Hi Canberra!

Every time I have my makeup done for a formal event by Napoleon/Chanel/Bobbi Brown, they seem to not know what colour my skin is! My face either ends up looking too dark, or very light and ashy.

So this time I’m thinking of booking an appointment with a private makeup artist. Any recommendations of people who can handle darker skin tones (specifically Indian skin) well?

Hi 2 before 10, I would high recommend to go with Sarah Bates makeup. You can contact her on http://www.sarahbatesfreelancemakeup.com/#!sarah-bates-contact/c24vq .She does a good job.

I would highly recommend to Zoe Barton at zbmakeup. She does it really well. I am sure you will love her work.

Hi 2before10, I can highly recommend Lorraine of Hi-def HMU by Lorraine, contact is via http://www.lorrainelorzano.com/ Lorraine has experience with all skin tones.
