    You can wear most colors but avoid bright greens and blues. Try shades of gray and silver or use a monochromatic purple palette.

    If your eyes are mostly green, you can definitely use these tips. Since hazel eyes can change colors depending on what you're wearing, you can make them look more green by wearing green colors and using green eye makeup.
