    Expert Answer
    A big part of that is focusing on what colors you put near your face. The colors that you put near your face can either brighten your skin and bring your eyes out more or detract from your skin, making you look really sallow. Depending on your skin tone, they can either bring out pink or yellow undertones, neither of which are super attractive. If you're going to go for minimal or no makeup, colors that flatter your skin and really bring out your skin and your eyes the best.
