My lovely D has those eyes and she is fabulous in greens, golds, browns, and bronzes. I think you've got a great deal of versatility there!

Tutorials are useful for people of every color and splitting them up in two sections of the boards sounds like it would cause more problems than solve them. It could cause tutorials to be missed that would otherwise help a lot more people in the main Tutorials subsection of the forums. You would also get far more feedback in the main Tutorials forum as well--Specktra.net doesn't advocate non-constructive criticism, so there's no need to worry about that.

And what about the tutorials posted by women of color that are already in that section? It's not like they'd be moved, and so you'd have tutorials all over the place instead of organized all in one area.

Just my 2 cents, here.


I fully concur!

Is anyone still looking for a fresh faced or dewy look? I tried looking in the tutorials and didn't see any for darker skin tones. I can try to make one, but I would also be interested in seeing what other people have done too.

I myself am a huge fan of the Porn star look(smokey eyes nude full lips etc) and I have noticed it is very difficult to find a tut for this particular look especially for Dark black chicks. I also love the glammed up looks that I have spent an eternity perfecting (Playboy style makeup, 30's looks you get the point) I was wondering are there any request?.... Once again I work for Mac and own My own Cosmetic Biz so I know what a thing or two......I would like to hear your idea's the challenging the better

Preferably with pinks and browns. I want to look all rosey and healthy.

I'd love to see a tutorial on how to to navigate color (and being of color -- with small eyes behind glasses. (multiple issues, I know!) It seems I just keep looking like I've done nothing at all.

^^Me too! Whenever I wear red lips, it seems it's always with eyes made up with either Naked or Provence pigments, black liner and mascara. I would like to see other eye interpretations, i.e., different shadow looks.

I just posted this as a tutorial. It has bold natural eyes (w/o any eyeshadow with a description of "peach-light neutral-with light neutral skintone reflects"), and there are two versions of the lips. There is neutral, and there is red. It's more of a vamp red.

Have you tried NARS Honululu Honey? If your lips are quite red like mine, the yellow undertones in this lipstick help neutralize the red, giving you a very nude lip.

How about a tut on mauves?
