner. You can intensify your gaze with a black or brown eyeliner. Try to do it flush with the eyelashes above to achieve a feline and seductive look.
  7. Beware of abusing the blush. While it is true that blush is welcome, use a shade that is suitable and do it in small quantities. The ideal for brown skin is to use a peach tone or, failing that, coral color, since this will blend very well with your skin tone.
  8. When using the blush, shake the excess by tapping the brush before applying it.
  9. Finally, use nude lipstick. This is one of the best options for brown skin. However, this doesn’t mean you can’t use other shades. Light pink and brick red will come in handy.

Tips for making up brown skin

If your skin is oily, avoid liquid makeup, as this type of makeup usually has the purpose of moisturizing the skin and will therefore look even oilier.

Instead, use powdered makeup. This type of makeup works best on brown-skinned women, as it leaves them with smooth skin and a matte finish. However, avoid using translucent powders.

While it is true that these types of powders help fix makeup, they will also make your skin look much clearer than it really is. You don’t want it to look like you’re wearing a costume mask. Instead, use a first or fix makeup with a spray fixative.

Usually, spots and imperfections are more concealed in brown skin. Therefore, there is no need to make up the entire face. Apply makeup only on the most visible imperfections and on the cheekbones. Don’t clog the pores of the rest of your face. With the passage of time, your skin will thank you.

Avoid bronzer, as well as pink or dark blush, and wear coral blush, it will give a super natural and fresh touch to your tropical brown skin.

Buy and use different products that are focused on brown skin. In the cosmetics market there are different brands that aim to make brown skin stand out instantly. Consult with a professional makeup artist to know what they are and how to use them to get the most out of them.
