Question

Do I wear the suggested brown eyeliner with plum eye shadow, or I do what is suggested further down the list and put a metallic eyeliner with the plum for an evening wedding?

WikiHowAnswer

Community Answer

The metallic eyeliner is preferred by looks. Plum and brown do not mix as well.

Question

I have grey-blue eyes, very pale skin and red hair with natural blonde highlights. I also look younger than I am. Any makeup ideas?

Community Answer

Don't overdo it. You'll want to outline your eyes to make them more noticeable and do some subtle eye shadow. Do some light-ish lip gloss/lipstick and possibly a bit of blush. Otherwise, I think you're fine.

Question

How to do eye makeup for brown, green, grey and hazel eyes?

Community Answer

Neutrals are a great color scheme for any eye color. Having multi-colored eyes, you could try browns or even a black smokey eye.

I have blue eyes with a dark blue ring around the iris and pale/peach skin. What eyeshadow color should I wear?

Bronze tinted nudes and pink work best, if you're feeling confident, go for red and add some sparkles!

Question

I don’t want to look phony, but feminine. I don’t like dark eye shadow or brown eye shadow. What can I do?

Community Answer

You can go without an eye shadow and compensate with mascara or eyeliner that you like. Or you can go with a blend of light pink and coral red for an eye shadow. Light brown eye shadow or shimmery white eye pencil can also look feminine.

Question

I have blue eyes, golden blonde hair and am pale. Can I use green-toned eye shadow?

Community Answer

Yes, you can. Light green can accentuate your blue eyes. Depending upon the occasion, you can also try a dark green eyeliner with another shade of green for the eye shadow.

Question

There is no description for blue eyes with silver or graying hair or hair that is part silver, part brunette. What colors would be a good choice in that instance?

Community Answer

Blue and white/silver teamed with brunette hair can be elegant. Keep the occasion and the color of your outfit in mind. Navy blue eyeliner, sea blue eye shadow and a tinge of shimmer will accentuate your hair and eyes. Or you can try chocolate brown eye shadow.

Apply black mascara, curl your lashes with an eyelash curler, or if you can afford it, invest in lash extensions and false lashes.
