Clear lip balm is always fresh on you. You will also look nice in a sheer lip gloss or shiny lipstick in pinkish-brown.

Re: What's best for your skin\eyes

Now this is helpful. I definitely agree with the colors of eyeshadow they recommend for pale skin/blue eyes. Not sure about the lip colors though. I'm not big on clear, and I find that I am able to wear other colors than just sheer pale pink
