Many are in a constant battle with trying to match their makeup with their perfect outfit. From eye color to skin tone, from bone structure to even the time of year – you’d be surprised with the abundance of options and comparing factors. Unfortunately, every shade does not work for everybody. But there’s something else that must be considered when choosing the right makeup; that is hair color!
From Blonde to Brown, from Black to Red, even multi-colored – there are so many options available, but some work specifically better with certain hair colors.

1. Redheads
Redheads apparently have more fun. Not only is their hair vibrant, but so is their makeup. Neutral makeup shades are better so that there’s no competition with the hair and makeup. However, red’s and violet’s and some orange or gold tones are known to make a hit. If you follow @loveitlouisa on IG, you’ll get plenty of ideas.
2. Brunettes
For Brown colored hair, a more natural look is always admirable. Neutral colors appear to be more complimenting and genuinely promote any complexion its paired with. So if this is your hair color, you should consider more bronze, peach, and neutral colors for your eyes. Gold can even be complimentary, depending on the deepness of the shade. For examples on achieving this natural look, check out @nikki_makeup on Instagram.
3. Blondes
If you’re Blonde then you’ll definitely appreciate grays, plums, and pastels. Deep shades can give a dramatic effect. If you want something a bit more “Broadway” then you can appreciate shimmers of champagne and taupe. They always add a little glow that appears more natural and makes you stand out, even when you’re not trying. For the lips, a good red or fuchsia will suffice. Check out examples @makeupvibes.ig via Instagram.
4. Black Haired
Black is one of the favorites in hair color. Some say it makes you look thinner or younger. But if you choose to pair your black hair with bold colors, you’re sure to hit a home run! Colored eyeliners, Black mascara, and a soft pink lip color will always do the trick. Scroll the IG page @bby.ruthh to find out more options!
