The Ultimate Guide to Color Correcting

The basic principle behind color correcting on darker skin tones is virtually the same as it is for lighter ones; however, there are a few key shade differences to keep in mind. (Spoiler: This is important for step two!). Keep the color placements the same and simply swap out the differing shades as directed.

Color to Use: Green

Why This Works: As we said before, green cancels out any red tones that arise on your complexion, no matter what your skin tone is.

How to Use It: Similar to how you would begin with light skin tones, neutralize any redness with a dot of green on both blemishes and broken blood vessels and a few green lines on flushed cheeks.
