11 Makeup Tricks for Dark Skin (4 of 6)

Layer your highlights

If you are looking to improve your highlight game, go with layers. Some of the best makeup experts recommend doing three layers of highlight on darker skin. This will help you avoid looking too flat.

Keep in mind that our faces have different tones throughout

We all want even skin, but most of us have a variation of pigment on different areas of our face. The recommendation to remedy this is to choose foundation based on the center of the face. This is usually the lightest part of the face, and making your choice based on that will ensure you can blend, highlight and conceal easier.
