QUESTION: hi,,,
foundation i think i am ok with, i usually go for the darkest colors they have,its things like eye liner, eye shadows and blusher,, the colors that would suite my skin color as well as something that wont make my spots stand out..
thank you,
Answer Hi Patsy-
Well, I am not sure how your spots look but here are some recommendations.
You can pretty much do any eye colors: Jewel tones such as saphire blue, amethyst,Gold,Silver would all look great. Also try some neutrals such as navy or teal.
Mac makes some great vivid colors so does nars, prescriptives, and Lacome.
I would opt for a subtle blush since you do not want to draw attention to your spots opt for something like nars orgasm blush.
