Know Your Tone
There are a lot of different undertones in ivory skin. If your skin has a hint of pink, peach, blue, or yellow, you should know what undertones you have so you can find the right foundation and make your skin look a little warmer. This is one of the best tips for putting on makeup for ivory skin!
Warmer Colours
You want to find a warmer shade that will make your skin look less pale, no matter what colour it is. For instance, my ivory skin has some brown undertones, so I usually use a little bit of light bronzer and just a dusting to add some warmth.
Shimmery Pigments
Girls, the best thing about having ivory skin is that you can really hold on to your shimmer pigments. It’s important to shine, whether you’re putting some shimmer on your eyelids or just along your cheeks. Shimmery pigments will be your best friends!
Concealer in cream
If you have ivory skin, you should also buy cream concealer. Because your skin is so light, any flaws will usually be easy to see. So the best way to hide any flaws you have is to use a cream concealer instead of a powder.
“Looking glossy isn’t always the best way to enhance your beauty.” More women are now interested in a finish that doesn’t shine. You can also get a perfect, soft glow with the right tools and methods. These amazing matte makeup tutorials will help you learn how to master this trend. “Improve your natural skin tone without the extra flash.”
Find out what colour your blush is
You can find out what colour blush looks best on you by pinching your cheeks. Do that, and then just pick the right blush colour for you! I did that and learnt that a coral blush would look great on my ivory skin!
Moisturiser with colour
Your skin is so light that it can be very easy for you to look like you have “caked on” makeup. A tinted moisturiser will get rid of that completely! With just a little bit of this moisturiser, you’ll see how beautiful and light your skin looks and feels. Maybelline’s BB cream works great on my skin! Just one swipe on my forehead, chin, and cheeks is all I need!
Lighter Eye Shadow
Lastly, it’s very important to play up your eyes, but you should use a lighter eye shadow, especially during the day. For a night out, go for a deeper smoky eye, but make the rest of your face less bright. I like to use shimmery and sparkly pink eye shadow a lot to make my green eyes stand out.
