If you’ve made the switch to jet black hair, you’ve just opened up your makeup kit to make a bold statement. Jerrod Blandino, founder and creative director of Too Faced Cosmetics, told Women’s Health, “Play up the mysterious, sexy vibe of black hair by accentuating just one feature with sultry color.”

Emphasized Eyes…

This is your opportunity to try out some of the less traditional colors (golds, dark blues) of makeup you may only see on the most daring celebrities like Kim Kardashian. If you’re focusing on the eyes, the smoky eye look looks great on black haired beauties. Molly Stern, CoverGirl Celebrity Makeup Artist, recommended an amber shade in an interview with BeautyRiot.com.

Cheek Check…

Because black hair works well with bolder eye colors, keep the rest of your makeup simple to avoid creating too much color on your face. Stick to muted pinks for your cheekbones to draw out a light blush without looking too flushed. You want admirers to focus on your new hair color, not your blush!
