It’s one thing to be dark-skinned, it’s another thing to have a facebeat that highlights your facial features and accentuates your melanin beauty. You don’t want to risk wearing a shade of powder/foundation that is totally different from your skin tone or a lipstick that makes you look lousy, do you? We just thought these melanated makeovers could tip you on the best makeup for a melanin skin.
If you find pink or red lipstick too bold for your melanin skin color, take a cue from Nollywood actress, Beverly Naya, and try pale, earth-toned lips. This melanated makeover done by Dodos Uvieghara paired Beverly’s lip color with a matching hairdo, bold eyeliner and well-sculpted eyebrows.
If you love to look moderate while giving your face a bold look, let Mercy Johnson-Okojie’s makeover inspire you. Her well-carved brows, mild eyeshadow and bold lipstick done by Omaa Beauty is worth taking a cue from.
There is beauty in simplicity and Linda Osifo’s beautiful look by Annklair doesn’t belie this fact. A background check on this melanin goddess would reveal that most of the time, her melanated makeovers are usually simple and moderate with light-toned or nude lipsticks. You could let your black glow as you take a cue from her.
