How to select make-up products for fair skin tones

Most people with fair skin are blessed with good complexion. However, people with fair skin always face the problem of choosing the right kind of skin care products for their skin. Usually, fair skin requires more maintenance and the right colour palettes to suit the skin. Before you buy cosmetics or other skin products, ensure that they are from reputed brands such as Avon cosmetics and Body Shop.

Skin care products for fair skin

Determine your skin type Before you buy any product, you should first determine your skin type. First, identify if your skin is dry, oily, or a combination/T-Zone type. If your skin is dry, try using products that are pH-balanced, with an emollient to keep your skin moisturised all day. People with fair skin need to protect themselves from getting a suntan or being sun-burnt. As such, a good sunscreen with a higher SPF value is suggested. Oily skin Those with oily skin should use an oil-control face wash and a sunscreen with no oil or moisturisers, as any extra oil or grease can cause the skin to appear more oily, and may even cause acne break-out. Combination type skin If your skin is a combination type, then you should try using a matt base sunscreen with light moisturiser on the dry areas of your skin. In any case, people with fair skin must ensure that they do not use strong products as this may cause break-outs or skin irritation.

Make-up for fair skin tones

Fair skin, in general, has a pinkish hue or a pale yellow complexion. However, most people with fair skin are more susceptible to sun burns, allergies, freckles, or sunspots. This can be an issue when dealing with choosing the right make-up. Use the right cosmetic concealer and foundation Fair skin with blemishes needs to be concealed using the right cosmetic concealer and foundation. In addition, the colour palettes for the eyes, lips, and cheeks should be used such that they blend well with the overall complexion. For people with pinkish rosy cheeks, neutral and pale colours like peach, light pink and neutral beige blend well. Men and women with a yellowish fair skin tone can use darker shades of eye shadows and lipsticks such as reds and dark browns.
