Makeup help. eyeshadow

Question

on my eyes, i only wear mascara and eyeliner. thats it. i want to play with some colors but idk what to try out. what colors do you guys use

Answer 1

I use white or bronzey orange colors with black eyeliner and mascara. It highlights my blue eyes.

It all depends what color your eyes are.

Blue: White or bronze-orange colors

Green: Light brown

Brown: Light purple or blues

Hazel: In between brown n green

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

i like pinkz nd creamz they go with basically everything nd they make ur eyez like glow...(try putting a lil shimmer color in the corner of ur eyez it lookz real cute)

Answer 3

depends on your eye color! try a contrasting shade to your eye color, here's a little cheat sheet!

brown: jewel toned blues, soft pinks

blue: taupes, browns, rich hues

green: eggplant, gold

hazel: soft pink, eggplant

any color will look good though! just make sure to use a gold highlight shimmer on the brow-bone and inside corner of the eye no matter what color you choose. go bolder at night in comparison to your day look. gorgeous!

Answer 4

Black. Fun and flirty.. blue or purple.

Don't go for pink because it makes you look look all puffy and red!

Answer 5

well if you are just starting to wear eyeshadow start with something simple! i use some MAC eyeshadow but one of my favorites is their color and it is called Retrospeck! Its great and i have used it for a long time! Its just a really shimmery type and its sory of a really light gold! i love it! and if you want some color then MAX Factor and the duo tones they have some really cool colors and they look good and you can always find one that looks good for you! the MAC is about $15 dollars but it works great and lasts long and the MAX Factor is about $6 or 7. both are really great to have! hopefully this helpped you! (:

Answer 6

Well it really depends on your eye color. I have honey brown or dark brown, they change colors. I use golds, shimmery browns, and forest greens. (this sounds weird, but my fav is called "mildew" by urban decay). Purple can be used to play up brown eyes as well, but they are a little trickier cuz they can look like you have a black eye. If you have blue eyes, I recommend neutral colors, like peach or apricot. If you want your eyes to really pop, use blues or greens.

Answer 7

if you have blue eyes, def wear blue.

when i wear a purple shirt, i put on purple eyeshadow.

and when i weat pink, i put on a soft subtle pink.

everyday you can sport gold or skin colored eyeshadow its very pretty.

Answer 8

Answer 12

You could try some basic colors, like neutrals, such as browns and beige. Go on you tube and search for applying eyeshadow. It will show you many different ideas and also give you directions on applying it. If you want dramatic colors, such as greens, blues, violets, ext. then try some on and make sure it goes well with your complexion. There are shades that actually complement your eyes. Almay or seventeen.com has sites that help you pick the right eyeshadow for you. As for me, i like a light shimmer with neutral brown on the crease and a darker color, like brown or plum on the corner. I also put the shimmer eyeshadow on my lower lashes. Make sure you apply eyeshadow before mascara and eyeliner.  

Answer 13

I have brown eyes.  I wear browns,charcoal, or lavender depending what iI wear.

Answer 14

I have dark hair and I find that neon colours go really well with it. With fair hair I'd go for paler and more pastelly colours, but neon pink looks so good with blonde hair.

Answer 15

Green eyes are most flattered by golds and yellows.

Also great are beige and light browns.

These are all contrast colors and should help your green eyes stand out.

A lighter lipstick, or a lipstick in a tone that blends with the tone of your skin is the best choice for you. (:

Answer 16

Try this:

1) Get a sparkly champagne eyeshadow and sweep it across your lids and across your browbones, as well as on the inner corner of your eyes. (This opens your eyes up, the sparkles catch the light.)

2) Use a neutral color on your lids...

3) Try a crazier or deeper color on the crease of your eyelid. Carefully apply the color with a crease brush. I go for shades of plum and lavender because I have green eyes and I like to enhance them.

4) Use an eyeliner brush to apply eyeliner to just the outer third of your bottom lid. OR, apply it from the center of your top lid and wing it out for a Cleopatra-type look.

5) Swipe a coat of regular mascara on your upper lashes.

6) Take a volumizing mascara and apply it to just your outer lashes.

All of those things will open up and widen your eyes while giving you an opportunity to play around with color.
