Consider the reflectivity of the colors surrounding a mirrored vanity. When you apply makeup, you're likely to compensate for the colors being thrown on your face, whether they're strong or weak.

You may resemble a fire hydrant!" Opt for face-friendly tones of rose and coral instead of bright red.Photo by Love2DandD from Rate My Space
