7 Makeup Tricks for Pale Skin …

By Heather 15 days ago

makeup Tricks for pale skin can be difficult to find. When you have pale skin, you don’t want to hide it, but you also don’t want to lay off all the makeup. I have an alabaster tone and it took me forever to find makeup tricks that really worked well with my pale skin. Below, I’ve compiled the top 7 makeup tricks for all of us pale skinned chicks out there!

1. Soft Colored Lips

You know how tanned or olive skin looks great with crimson lips? We don’t ladies, so lay off the harsh and bold colored lips and go with sandy pinks, rosy pinks and soft apricots. Trust me, this is going to make your entire face look more beautiful and will really bring out those beautiful lips you have!

I actually really, really disagree with #1, the soft colored lips suggestion. As a fair-complexioned lady (with cool undertones) and auburn hair, I find that often soft colored lips only achieve a demure, “pretty” look. ... See more This fall I switched to a bold red, Bite’s Tanine shade, and received a ton of compliments and definitely get more side-eyes from men on the street. It’s a striking look that demands the wearer have the confidence to pull it off and the moxy to show off. I find the palette that I pull together with this shade (soft pink on the apple of my cheeks, a dark brown eye liner) is striking and colorful and vibrant, just what’s needed for the dead of winter.

#2 and #6 contradict each other (cool eyeshadows, warm eyeshadows)…lol Other than that, I like this article. Being fair-skinned, I tend to stick with peachy blushes by MAC, soft lip colours and cool eyeshadows (NAKED2 ... See more Palette from Urban Decay is the best out there for pale girls, I’m telling you!)

  YES the Urban Decay Naked2 is fabulous for cool toned fair girls. I have both Naked and Naked2, and the latter is definitely better for my undertones.
