Colors like Orange, Mustard, Pink, Red and Blue tones work best for you.

Make-Up
Colors to go with
Foundation: Since foundation is the base on which you will build your entire look, it is important that it should perfectly match to your skin tone. Foundations generally have either a blue-toned or a golden base, with variations that flatter a wide group of faces falling in the warm and cool ranges.
For a medium skin tone ranging from olive to tanned skin ,choose foundation with a yellow-base that matches closest.
Powder: Opt for loose powder that you can apply evenly on the face.Designed to set the make-up and control excess shine, powder will give your face a perfectly made-up look.
Choose powder that has yellow-base undertones.
Blush: For olive to yellow skin tones, choose blushes in copper, almond, and warm brown shades.Tanned skin often looks best on warm colors like peach, coral, apricot, and orange.
Lipstick: Choosing lipstick color is the most difficult. Before you choose any shade, it is important to first examine a tester version of the lipsticks on a sheet of white paper to discover their dominant color.
Brown, warm red, or very pale, looks excellent on yellow skin. While tanned skin looks gorgeous by a variety of true pinks.
Eye Shadow: Earthy hues add dimension to the eyes.Scarlet red, earthy brown and olive green are good choices for eye-shadow.
