    I've been scouring the web for makeup inspiration tonight, looking at celeb's red carpet looks from the past few years.

    But believe it or not, I'm having a hard time finding celebs with the same coloring as mine. Most of the women with dark brown hair like mine are much more tan than I am, or have blue or green eyes.

    Can you help me think of some celebs with my coloring? I'd really appreciate it! And post pics, if you like. :)

    Thanks!

    Natalie Portman? http://gossip.whyfame.com/files/2009/09/natalie-portman.jpg

     

    Ginnifer Goodwin? http://thebosh.com/upload/2009/03/10/ginnifer_goodwin_getting_cozy_with_justin_long/Ginnifer%20Goodwin.jpg

     

    How light-skinned are you talking, in case those celebs are still too dark-skinned to be a suitable comparison?  I'm also light-skinned (NEVER tan, and tend to "glow in the dark", despite the fact that I have an olive-ish pigment thanks to the Italian in me) with dark hair and brown eyes!  Shout-out to this combo. :P

    @vegan - that sounds just like me. I've got olive skin but it's very pale. Here's a photo of me:

    It's blurry, but you can get the idea.

    @egb - good call on Anne Hathaway. I forgot about her. And thanks to the rest of you for your suggestions! Keep 'em coming!

    Ok, the good pic is not my favorite of Penelope Cruz (she has had better makeup than this done), but I wanted you to look at the before/after... it's amazing what we can do with that olive skintone.. look for other pics of her.

    OMG...what an unflattering image of Tina Fey! I thought it was of an actress in her late sixties at first!!!

     

    danadelphia, we have REALLY similar coloring.  I don't wear much makeup so I don't have many suggestions off the top of my head but I will definitely keep my eye out for makeup inspiration pictures and will report back when I find some!

    Looks like most of these ladies are going with pink/peach blush, neutral eyeshadow, thin black/brown eyeliner on top, nude-ish lips.

    @shannon- haha ya! when we were doing the doppelganger game here on wb, but never in real life. That's what gave me the idea to look at her make-up pics b/c we have similar coloring :)

    I'm very white, dark brown/black hair and brown eyes. But since I am Ojibwe and Euro-American, I am used to no one looking like me. Haha..
