The Insider Summary:

• The color of makeup you choose to wear should be based on your skin tone and eye color.
• We talked to celebrity makeup artist Lori Hamlin to see what shades work best for what coloring.
• The cardinal rule is to make sure your blush and lipstick have the same undertone.

Makeup comes in so many different colors, it can be hard to know what shade will look best on you.

We asked professional makeup artist Lori Hamlin - who's worked with celebs like Connie Britton and Olivia Newton John - about the best shades of eye shadow, lipstick, and blush to wear depending on your eye color and skin tone.

Hamlin says the biggest rule to follow is to keep the lip and cheek color the same undertone. So if your lipstick has a blue undertone, your lipstick should as well.

Take a look at the graphic below to see what makeup colors will give you the best look.
