Darker skin tone

So far my good friend Janeta has the darkest skin tone I've attempted yet. I had watched a video about the color wheel, and which colors go better with this tone and that hair and bla bla bla... It was actually really interesting because it was true.

Here is her before. I had already applied the foundation before I remembered (or was reminded) to do the picture.

It was interesting to see how different the colors turned out on her compared to myself.

She is beautiful with or without makeup. I've always been jealous of those with darker eyelashes and brows!

What I learned:

• darker blushes can still have a brightening effect as long as the skin tone is slightly darker. The lighter shades don't show up well and look 'off'.
• I need more practice with eyeliner but am happy with this outcome. 
• Janeta is freaking rad for letting me come over with my kids as though she had nothing else to do.

 We had so much fun she even called me to do her makeup for her family pictures!
