What colours of eye makeup should I be wearing?

I have blonde hair, and dark blue eyes. I find that black liner makes my eyes look smaller, so usually I wear purple liner, dark purple shadow and black mascara.


I'd like like to make my eyes pop, what colours/products should I be using?





ThanksWhat colours of eye makeup should I be wearing?
Blue eyes stand out with browns and coral shades. Black is too harsh. Almay has a new line out called ';intense i-color';. It's so cute, they have specific colors for every eye color. They have shadow,liner, %26amp; mascara, all coordinated to match your eyecolor. check it out.What colours of eye makeup should I be wearing?
use a light gray or light pink shadow. skip the liner and just use the black or brown mascara and shadow
Always go for opposites to make your eyes pop (think complementary colors on the color wheel). Try some shimmery browns, reddish browns, and greens.
since u have dark eyes i'd suggest using like a violet eyeshadow or maybe a dark pink if u really want them 2 POP!! LOL. and that violet eyeshadow would look good with that purple eyeliner u have
use light oranges and light blues. it sounds stupid, but it does work.
you could try a shade of silver light pink or light blue and if you go to places that sell loads of makeup you will find different colours of liner . But you should try white or even light blue!!!
Go for a silver eyeshadow above the eye, make it a thin line.. Then use a blue eyeliner over that.. And on your eye lid use some light colour, like golden or even white.. Cuz light colours make the eyes look bigger.. Use mascara lol, don't forget that one!!
Like clothing, eyeshadow colors have their seasons...certain colors for fall, spring, summer and winter. Just crack open magazines and keep up with the times.
White eyeliner makes eyes appear bigger, for the eyeshadow try a soft pink.
Using a light vanilla, apply over your lid, through your crease and extend to your brow line. Now use a soft brown (light) and apply to the outer 1/3 of your eye. Blend well. Now take a chocolate brown and apply to the crease of your eye, blending well. Apply chocolate liner to your upper lids and 1-2 coats of black/brown mascara.
Bluegreen!
Blue-eyed blondes look especially good in Grey's and, instead of using black liner, mix some brown and black together to tone down the black. You can also use a mixing medium (you can get this at Sephora or MAC stores) and use your darkest grey color as a liner. Black is just a little too harsh for you.





Dark Navy is another great color for you and, assuming your eyes are not deepset, this would create a lovely smokey eye look for a blonde blue eye.





Stila shadows have lots of greys as do Laura Mercier:

For Navy, try out Bobbi Brown and Lancome which has some particularly beautiful blues this season:

Green gold yellow purple are all good colours of shadow
Wear shades of brown shadow and use brown eyeliner with black mascara. Open up your eyes with lighter colors
Wear medium brown eyeshadow over your lid, and then a light pink on the crease. Put white on the brow bone and blend well.





Put a brown liquid liner near your bottom lash-line. Make it a defined, but subtle line.





A dark, rich brown pencil eyeliner is really great.


Urban decay has this color called bourbon, and it's great





Make sure you curl your lashes, and you can put the curler under a blow-dryer on hot prior to using it.





After your eyelashes are curled, apply mascara in a brownish black.





for an evening look, wing the eyeliner for a cat eye look





hope this helps!





Products-





Urban Decay Glide on Eye Pencil in Bourbon





Almay Intense i-color liquid liner in brown





Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Luminous shadow in Bronze ambition, too too pink, and glow nude





Maybelline Define-a-Lash Mascara





You should be able to find these all at a drug store for a reasonable price, except for the Urban Decay eyeliner. I'm sure you can find a cheaper alternative, but the color is perfect for blue eyes.
