I had really dark brown hair, pale skin, some freckles, and hazel/green eyes.What color eyeliner and eye shadow would look good on me?
OMG! The only difference is that I have dark blue eyes instead! I suggest black eyeliner for all color eyes. Purple or ivory eyeshadow would look nice for a lighter look, but if you want a darker look, go for a dark silver. I strongly suggest purple for hazel/green eyes, though.What color eyeliner and eye shadow would look good on me?
Medium to dark brown eyeliner, at night you can even go for a brown/black. If your eyes are small you don't want to use black cause it'll make them look smaller. If they're big you can get away with it. As far as shadow, you can use a light shimmery green to compliment and enhance your eye color, or go for the natural shimmery pale beige with shimmery almost white on the rim of your eye lids. This will really bring out the green of your eyes, it'll make them sparkle. The point is you don't want a color on your eye lids that will compete with your pretty eye color, just something to enhance them. If the color is pale and shimmery, many colors could work for you. You're lucky with your natural coloring.
foundation: pale mineral powder
blush: light tan/peach color powder on a large round brush. brush it starting a little under your eye and make a half circle upwards around your eye (creates the illusion of a high cheekbone)
eyeshadow/eyeliner: you can do a lot...
smokey eyeshadow with black liner.
purple/pink eyeshadow with purple liner or charcoal gray liner.
green eyeshadow with brown liner.
lips: dark lipstick with a mocha lip gloss.
some tips: for a more dramatic look, take your eyeliner and put it in the outside corner of your eye. gently, make a small line extending your eye, only upward. (think of it as drawing a small check mark at the outer tip of your eye)
when applying lip gloss, be sure to get the top bumps of your lip.
for a smoother foundation, wet your hands and squirt some liquid tinted moisturiser in your hand. whip it and then gently apply to your face. if you still want some cover up on certain areas then apply once it is dried. if your face isn't clear enough to pull it off, then gently brush on a mineral powder overtop of the mosturiser.
when applying eyeshadow, use at least three shades. one for the inner corner, one for the outer, and one for the crease. a dab of light white shimmer always looks good on the very tip of the inner corner of the eye, and just below your brow. it brightens your face.
hope i helped!
It depends on the shape of your eyes. A soft colored eye liner can create a lovely background for pale skin and large hazel/green eyes. Me, I have cat eyes and only accent the outer corners of my upper lid. If I draw a harsh line all the way across I look like I'm squinting. Different shades of shimmer browns, greens, or pale aquas should bring out your eyes. Try different colors and see what you come up with. But make sure you don't use harsh colors. They can look garish on pale skin.
Definitely not black. Try greens, purples, golds, warm colours.
burgundys and purples. try Sketch by MAC its such a cool color its matte, not shimmery or glittery but if you want a frosty color try Cranberry by MAC
black eyeliner for sure(top and bottom) and light green eyeshadow
purple colors look great with hazel/green eyes.
