I'm not dark, but the MA's that helped me on a couple of occasion's were. One had on Going Bananas as a highlight, and it was so gorgeous.(unfortunately it barely showed up on me). The other ma was wearing Whistle eyeshadow from the barbie collection as a highlight. This one didn't show up on me either, but it looked great on dark skin.
I'm also a big fan of bright shades of eyeshadow on Woc. They can rock them effortlessly like no one else can.
