Maybe you could check out what Maria Carey and J. Lo. wear if they have the medium colored face you're talking about.\n\nJust a thought.  Good luck.

My mom works for Elizabeth Arden and she is also dark skinned. She usually uses bronzing powder or cream cover-up. Sometimes the cover-up can get heavy so I would suggest using bronzer or some type of concealer.

It depends on the color of your skin. If your dark then something with at least SPF 15. If your medium, from SPF 15-30 and if your fair anything with SPF 45 and above. Since I'm very light i use SPF 65-70 or what ever the highest that i can find. Any brand will work because they all have the sun blocking ingredient

Rose or a Pink lens are the best to get.\nThey will increasa the contrast of the shadows so you can see everything. These lenses are also good for flat light days

I dont agree with Mimi, I found the No7 Tinted Moisturiser came out really blotchy.\n\nThe best ones I have used (and still do) are Oil of Olay, and Virgin Vie.  They both go on really well and are not to dark, and feel really light on your skin.

As far as skin goes: \n\nTry the Mary Kay skin care line with customized skin care products for acne. The best thing to with your skin is always to keep it clean as well as treating breakouts. This helps prevent breakouts. \n\nThere are five steps to basic skin care:  \n1. Cleanse\n2. Exfoliate\n3. Tone/Freshen\n4. Moisturize\n5. Protect\n\nThe Mary Kay 3 in 1 cleanser can do the first three steps in one. The fifth step is protect. You want to use an oil free foundation which our formulas for dry normal combo and oily skin are all oil free. When your skin is protected with foundation you can wash off the impurities that your skin catches in the air. The foundation catches the irritants and impurities instead of them getting into your pores causing further breakouts. Mary Kay is satisfaction guaranteed. So if you try it and it doesnt work for you you can get different products or your money back. \n\nAlso it is so important that when you are using skin care you use one line be it Mary Kay or Avon or a Walmart brand. They are formulated to work with one another. Mixing products not designed to work together can cause reactions in some people. ;) \n\nTo even out skin tone you of course need to keep your skin exfoliated but also use a solution like our day and night solution.  The day solution has SPF 25 in it and the Night Solution has Vitamin A and E and more in them.  These collagen inducing products help to tighten and firm the skin as well as even out tone.  You can add in our Microdermabrasion once or twice a week to totally exfoliate and remove dead skin.  The second step of our microderm set will return your skin to its proper PH balance so you will not be rough or dry afterwards.  \n\nI reccomend using products as follows but all skin care must be customized for an individual.\n\nTimewise 3 in 1 Cleanser (customized for skin type)\nTimewise Day Solution (at night use Night Solution)\nTimewise Moisturizer (customized for skin type)\nTimewise Firming Eye cream\nAdditional moisturizers if needed(intense for dry spots etc)\nFoundation (customized for skin type and shade)  \nColor products (use all oil free and non-comedogenic)\n\nHope this was helpful!!\n\nMeganHill@MaryKay.com if you need anything else\nwww.MaryKay.com/MeganHill to check out the line\n\nMegan

be thankful for your complexion. if you want to lighten it up just wear light colored clothings and less makeups. and yes, shine through your smiles and people will love you for who you are and not your color.

Try Halo by Designer Skin. It has bronzer and a little SPF in it. Also, start out very slow...6 or 7 min your first time and gradually increase in two minute increments!\nAlso, your face tends to burn more than your body, so try a lotion specifically for faces such as Amazing Face by Designer Skin. \nAfter you tan, use a good moisturizer such as Angel. It really will help!\nwww.lewiestanning.com

go to a beauty supply store and buy a toner to tone the orange down.  The blue or purple toner will counter react with the orange and change it to a pretty shade.

Microdermabrasion and skin lighteners.  If you can't afford microdermabrasion, try mixing some baking soda with some gentle cleanser (like generic cetaphil) and scrubbing each section of your face for 10-30 seconds at a time.  Follow with a light oil free moisurizer, and if it's daytime, use an oil-free sunscreen made for faces.  \n\nTri-luma is one of the most common skin spot fader out there, but it's only available via prescription and requires a derm or dr visit.  However, I know that my derm has free samples available, so that may be an option.  Otherwise, something containing hydroquinone may be helpful.  \n\nGood luck to you.  : )

Try Dermablend.  I hear it's a PHENOMENAL cover-up to even out pigment.

You need a cream with hydroquinone.  Most OTC brands (like Porcelana) are 2%.  Try that first; if it doesn't work, there are stronger prescription-strength creams available.  You *must* stay out of the sun while using this; it can turn your skin blue or black.\n\nTo the poster below:  Some skin conditions leave areas of darker pigmentation.  Melasma, the "mask of pregnancy" is one of them.  It can be quite noticeable on a light-skinned caucasian, and the hydroquinone creams can lighten the discolorations *without* damaging the skin.
