DO'S and DONT'S Highlight & Contour For Dark Skin WOC || Nyma Tang

[@deidralatrice3925]

Darker complexions are literally like butter. I mean, it's rare to see a blemish or imperfection. Y'all are blessed and beautiful

[@Legal.Knievel]

DEIDRA LATRICE it's just harder to see, whereas it's more prominent on fair/pale skintones. My husband has the same skintone as her and up close you can see blemishes, blackheads, hyperpigmentation, and texture. The same applies to one of my female friends, but her skintone is even deeper.

[@itsniquenique45]

DEIDRA LATRICE that's interesting. The majority of people I see with this skintone have no imperfections at all. The ones who do probably need to change their diet

[@Legal.Knievel]

itsniquenique45 their diets are just fine. Higher levels of melanin don't make you immune to blackheads, texture, hyperpigmentation, etc, they're just as likely to have skin issues as a fair skinned person, it's just harder to see.

[@itsniquenique45]

their diets aren't fine if their skin is displaying impurities and etc. in the body.

[@Legal.Knievel]

itsniquenique45 yes, they are. There are a multitude of things that can cause skin issues, including environmental issues. Their doctors and dermatologists have also said their diets are fine. Especially my husband, he eats a healthy diet and only drinks water. We live in a humid environment, which can contribute to skin pathologies.

I like how realistically done the 'don't' side was compared to other videos where they may as well have done it all with their opposite hand in the dark.

Robyn S I totally agree with you.

[@bluelight2681]

Robyn S XD TRUE

[@EmpowerGlow_N_Grow]

I agree, I saw one a week ago and it looked like she let her child do her don’t side. It was just way too exaggerated for me, but this video was a perfect example.

[@pyrogirl55]

I totally agree. I get they’re doing an over exaggeration to drive the point home but like I want to see the actual difference it makes

[@simplybeauty5895]

I really liked the way u made the DONT side look realistic because lord knows i see this ALL the time.

[@SineadMensah]

Audrey Whitfield literally all I see on instagram and on the streets

[@tee_1843]

The fact that her bad side isn't that bad scares me. Literally every girl on Instagram and KZbin does their makeup like this. I love how more natural and subtle the other side is. That's more of enhancing than masking.

[@justentertainingtv9686]

Tee _ honestly!!! But ive realise her don't side looks best for taking photos but is not so striking in person but most girls prefer the don't side

[@carolyne803]

If you want a really good example of why "masking" is a terrible technique -- watch Simply Nailogical try to follow NikkiTutorial's makeup videos. The makeup works on camera only, not irl. As soon as she zooms in it looks really cakey and cracky and uncomfortable.

[@infalliblebeautyandcosmeti6956]

I believe that the reason why her “don’t side” doesn’t look so bad is because we’ve become accustomed to seeing so many tutorials such as and it’s become the norm; even though it’s drag queenish!

[@brigittemorobise7585]

true

[@mianoonan8465]

Of all the KZbin MUAs that deserve their own makeup line you are definitely one of them! Seriously you are an actual artist girl!!

[@BKaramel]

this is the truth! I always watch videos and wonder why some people bother wearing foundation because the TRUCKLOAD of product for highlighting and contouring they use is RIDICULOUS and you can't see any foundation anywhere!! I love how on the "do" side, i could actually still see your true complexion coming through. 100 thumbs up to you girl!

[@CammyjOfficial]

BKaramel agreed

[@AllAboutAliciaa]

I'm about 3-4 shades lighter and I've realized that I've been doing my makeup on the don't side after watching this video. I've been following other Black women on KZbin do their makeup and some of them do it the same exact way. Thank you for showing me how to apply makeup correctly. I'm a beginnner so a sistah still got some learning to do.

[@kamwuzhere]

Alicia C just to let you know I'm a beginner too but makeup is really what you make it. Everyone is different. Different preferences, skin type, shade, etc. There's no "wrong" way. There are just some techniques that work better than others. I jut have a lot of fun playing around. It's like art you can wear. If you liked your "wrong" way and thought it looked good, then go for it.

[@jheath905]

Alicia C This is beautiful. This comment is what I love to see ladies do instead of being haters and trying to tare each other down for no reason. I love this comment and very much respect you for it.

[@tijohnson9493]

I'm guilty of making my highlighter blinding. 😂

[@Bubzietown]

Alicia C that’s because it’s the age of the drag queen makeup. Lot of women are forgetting about the subtlety of makeup. We don’t need to create a whole new face. We are naturally women.

[@tiffanysmith8343]

You know what's crazy? Color and lighting make all of the difference. In person, the"bad" side would actually look bad, but because she's so beautiful it didn't even look that bad on hey in the end. My bf even said he likes the brighter side more. That being said, I really believe the now natural side showcases a more natural inner glow appearance that I think most of us want. I'll definitely be talking tips from this and proving my bf wrong in person. 😉

[@jennifershafer6190]

You're such an icon. It's ridiculous that you have to mix all that for your skin tone .makeup brands need to expand shades and with different undertones as well .

[@ML-bm5oy]

Alexandra Coleman Undertones do play a part also. Most of the foundations light enough for me are either too yellow or pink.

[@jheath905]

jennifer shafer They should've been done that in my opinion. All black women don't have the same undertones like a more "lighter skin toned woman," you know what I mean. And I feel as though that the makeup brand True Match should've done it because they kind of have products for the more brownish-chocolate skin tones, but it loses in translation because of the undertones aren't matching correctly. But this is just what I've seen and from what I've heard other young ladies say.

[@boysinbikinis8067]

I learned really quick, if you want to look good you have to do it yourself. Me being a chocolate skinned it's hard to find the perfect tone bc they end up being way too light or way too dark on me. So I just figured out how to blend the darkest color with the other foundation I had and bam! My color. It is expensive having to buy two bottles of foundation every month tho.

[@dannichris87]

I used to have to but not anymore. Not for the last few years anyway. She needs better products.

[@sharleneogbonna6591]

jennifer shafer your exactly right

[@sejaa9366]

As an Arab girl I fall into the "universal" spectrum of foundation & it's very easy & accessible for me to find my shade as it SHOULD be for all skin tones. Thx for making me feel aware abt this issue. Step up ur game makeup companies smh

[@DaniellaBortone]

As a PASTY AF makeup artist, I appreciate this video so much because it educates me on how to do makeup for WOC when they sit in my makeup chair.

[@danibabe3756]

DaniellaBortone at least you're trying to accommodate your clients

[@DaniellaBortone]

Danielle Davidson Thank you! I try, I never understood why makeup artists don't accommodate everyone they possibly can especially when they're getting paid to service someone. A lot of the schools I looked into (I'm self taught but I'm always eager to learn as much as I can) don't even show you how to work on deeper skintones. Not everyone is 50 shades of white and tan.

[@JoseyBoyWonder]

That's great! I remember getting prom makeup done in high school and the artist didn't really know how to work with my skin tone. It's super nice to see people looking in to things like this! It helps us and it helps you expand your client base.

[@OmniEyeAm]

Awwwwwww... Hopefully one day you can slay my face if our paths ever cross. The fact you are learning all shades shows true commitment to your craft.

[@anac7768]

Same, except I'm not a makeup artist I'm just a makeup lover but I like to be educated in different skintones, not related to this video but it's also important for us to put pressure on makeup brands to start including darker shades no matter what out skinshade is. Good luck with your makeup career, you deserve to be successful!

Ah I so appreciate this! I studied last year and we had to work on each other during the lecture, and I had to work on someone whose skin tone was a lot lighter than yours but no where close to being what I'm used to working with. So I ended up making her skin look real ashy and I had no idea how to fix it. 🙈 but this makes it so exciting to be able to learn and play around with it. ☺ Being a redhead I'm pale af so I only know how to do make up on my skin tone, up until olive-ish? That said I wouldn't ever want to limit myself to just that. So, thank you for your amazing content! P.S sorry for the essay. I love you already X

You're darker than I am and I'm happy to hear you speak to for lack of better term the unnaturalness of over highlighting and baking when you are much darker. I can never say enough how much I love your dark chocolate tone

[@SuperKatee28]

I definitely feel you with the concealer and foundation mixing, but I have the opposite problem. I have to mix white in with everything. There's definitely a problem with companies not catering to all skin tones, but I think they should focus on making darker shades first as it's a lot easier for consumers to lighten foundation than it is to find products to darken foundation. You're so insanely beautiful by the way 💜

[@sleepygirl96]

SuperKatee28 exactly! They dont make light enough shades and if they do its pink af

[@popnpeaceprincess]

thank you for understanding that. you spoke on it perfectly. although makeup companies dont make as much makeup for super pale skin, its certainly not as bad as the fact that it’s difficult to find anything at all if u have super rich skin. hoping makeup companies can start to nail both tho

[@kiandrachillington4488]

As a black girl I understand your problems too. My friend is albino and has a red undertone , but the lightest shade in many brands is like a self Tanner on her. So they need to broaden both sides on the spectrum

[@encyclopediacosmetica8194]

NatashaJb83 theres no way to make makeup organic and anyone who sells "organic makeup" is just making a fool out of their consumers and misleading them for dollars. there are ways to make more environmtentally friendly choices but then her line would have to be crazy expensive. btw dont take this as hate. im coming from a good place. i tried to make all natural cosmetics and saw for myself that its impossible and once i educated myself i realized that the consumer is being duped. these "natural" companies are also using exageration and unproven methods to "teach" us that synthetic cosmetics are unsafe. if you want, look into it more, look for valid sources but ill be real it takes so much reading and effort.

I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm dark skin just like you and have been struggling with perfecting my makeup. I'm too fearful to walk out my house and my foundation doesn't match my skin or I look ashy so I have only been wearing it at home until recently. I apply my foundation like lotion so it won't be too much. So I squirt my Lancôme double wear in 550 suede C in my hand and rub them together then apply it to my face. I've been using la girl in expresso as a highlight and now that I saw you using dark coco I'm thinking maybe expresso is too light for my skin. Then I'd use Iman's oil blotting pressed powder in deep as an all over setting powder and lighty sweep it all over my face and finally I use MAC's prep and prime spray to even everything out. I wore my makeup like that one day at a makeup counter like that to test a product out and the lady kept saying I didn't have on makeup as she attempted to rub it off 😞 that's a good and bad thing lol

While I am not dark skinned, I have very strong yellow undertones and have a medium skin tone so both US and Asian/Korean products don't work for me. When yellow correctors came out my life was saved! I have to mix it into everything! Mixing is extra work, but worth it. Also, I recommend mixing it on a plastic/non-absorbent surface to not waste product. I've started doing this and my product used has been cut by 1/3!

WavyKush xx well that’s cause it’s the dont side. A lot of ppl use a lot. That’s why she used a lot. To show you NOT to do that lol(if your talking about the don’t side which I think you are).

[@hetalgujrathi4363]

Paola Valiente I can hold groceries with the bags under my eyes xD

[@tspopstar512]

Right dark hides all the bad stuff and only shows the beauty

[@JussKelsey]

I have a very fair complexion myself, but I love doing makeup for people outside of my daily job, and let me just say that your videos are the most helpful when it comes to doing darker complexions. I used to be scared even trying because I didn't want to offend clients by not knowing how, and also because I didn't want to make their beautiful skin look muddy and less than perfect. Thank you so much for all of the Darkest Shade videos and tutorials just like this one. You've really educated me and have helped me improve my skills. Slay on girl 💕

[@GracefullyKaren]

Beautiful ✨☺️. Yasss if they can't make it for us, we will make it.

[@tashanakingston9200]

OK not so much😂😃😃😃😃

[@MsChoriz0]

wow not gonna lie..i probably suck a makeup but I actually liked the dont side as well lol

[@rebecca0liverx]

tbh she can just slay any look easily

[@crescentmoon4434]

Khadijah C. I mean it definitely wasn't THAT horrible, I've seen people with worse, but the "do" side looked amazing, it accentuated her skin and made her look so beautiful, whereas the "don't" one lightened it a ton and didn't look at all natural.

[@gadnihasj]

Khadijah C. i also think the "don't" side looks nice. just in a not too natural way which makes it rather obvious that she's wearing makeup. and that's also good sometimes, or all the time, depending on the person.

[@MsFlamingFlamer]

Khadijah C. Same. Her don't side is better than me on my best day lol

[@CammyjOfficial]

MsFlamingFlamer same for me too. Her don't side puts my best skills to shame lol

[@carramken48]

I'm old enough to be your grandmother. Was browsing looking for a makeup tutorial for older women of color. Just clicked on your video because of the pic. You are simply adorable, and what a wonderful positive attitude! BTW, I've never commented on a video before. Keep letting that "little light shine."

[@joisephine]

Oh my goodness I'm so mesmerized by your skin texture and tone. I can't even focus on your words. Beautiful.

[@geminidiamond1212]

It’s amazing how she slays the “do’s” and “don’ts” LOVE IT!!!!😍😘❤️

[@lanadelslay4996]

i used to use ben nyes topaz until i looked into a bright mirror one day and i realized how orange and dry i looked. now i use airspun and it's a very good drugstore powder, although at first i was skeptical about using a white drugstore setting powder on my dark skin but it turned out completely different than what i thought. plus this experience gave me insight about how high end isn't always the best choice.

[@tamiaa333]

I love her voice and she's really pretty

[@MonicaTorres-un4dd]

Even though I'm not as dark as you I've learned so much more watching your videos than with light skinned KZbinrs. THANK YOU!

[@LolaSingz]

😩 She is so beautiful to the point that it makes me want to cry. She’s so adorable!! 😍

[@MayaKawaguchi]

omfg I found it about Black Opal setting powder! I ordered it because I found out blacks or dark skin people shouldnt use setting powder that lighter skin people use because it makes us look ashy or whiter in the face

[@MayaKawaguchi]

*****​ learned that the hard way lol

[@TheLifeofZaravia]

Miso_Soup!Go I just found it too !! I'm in love with it. FINALLY SETTING POWDER THAT ISN'T ASHY !!

[@Quaczar1]

Actually Laura Mercier also now makes a setting powder not only in translucent but in a darker more brown translucent as well. Also, ppl don't realize that Ben Nye makes banana powder in darker shades too! It is a bit heavy tho. The LM is much lighter weight.

[@MayaKawaguchi]

Dillyn Armani I think I heard about LM. Knew about BN but didn't like it:(

[@jaenubi6833]

Yeah. I like using Sienna to highlight instead of Topaz.

[@krystenchambers306]

U have the most beautiful skin in the world!!!

[@1986shereen]

im not darkskinned but to find my shade i have to mix concealers .really helpful tips im one of the over user of concealers😂

[@TimiSterr]

I'm here from the complete other side of the spectrum, educating myself because I'm so curious how you do your makeup and what your're looking for when buying makeup. thank you for educating all of us ❤😊

[@mseliseh1106]

Thank you so very much, Beautiful Lady! As a dark black woman, I have tried other tutorials and knew that I was not going out looking like that. I feel confident in the highlight and contour application now, thanks to your video. I just subscribed too! Blessings!

[@supertipmarker]

All I could think of when I saw you put that orange powder on was "Girl, look how fucking orange you look, girl!" In Alyssa Edwards voice 😂😂😂

[@han912]

Nyma Tang I suggest watching Rupaul's Drag Race, it's SO good! Ps. I love your videos!

[@thelightoflibratarot8980]

Coco Montrese!!!! lolol

[@cheyannecorbett279]

Im not joking bitc*

[@anaissingh2721]

Your skin is so beautiful, you don't even need makeup! But the way you do it is awesome! Xx

[@meme852369]

when the don't is half these beauty "gurus" 😂😂❤ You're stunning!

[@meganw8310]

You have such flawless skin. Mine has so many scars from acne from years ago! Also, this video is a do's and do not's for everyone because lots of people do your "bad side" as well! I love your less is more thing too, looks so much more natural!

[@mochabetty]

I pretty much look to you and Nikki Perkins for all my makeup tutorials for my dark complexion. Thank U so much for your efforts in helping us chocolate sisters get our face beat!! Wished we had this like 20 years ago, for real!!

[@ToniaAlex13]

I have seen the don't side on some dark skinned ladies like yourself and I'm wondering why are they hiding their skin colour because I there is no way in person that extra highlight is going to look natural. So I definitely like this video.

[@NoName-sp5dp]

Toni Alex theyre just following beauty gurus. i seriously think they dont know how ridiculous they look

[@Hi_Tamera]

Kufre Akpan exactly

[@rennquijano]

"Girl look at how orange you f*ing look girl" The bad side is serving some Coco Montrese S5 realness

[@esmeleader7576]

Ren Quinn yaaaaas. I was gonna comment this 😂😂

[@FlyBoiQ1]

lolz why was I just thinking this?

[@Kissy29123]

White girl stay in your lane! Why the hell are you looking at her video? Just to make rude comments?!Get a fucking life white girl..

[@isitsarai3762]

p allen your comment is disgusting and so freaking stupid. It's people like you that gives all black people a bad name. Get a life

[@kataklysm0s]

Yaaaaaaaaz

[@maitecdl]

You're such a gorgeous girl! ❤️

[@dark_is_my_tea3946]

38 seconds into the video and I already like it. I agree that we'll mix for ourselves cause I face the same problem of failing to find makeup in my shade. I'm very dark skinned, slightly darker than you. And I'm happy with my skin colour but I've been pushed to searching for other stuff that can be used as foundation, concealer and contour cause I can't find any in my shade.

[@MrsYasha1984]

this is great! I think it is so fascinating how to bring out the individual beauty of different skin tones and colouring in general. as someone with a light, greenish beige skin I have my own struggles to get make up right (through clearly very different ones of course), but it is always a pleasure to see make up so well done. I love the fact you are the mixing of foundations and concealers until they are what you want, this "suboptimal products won't stop me looking gorgeous" attitude behind it.

[@sissykuey917]

Have you tried L.A Girls Pro- concealer in mahogany??

[@artsygal112]

How do you contour your nose? Cause that's what I struggle with. My nose is wider and broader than the KZbinrs I see that do contour and the technique does not work for me.

[@lolayah1633]

artsygal112 acceptance is the biggest contour

[@summer8291]

Don't.

[@cap4life1]

Surgery

[@shamarab4632]

Or just accept your nose. I don't understand why everyone wants a slim nose.

[@LiseGood]

Accept those Jackson 5 nostrils

[@hellowhitepeople]

This channel is important

[@tysheouajohnson1868]

I've been wondering all this time why my makeup been looking all jacked up and somebody was finally nice enough to make a video on it thank you

[@Kloe-1204]

I love your account because I’m starting my career as a freelance makeup artist and I want to work on all different colours and types of skin. And I have white dry skin so I’ve learnt to work on myself and lighter skin but I love watching your Channel and learning about how to work on darker skin. Also I love finding new products that I can use on darker skin. Xx

[@jacquelynpalacio6281]

goodness, you have the smoothest darkest near blue skin. you look like the universe, star matter. mother nature. The shade of your skin is mesmerizing. beautiful young lady.
