Olive Skin Makeup
“Very natural looking and the lighter shade is perfect for my light to medium olive skin tone. I apply this with the Westman Atelier powder brush and it just gives me the most natural sun kissed look”
Makeup For Olive Skin Tones
“•the pearlescent, finish is beautiful on my skin. the color seems to neutralize my light-olive skin tone nicely, but not drastically. this product pairs best with the style of makeup Isamaya does—light to medium coverage, lots of glow all over, and light to no powder. the divine finish might be my favorite thing about this product next to the shade. ”
Complexion Makeup
“My issue seems similar to the other reviews in that it appears a deep dusty rose, but it pulls full on brick orange on my skin. My complexion is a lighter olive but maybe this would look better with a tan”
Fair Complexion Makeup
“I appreciate the SPF 25; I'm not sure if it's made much of a difference in my complexion, but I also use a daily moisturizer/primer, so the foundation isn't sitting directly on my skin”
Lipstick For Olive Skin
“I use it with a damp sponge don't like how full coverage it looks on my skin with a brush. I prime and moisturize my skin very well so it blends well with my skin it does settle a bit on my fine lines but that's always”
Eyeshadow For Olive Skin
“I don’t use eyeshadow daily because it can be really tedious and time consuming”
Eyeshadow Palettes For Olive Skin
“Clear History is another miss, but may look better on deeper skin tones (I have very light olive skin with ash blonde hair) Satin Taupe is a favorite of the bunch, just below Showstopper. in order to blend out Showstopper, On the Cloud, and Satin Taupe I needed a good amount of translucent powder (I used Hi-Tea initially ha) as a base over my primer, unless I was using it wet (as a liner.) ”
Bronzers For Olive Skin
“The color also doesn't work as a bronzer on my very very olive skin (I look green in the winter lol) in the same way that deep maple doesnt; they're WAY too red and I have to use them as blush instead, but they look best on me in the summer when I'm really tan”
Olive Skin Highlighter
“It instantly hides my dark circles. I have olive colored skin and use the lightest shade from this Guerlain Illuminator”
Lip Colors For Olive Skin Tone
“Love this lip color and formula — feels like basically nothing on the lips and adds a beautiful wash of color”
