This book is cool. Flip the hard pages (wipeable), and you have all ethnic colors at your fingertips. Of course you will need to adjust, but it is full of basic eye, nose, lips etc. colors and carts. Im glad I bought it.

Mixing Colour,
By Phil NZ "Arty" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Color Mixing Recipes for Portraits: More than 500 Color Combinations for skin, eyes, lips & hair (Spiral-bound)
This is great value for a novice that needs help to mix skin colours. The text is kept to a minimum and the charts clear to understand.
