Whats the best makeup for black women

Why don't you find a Mary Kay or Avon, beauty consultant. They would be able to match you up with the right shades for your complexion. Most major department stores in the malls also have beauty consultantants. If you are unsure of what shades you need or how to apply they will be more than happy to help you.

A shade of foundation that suits your skin and compact. Lip colour - you can play around here..from beige to glossy pink. Anything that goes well. Bronze blusher would be great for an evening out.

I know exactly how you feel. A few years back, I felt the same way. I have tried almost every brand of makeup and nothing does my skin better than MAC ( maccosmetics.com ). Now, I must warn you in advance that it is very expensive! So, don't just give up when you first see it. The makeup is really good for your skin, and doesn't feel heavy at all. I've been using MAC ever since and love it. If you are near a really good mall then they should have MAC store inside or MAC in a department store. You can search on the website for it. I wish you luck.
