Katy Perry. Emma Stone. Madonna. Nicole Kidman. Taylor Swift. They are some examples of beautiful celebrities who have pale white skin. To be able to look beautiful with this type of skin, the first thing you have to do is forget the notion that having pale white skin is a drawback. Pale white skin can actually make you look more classic, stand out, and unique. If you want to know how to look beautiful with pale skin, the thing you need to pay attention to is the use of the right makeup and clothes to add to your beauty.
Step
Part 1 of 2: Using the Right Makeup
Step 1. Use eye-shadow with a neutral color
It is important that you choose the right eye-shadow color regardless of your eye color. Your pale skin tone can be likened to a blank canvas: any color can stand out against your light skin tone. Unlike people with dark skin who can easily choose light colors for their eye-shadow, people with pale skin should consider using neutral colors more. Instead of using flashy colors, try to choose a more muted color. Neutral colors, such as brown and mauve, will work for you.
- Remember, women with light skin only need light makeup. Makeup can easily stand out on light skin tones, so you only need a few neutrals to look great.
- Avoid using bright blues, yellows, and light browns, or your face will be as pale as its natural color.
Step 2. Choose the right eyeliner
Eyeliner with brown and gray tones will work very well on pale skin tones, especially brown tones. Brown eyeliner will give your eyes a bold look, but not as sharp as black, which can create a stark contrast between skin tone and makeup.
- However, medium black eyeliner can look pretty on pale skinned people. Instead of circling your eyelids with black eyeliner, try to give a thin line at the top corner of the eye. Not just for people with light skin tones, circling your entire eye with a black line can make your eyes appear small, regardless of skin tone. You can try Taylor Swift's cat eyes model to make your eyes look bigger.
- You can also use your makeup brush to blend out the eyeliner, so the color blends in with your skin and reduces the contrast.
Step 3. Apply mascara with a dark color
Dark mascara, or even black mascara, can sharpen and highlight your eyes if you have pale skin. Avoid using mascara with a light brown, plum purple, or blue color, instead use black or the darkest color you can find. Dark colors can help your eyelashes and the corners of your eyes stand out against your pale white skin. You can also use mascara that thickens your eyelashes to make your eyes stand out even more.
- Consider trying brown mascara if you have light hair and you want to create a more natural look.
- If you prefer colorful mascara, try purple mascara if your eyes (or contact lenses) are blue, green, or hazel, and blue or green if your eyes are brown.
Step 4. Make sure your foundation matches your skin tone
For all skin types, a foundation that doesn't match your skin tone won't look good, especially if you have pale skin. A shade that shifts slightly from your skin tone will look unflattering or even make your skin orange. Don't be shy about choosing porcelain colors or bright angel shades. These colors are more suitable and can make your face glow naturally compared to dark colors.
- Choose a liquid foundation instead of a powder foundation, because on a pale face, the powder will appear to clump more easily. However, if you like to use powder foundation, only use it occasionally.
- Don't try to fake your skin tone. Trying to make your skin darker by choosing a dark foundation can make you look silly.
Step 5. Use bronzer and blush sparingly
Bronzer should be used as needed and not excessive. Use a small amount of bright bronzer under your cheekbones and under your chin to make your face look thinner. Using too much bronzer can make your face look dirty. Also apply blush to your cheekbones, nose, and the tip of your chin to make your nose look sharp and your chin to look pointed. A little bit of pink would be great on your skin.
Whatever you use, be it bronzer or blush, make sure you blend and blend it smoothly
Step 6. Consider using concealer
When eye bags and pimples (which are more obvious on fair skin) can't be removed, you can cover them with concealer. In addition, use it to cover skin damage caused by the sun and acne. However, don't worry about the spots on your skin. You will look cute by keeping it!
However, if you don't have any blemishes or pimples to cover, you don't need to use concealer
Step 7. Use lip gloss or lipstick with a light color
Dark lipstick can make you look like a vampire. Lipstick with a light pink or peach color will be very suitable for you to use for formal or casual events. Red lipstick is a special exception for you. Red lipstick would be great for light skin tones if used on important occasions – imagine how gorgeous Taylor Swift would be with her pale skin with bright red lipstick.
- Alternatively, you can also try berry lipstick or lip gloss as they also look great on pale skin.
- Orange or brown lipstick and lip gloss generally don't look very appealing on pale skinned people.
- You can also use a lip liner to accentuate the shape of your lips.
Part 2 of 2: Adjusting Hair and Clothes
Step 1. Maintain natural hair color
Pale skin (depending on the tone) goes well with a variety of hair colors. If you're not sure what hair color will work best for your skin, stick to your natural hair color. Most likely, the color is the most suitable for your skin.
Very dark hair color or even black can make pale skin look stunning and classic
Step 2. Wear a color that matches your skin tone
There are a number of factors such as skin tone, hair color, and eye color that determine the color of clothing that will suit you best. However, the most influential factor is the natural tone of the skin. If you have a cool skin tone, try wearing lavender or gray. Meanwhile, if your skin tone is warmer, choose colors like beige, coral, and olive. If your skin tone is neutral, choose colors like red and white.
- If you have red hair, avoid choosing clothes that match your hair color (such as red, pink, or orange). Instead, choose colors that are opposite to your hair like green, blue, and purple.
- Pastel colors are generally good with pale skin.
- Be careful with certain shades of yellow because it can make you look like you're sick.
Step 3. Wear stockings to beautify the legs
Stockings can help even out the skin tone of the legs as well as beautify your appearance. You can choose light colored stockings for a natural look.
In sunny weather and/or more casual events, you may not need to wear stockings. Reveal the skin of your feet by applying a thick, shiny moisturizer beforehand
Step 4. Treat the hair on your body
Make sure you pay attention to the hair on the parts of your body. Light skin makes hair more visible, especially if the hair on your body is dark. Therefore, pay attention to the growth of your hair, especially if you have hair that connects the eyebrows or even a mustache. You may consider waxing or plucking the unkempt hair on your face.
You don't have to worry if you have naturally blonde hair. Natural blonde hair blends in perfectly with pale skin and doesn't require as much grooming as dark hair on light skin
Step 5. Accept your beauty
Most people think that tanned skin is stunning, whereas pale skin types are simply beautiful. Realize that having a different view from most people's perspective is the first step to achieving your unique beauty and gaining confidence! Pale white skin makes you look classic and have a timeless beauty. Instead of trying to look tan or be something you're not, try to maximize the beauty you already have to show others.
Be proud of your appearance and maximize it. Don't let other people make you feel inferior with your pale white skin. Learn to love your beautiful and unique appearance
Tips
- When choosing a foundation color, look for the words porcelain, angel, fair, and bright.
- Try the tester available before buying foundation. You'll be wasting your money if you buy a foundation that makes your skin look orange.

- Choose bronzer and blusher with bright colors.
- Be sure to pay close attention to the hair on your body when shaving.
- Brown, red, and blonde hair will look stunning with fair skin.
- Dark eye-shadow is only used for formal events at night. However, avoid using colors that are too dark.
- Use a natural moisturizer that can color your skin to slightly darken your skin.
- Don't use waterproof mascara! Waterproof mascara or waterproof mascara can make your eyelashes fall out! Before using regular mascara, curl your lashes first. Then add mascara! That way, your eyelashes will look beautiful.
Warning
- Cover your eye bags. Purple eye bags will be very clearly visible on your pale white skin.
- Don't use eyeliner around the entire eye! Your eyes will appear smaller.

- Spray tanning can make your skin look unnatural. Sun tanning can also cause health problems and harmful effects on the skin that will be felt as you get older.
- If you have blonde hair that matches your skin, that doesn't mean you don't need to take care of it!
- For red hair, stay away from clothes with red, orange, and pink colors.
