This is a small color set of skin tones representing human populations from around the world.
This is a small color set of skin tones representing human populations around the world, ranging from the darkest Africans to the palest Europeans.
Kushite - Recommended for the very darkest African people, such as those of the Sudan. It is named after the kingdom of Kush, an ancient Sudanese civilization that was a rival to ancient Egypt.
Bantu - An umber shade named for the various Bantu-speaking peoples of central and southern Africa.
Egyptian - This mahogany shade is recommended for Africans with a moderately dark complexion, such as the people of ancient Egypt and some African-American and Afro-Caribbean people.
Cleopatra - Named after the Ptolemaic Queen Cleopatra VII, this is best suited for individuals of partial African ancestry.
Khoisan - A lighter African skin tone named after the Khoisan-speakers of southernmost Africa. Can also be used for tanned Central and South Americans.
(I should point out here that all the darker skin tones can also be used for South Asian, Melanesian, and Aboriginal Australian people.)
Arabian - This darker tan is the ideal skin tone to use for Middle Easterners such as Arabs and Mesopotamians, but it may also work for darker Native Americans.
Mediterranean - This tan skin tone is recommended for southern European nationalities (e.g. Spanish, Italian, and Greek), as well as Hispanics of partial Native American heritage (e.g. Mexicans).
Chinese - Use this pale yellow-brown for Northeast Asian people such as the Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans. However, it can also be used for paler Native Americans.
French - This skin tone should work for most European nationalities.
Norse - The palest of the pale, this is best used for Northern European ethnicities such as the Scandinavians, Finns, and Saami.
Blush - For blushing (on paler skin), of course!
