I've got dark skin, are there any colours that I should avoid?

The fabulous thing about dark skin is you can usually get away with wearing bright, vivid colours with your colouring. Anybody pale in colouring would look like a clown, but you girls with gorgeous dark skin, you can really afford to wear the bright pinks, the bright blues, the turquoises, whatever. But you should really steer clear from anything that contrasts completely the other way. So if you've got dark skin and colouring, don't use anything that looks white or beige or cream because the contrast will be so extreme it wont be flattering to your colouring and it will make you look like a clown. I think using anything too dark on your dark skin can actually detract from your beautiful dark skin. Again don't use any colours that are similar to your own skin tone because what's the point? They won't stand out against your dark skin and colouring. What I do suggest you use are pinks and purples and golds and bronzes, lush, exotic, sexy colours that enliven your dark complexion. Steer clear from colours like black, brown and dark grey because really they're not going to do anything for your colouring and dark skin.
