The Best Minimalist Makeup for Every Skin Tone

Whether it’s eye shadow or blush, peachy pink hues most closely resemble your natural flush. Stick to sheer formulas for that “I woke up like this” vibe. Hint: You can even use the same tint on your eyes, lips and cheeks.

Since you have a little more color than your super-fair friends, something with a tiny bit more pigment looks the most natural. Think flushed from the wind or just back from the beach.

Colors that skew orange will give your skin a boost and ensure your features don’t get lost. As previously mentioned, stick to sheer washes for the most believable look.

A tiny bit of shimmer only enhances your natural sun-kissed glow (matte hues will look a little muddy on your bronzed complexion). Something on the warm side, like peach, will give definition where you need it without overwhelming your face.

Softer pinks might wash you out, but berries will make you look alive. Don’t shy away from something a little bright—when mixed with your skin tone, it looks more natural than you'd think.

Bronzey shimmer will give your rich skin tone a little pop of highlight without making it look too pearly. Sweep some on your cheekbones, brow bones and cupid's bow and you're good to go.
