a peachy color with a nude type of lipstick thats a little like your natural lip color it would give it that "smooth look"

Do you think I could pull off berry/ purpley lipsticks?
Dec 28, 2012

Yes berry/purpley lipstick would look really good on your skin tone

It depends on what kind of a look you are going for! You actually have a similar skin tone to me in natural light, and if you are as olive as you appear, you can get away with pretty much anything. The thing I have found with olive skin, is that while anything can flatter us, blushes have to be used lightly. We don't have yellow or pink undertones to build product over, so anything with color shows up on our skin very easily. You would easily look great in mauve, rose, pink, coral or peach blushes but I think coral/peach and rose colors would probably be easy options to work with for everyday. Check out NARS: Dolce Vita, Douceur or Outlaw. MAC: Style, Melba, Prism or Buff for references.
Lipsticks? That's a hard one for me since I have little experience with lipstick. I think MAC shy girl would look really pretty on you. Anything with pink, and peachy colors would probably look good. Too nude of a lipstick would make you look washed out though.

Oh thanks, I never knew my undertones! One day I would think yellow, one day pink and one day I'd think green ^_^ I'm not sure exactly what I am! I've tried out nars dolce vita, and it's gorgeous!! I'll definitely be trying some corals and peachy shades!
I agree.. No nude! I would look AWFUL :p

coral all the way! When I say that I mean peachy not orange. you're skintone looks neutral to more golden. so a peachy color is going to be complimentary. It will also look more natural :)

Mmm I think youl pull off berry or purple but when you think of your eyes think light and your contoure think bronze it will look absolutely gorgeous on your skin tone and of course you (:

I would say yellow is your undertone if my phones displaying that picture correctly. Perhaps a touch olive? And peaches blush by MAC is the perfect matte peachey color! It would look amazing on your skin :)

In terms of a deep berry lipstick - Odessey (sp?) by MAC is gorgeous!

If I were you I'd head to CVS and grab a bunch of lipsticks and blushes by wet n wild to try out different colors and shades, find your faves, and head to grab your favorite brands that are close to that color!

Also (sorry I keep thinking of stuff haha) Stila makes AMAZING blushes that self adjust to your skin tone! They're velvety and soft and really work - I have both (self adjusting coral and self adjusting pink) idk why no one mentions these more because they're so freaking perfect!

Courtney O.
Haha thank you so much for all the ideas! :)

I looked for and found a picture of you in natural daylight and you look olive(neutral) with some yellow. My skin is olive, but if I lean more towards yellow or pink, it's yellow because pink tones make me look washed out or ashy.

Courtney O.
Ok thank you that helps a lot!! :)

I would try Too Faced Bronzer in Chocolate its amazing, and maybe a lipcolor like Ravishing by MAC its a beautiful peachy color kinda in the nude family or for a brighter option So Chaud also by MAC love them both.

You are a deep autumn. Terracotta blush with a champagne or peach highlight for those beautiful cheeks. A cinnamon lipstick would be pretty but you probably would do better with just a gloss. The peach you have on now is nice. Beiges work too.

go with a more bronze blush and purple and Barbie pinks would look great.
