MC TIP: Blue-based magenta and wine shades with subtle sparkle combat the ashy undertones of darker complexions.
MC TIP: Sheer mauve gloss looks gorgeous with peach blush and balances ruddiness in fair skin.
<<Punch up brown hair (left) with warm neutrals and bright, get-noticed jewel tones, advises celeb makeup artist Andrew Sotomayor.
>>Jet-black hair (this page) natually frames the face to make way for flattering, deeper makeup shades of berry and violet.
MC TIP: Apply a cool tone to your lids to get a pretty doe-eyed effect that's not too "done."

12. URBAN DECAY Afterglow Glide-On Cheek Tint in Score, $24
MC TIP: Use a neutral primer on lips before applying a pale-pink stain to banish redness from fair complexions.
MC TIP: Dusty rose shades give skin a feminine glow without looking muddy.
>>Redheads don't have to stick to matchy-matchy hues of crimson anymore, says Sotomayor. Instead, he recommends contrasting fiery locks with powder-pink stains for a vintage-meets-modern look. Or go bold with opaque tints of tangerine on lips and cheeks.
MC TIP: To avoid a totally monochromatic coral palette, define eyes with rich copper shadows and a chocolate liner.
MC TIP: Apricot gloss makes for a subtle glow, but choose one with a warm tint to avoid a washed-out look.
