Eye Color Shadow

There's a real order for choosing eyeshadow colors. First, choose from a range of colors that complement your eye color. Then, make sure these match your skin tones and hair color. Lastly, check that the eye shadow goes with your clothes.

When you choose colors to complement your green eyes, remember that the aim is to make your eyes stand out. So, choosing a shade of green that's the same as your eyes is a definite no. You want to pick colors that contrast your green eyes.

The greatest contrasts to green are colors that come from the opposite spectrum: the opposite side of the color wheel.

Good contrasting colors are deep purples and wines. If your eye color is a lighter green or lime, try eyeshadow that's got lighter pink and purple tones. If your eyes have more blue-green or emerald tones you could experiment with plum, violet, and blue purples.

Yellow is next to green on the color chart, making it a complementary rather than a contrasting color. However gold eyeshadow can look magnificent with green eyes.

Once you've found a range of eyeshadow colors that complement and contrast your green eyes, you'll need to make sure they go with your skin tones.

Natural blonds usually have lighter complexion. If this is you, try lighter shades of apricots, purples and plums. If you're stuck, sometimes you can get away with using a green that's at least two or three shades different from your eye color.

So you could use khaki or forest greens. As long as these are a different enough shade of green to your eyes. Otherwise, the eyeshadow will simply blend with your eyes, making them recede. Not the aim of eyeshadow at all!

The best thing when you're looking for a new color palette is to try different colors (even with samples at a makeup store) and see what works.

One look that never goes out of fashion is the smokey eye. For a natural blond with a fair complexion you want to keep this look subtle. This can even be achieved using more grays and browns than strong blacks. Black can sometimes be too strong a contrast for fair skin and blond hair to take.

Eyeshadow Looks

For an evening look, you can try a shimmery eyeshadow with a bit of sparkle. Irridescent eyeshadows can draw attention to your eyes and catch the light for an extra bit of glamour.

If you have fine wrinkles around your eyes (a common thing as you age) it's best to stay with a matte eyeshadow. Shimmery eyeshadow will actually accentuate wrinkles and creases in the skin around your eyes.

When you're applying eyeshadow, the better you blend it in, the more natural it will look. You'll know when you've picked the right colors when your green eyes 'pop.' This means the green color shines out strongly and your eyes really look like they have their own special glow.

What color eye-shadow should I wear with my orange prom dress?

I have a bright orange prom dress that poofs out at the end. It has tiny blue and orange beeds on it. I have a red hair, and I'm light-skinned. I am thinking about getting a spray-tan that is just one shade darker than my skin tone for my dress. I am not sure what color eye shadow to wear. I like the "smokey-eye" look, but I'm not sure what colors. Do you have any ideas?

Wear a gold shimmery base with a brown frosty espresso in your crease(frosty dark brown not black). If dark brown is a little to deep for your taste try a coppery brown instead. Use a dark brown mascara and dark brown liner. Apply a dark brown liquid on top of the eye liner. This will prolong your wear and give you more of an evening look. Use a bronzer as a blush. For lip color fill in your entire lips with a lip liner in a coral or warm shade (this will stain your lips and keep your lips colored for the night) apply a matching lipstick over the lip liner. apply a shimmer lip gloss to the center of your bottom lip.(merle norman sells lip pencil plus it has liner on one side and lipstick on the other try coral rust or peach brandy. There small and easy to take along). Most important have a great night!
