Victoria's Secret model Adriana Lima is known for her sultry Brazilian looks. Her tanned skin, brunette hair and blue eyes are a striking combination, not to mention that amazing figure! In any case, Adriana usually maintains her signature shade of brown hair, sometimes mixing it up with sun-kissed highlights or lighter brunette locks. However, she has also experimented with going darker and has even tried a deep jet-black shade. But does it suit her? Let's compare both looks.

Earth tone makeup would work well with this hair color too but instead, Adriana has chosen a soft red lipstick for an extra vampy look.


Both colors look great on Adriana, although it goes without saying that the mocha brown looks a lot more natural. If you have a similar skin tone, consider what a difference a few shades can make to your overall look before you change your hair color.
