What makeup colors would go best with blue-grey-green eyes, fair skin and dark brown hair?

My eyes vary as to what shade they are and I have cool toned fair skin with some freckles. My hair is a medium dark brown and I'll probably have burgundy/red/purple highlights put in soon. I'm not very up on makeup and am usually a scrub but I have recruitment for my sorority coming up pretty soon and would like to look nice. I was just wondering what shades of eyeshadow, lipstick, etc would be the best for my coloring. Thanks =)What makeup colors would go best with blue-grey-green eyes, fair skin and dark brown hair?
A brown just a few shades darker than your skin tone would probably work nicely. Maybe a light gray.What makeup colors would go best with blue-grey-green eyes, fair skin and dark brown hair?
look at stars like, Lauren Graham. see how they wear their make up. Or go to make up artists (people who work at M.A.C or Sephora or Shishedo) and ask them. Report Abuse

go two different shades of bron for your eyes. lighter brown towards the inner corner and darker brown towards teh outer corner. lipstick? light pink almost natural, if you dont have any light pink just go wiht clear gloss it looks great with anything. Go with black mascara and peachy shimmery blush. that way you dont look like a clown. take your time puting it on ohter wise it will come out wrong if you rush it.
great makeup tips in this article and much more on skincare
Cool toned skin- you need to stay away from yellows and golds(peach, brown, orange, etc. ) These are warm tones and will fight your cool blue tones(blue and gold make green! bad!) Don't believe me? Put a cool shade on the inside of one forarm and a warm shade on the other. Don't look at the color you've put on- look at the skin AROUND the color. one arm will look dull and greenish grey. The other will brighter and healthy. I'll bet the better looking skin has the cool color on it! Stick with cool shades.Try a dusty pink on the lid, a plum (dusty- not too red) in the outside corner, smudged about1/3 into the crease- not all the way across or your eyes will close up. Try a dark plum, grey-blue, or dark green liner. What color you're wearing will influence what color your eyes seem. Use the liner on the upper lid. On the lower lid , use the shadow sparingly along the lash line. Apply the liner on the lower lash only about 1/3 across. Again, you don't want to close up your eye. Other shades to try besides plum would be taupe or blue or even a brown that wasn't too yellow. For blush a pink, rose , plum or coral(something more pink than peach) would all be good. Your lipstick should follow your blush. it can be bright if you like (go easy on the eyes if you play up your lips) or pale(in which case you play up the eyes). Shiny -not sparkly- is nice if your lips are a little dry. Start with a good lip balm now- try the Palmer's Cocoa butter stick-use it often, especially in the am %26amp; pm to soften. works great.
Golden tones to highlight your eyes
Well if I were you I would stick with Peachy shades of Blush, and Light shades of lilac or baby blue for your eyes neutral colors may work depending on the look you want. Light pink for your lips, if you have freckles and want to hide them a good foundation is nessecery. May I recomend something with a SPF or a bronser.
I would stick to neutral shades for your eyes, light browns and peaches--that will bring out your color(s). Stick with peach toned for blush and lipstick, too, since your skin is fair.
My colouring is the same as yours and on the occasions that I do wear any make up I wear a deep purple liner along the eye lid and a mauve colour on the lids and a golden beige on the upper lid to brow. I also use a fine make up brush to line the bottom of my eye with the mauve shadow and run a q-tip over to soften the line. The purple/mauve colour brings out the drama of green/grey eyes....also it will reflect the coloured highlights in your hair for a overall effect. I also use a brown mascara for upper lashes only..and the outer 1/2 of the bottom lashes...apply only 1 coat and go easy on it. As for blush...peach tint...very light and almost nude..more natural healthy glow on lighter skin...and for lips I use and ';invisible'; liner...from Avon...that has no colour but is awesome to stop lipstick bleeding.....and a gloss peachy lipstick. The main thing I like to emphasize is my eyes...and this also compliments the paler/cool toned skin and since most people are drawn to look at someones eyes when the talk it makes it your most outstanding feature. Experiment a week or 2 before though with any looks you would like to try and find what suits your personal taste. Good luck!!!
eyeshadow-gree,blue,light brown::: apply 2 coats of any color and white to the eyelids in a sideways motion. then put a half coat on above that other coat.





mascara-black::: put it on your eyelashes * top * going out, not up. do this 2-3 times in a row for each eye. the best way to keep from stabbing your eye is to put your hand on the bridge of your nose and apply the mascara.





eyelinerblack,mocha brown::: pull down your eyelid and gently but firmly apply the eyeliner to you eye. do this 3 times around to get a dark and perfect look.





blush-white powder::: find a color that is slightly darker then your skin tone, and apply it in a downward sideways motion -three motions a cheek.





lip gloss/lip stick-red,lavender,maroon::: before you put on the lip gloss/lip stick, be sure to put 2 coats of chapstick on or you will have chapped lips afterwards.then apply the lip gloss/lip stick two times to make sure the color shows.





this is the best way to do makeup,and it works for every one who wanted make up help tips.
Gey-Green- Blue
If I were you I'd come to the upscale store like Macy's and have them ';make'; my face. They are trained there. You will have a feel of what colors makeup to use.
Light brown, blue, or skin color eyeshadow, red lipstick, any lip gloss, and, I dont think that blush, eyeliner or eyeshowdow comes in colors.
Your features are fine so what you need are accents to make it good. Well use a good light weight foundation (brush your face when it's dry, to remove excess) then put a translucent powder for a natural look. Use a earth tone colors and make accents on your lids. For the cheeks, use orange or pink. And same color for the lip gloss. Hope I helped you.
go with natural colors stay away from green and blues
i would go with burgundy. it brings out the greenness in your eyes.
Beige,white.light gray for the eyes,raspberry or light crimson for the lips
Eyeshadows in cinnamon brown, bronzy-gold, dusky plum or deep rosy pink would look great with your eyes.





For eyeliner, try greyish-brown, deep violet, or bronze only on top lash line, and wing it out just a bit--it'll really define your eyes.





For lashes, use mascara in deep brown (black can be too harsh on fair skin). Lancome Definicils mascara lengthens incredibly.





For cheeks, try golden rose, peachy pink or light raspberry from temple to apple.





For lips, try pinky-brown (Clinique ';Tenderheart'; is great), cinnamony-pink (Clinique ';Spice Pink'; is great), or sheer raspberry.





Bare Escentuals mineral makeup has the best foundations and concealers; they make you look like you have no makeup on at all. ';Fair'; would probably be the right color for you in the foundation (sold at Sephora).





Good Luck with the sorority!
dont know im blonde
A light blue, purple, pink, or green would look pretty with fair skin and varying eye color. Put on a little brown/black mascara and use a coral color lipstick or stick to a simple lip gloss. I think that a pale pink or beige blush would make your eyes stand out as well. You could put on a little bit of powder if you would like.
