like eye liner eye shadow and that stuff?What colour of makeup looks really good with blue eyes?
I myself am a blue eyed girl. The best tone for us to wear to make the blue pop is either a goldish or brownish color. I always use a brown eye liner also. Combine that with the gold shadow in the summertime if you have a tan, and the brown otherwise. Your eyes will standout and look awesomely blue. I also use a little white sparkly shadow on my brow bone and inside corner of my eye to brighten up my eye. If you want your blue eyes to look more green, try using a purple eye shadow, it works everytime. Good luck!What colour of makeup looks really good with blue eyes?
Eye liner you probaly want to go with a brownish/black..eye shadow..maybe a brown..like dark colors will make it pop!
Black eye liner, and natural, light brown eye shadow. Do NOT try to match the blues - they will clash.
Smoky eye shadow - when applied appropriately - can make blue eyes pop.
black mascara or eyeliner would. Eyeliner is a little dark, so I'm not sure your mom would like that. For lip gloss, just you a clear one with no sparkles. Eyeshadow should be a light color. maybe a light brown or blue
Blues and browns all colors.

What makeup colors look good with blue eyes?
i would like to know what eye liner/ eye shadows/ mascara colors would look good with blue eyes. thanks!What makeup colors look good with blue eyes?
People Say Warm Browns and Peaches and all That. Personally I have Blue eyes and I think Black and purples Make my Eyes Pop! Black because if its black then you see the Blue eyes, that will Be the Center and they will stare at your eyes. ( Trust me it works) and Purple Because Purple and Blue do Go together and Purple is very flattering =]
Hopes this helps Goodluck!What makeup colors look good with blue eyes?
Because, choosing eye shadow can be difficult no matter what color your eyes are, here are some basic rules to help you pick your colors:
Try it out!
The first rule is to experiment. You won't know what looks best on you until you try it. Buy some inexpensive shadows in a wide range of colors and play around. When you've found a color that seems to works with your skin, hair and personal taste, then you can search within that color to find the perfect tone, hue, texture, and quality that works for you.
Don't be afraid!
Don't be bashful! Mix colors together and see what you get. If you're unsure of a color, test it on the inside center of your forearm. This will give you some idea how the color will look on your skin before you put it on your eyes. Don't test it on the back of your hand, as is usually recommended, since the skin of your hand is usually far darker than the skin of your eyelids. Once you're ready to put on the color, start with a light layer and build up in light layers until you have the darkness and color you want.
Lavender
Lavender, as well as most pale pinks and pale purples, work well for almost any eye color. They work especially well with blue eyes since they bring out the lighter tones in the eyes and make them seem bluer. Smoky Smoky eyes, if they are appropriate to the occasion, look good on anyone. For the simplest smoky eye: Line the eyes as closely as possible to the lash line with dark gray or black shadow, or a black eyeliner pencil, or a kohl pencil. Then smudge upward and outward toward the eyebrow and corner of the eye. Smudge the bottom only slightly to soften the line, but don't drag downward because smearing the dark color under your eye will make you look tired. Powder over the pencil, if you use one, with dark gray or black powder to set it and soften it further. Apply mascara and you're done.
Try some shimmer.
If you're nervous about choosing the wrong color, then don't pick a color! Try putting some body glitter, or even bronzer, above your eye for attention-getting sparkle. If you're adventuresome, and want only a little color, try silver. Don't forget the mascara, though. Nearly nude eyes will need the definition of a coat of mascara.
Go natural.
Often, the best make-up colors for our face are those we are born with. Most people have a medium shade on their lids, a darker shade in the crease extending to the eyebrow, and a pale shade just below the eyebrow on the bone. Look and see what your colors are and then play them up with colors that are slightly darker or slightly lighter. For hooded eyes apply a slightly lighter shade than your skin on the lid to make them stand out. For eyes that are very prominent, apply a darker shade than your skin on the lid. For the ultimate in natural looks, don't apply any eye shadow at all. Instead, carefully apply mascara for definition, then apply cheek color, and lip color and let your eyes sparkle on their own!
Colors to avoid:
There are several colors that seem like perfect matches for blue-eyed folk, which in reality don't work best for blue eyes. But, don't count them out completely. If they work for you, I say go for it!
Blue Blue often competes for attention with the natural blue of the eye, and so distracts from the eyes, which should be the center of attention.
Brown Brown eye shadow, although it seems the natural opposite of blue eye shadow, tends to clash with blue eyes and make them appear duller. This may be because the warm brown tones are in opposition to the cool blue tones. Instead of reinforcing the blue of the eye, the brown draws attention away from the eye.
Gold Gold clashes with blue as well, for the same reason brown does, though if you have tan skin you could possibly make it work. As an alternative, silver works well because it is a cool tone which draws out the blue, and it can add the same attention-grabbing shimmer as gold.
Good luck
Hope i could help...
Shadow: any shade of brown or gold. Almay makes a really nice bring out the blues pallette and many other brands probably do to.
Liner: Brownish shades, even really dark brown are better than black, more intense.
Mascara: Black is the best unless your really fair skinned. If it clumps use less, clumps are gross. Also there are some navy shades that are kind of cool.
Most brands are comng out with specialized products that are based on your eye color. Just go to the drugstore and look for them...even if they are too spendy or you cant buy them, you can compare the shades in them to that of other brands
For me, I use a smoky eye with golden brown eye shadow. If you put a liitle purple/eggplant color on the inner corner, it also looks good rf going out. Use very dark eye liner--jet black. It makes the blue pop.
cosmopolitian magazine said the opposite of the color wheel so your blue eyes would pop!! so like pink, purple, golds, browns, and the smokey eye look with black and grey looks awesome i do that all the time with my blue eyes!!
purples,blues,greens colors related in that family

What kind of eye makeup works with a blue dress?
I have a school event coming up and I'm wearing a blue dress. It's like a deep blue and I was wondering what kind of eye makeup I should use? Should I go with a blue that matches the colour of the dress or go with a smokey eye? Or if anyone has any other ideas?What kind of eye makeup works with a blue dress?
IT definately depends on the shade of the dress. Also, don't be too ';matchy-matchy';. The color of your eyes really changes the color of your make-up. Here are the choices:
Brown eyes: green/golds
Blue eyes: rose/brown
Green eyes: lavender/mocha
Hazel eyes: deep green/pale yellow
What kind of eye makeup works with a blue dress?
When doing your makeup for a semi-formal or formal event, you don't want to match your makeup to your dress. You want to use your eye makeup to accent it. Think of your makeup as another accessory. I've got a blue dress for my semi formal coming up next month. There are a couple things you can do.
You can do the smokey eye, that goes with just about anything. You can also use natural shades (Dark brown through white.) Those will usually go with anything. Silver would work too. If you really want your eyes to pop out, use a contrasting color such as pink, yellow or purple, if you want to play it safe. Pick a color and make sure to have a dark shade, a medium shade, and a light shade. Use the side of the applicator brush and make a thin line using the medium or light shade underneath your eye below the lashes. (Apply any eye liner or mascara before doing the eye shadow) Then, Take the medium shade and put it on the top lid, either up to the crease, or to your brow, thats more of a personal preference, and your choices of how high up to bring the line will probably change based on what color you use. Then, take the dark shade of your color choice and use a medium-thin line on the upper lid right above the lashes. Make sure to experiment a little before the big night, to make the necessary alterations.
I hope this helped :)
I wouldnt wear a blue color cause then it would match too much and might look tacky.
Silver or a smokey eye sounds great! =]
Have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i got the whole purple thing down and how is the coolest way to apply it?What is the best makeup for blue eyes?
chocolate colors!!!What is the best makeup for blue eyes?
Blue eyeshadow will bring out and draw attention to your blue eyes, and brown eyeliner and mascara will compliment them.
When it comes to the color of your eyes, the only advice I can give you is on colors that will compliment them. How you would apply makeup to draw attention to them depends on your eye shape, position of brow bone, and general facial structure.
Shades in the brown, rose and violet families are best. The warm hue of these shades contrasts with the cold tone of your blues to really make them pop. Use a shade that is darker in tone than your eye color to make your baby blues shine
white looks really good.
with a little black eyeliner.

do all purple, then where your eye goes to your nose (crease or whatever) do a white.

purple all over, and like darker purple at the ends.

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?

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.

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.
