When you know your best eye makeup colors, it gives you confidence. 

Are you a green-eyed beauty?

This is for you!

I share how to choose your best eye makeup shades for the combination of your green eyes and your skin tone.

Do you know that only 2% of the population has green eyes? That surprised me. It's kind of cool. You are a rarity, my beautiful one.

 

So how do you choose your best eyeshadows if you have green eyes?

Of course, you look to the color wheel!

NEUTRALS: NATURAL LOOK

Let's start with what shades of eyeshadow would look the most harmonious, the most natural with your green eyes. In order to do that, we're going to stick close to the  green on the color wheel.

For the most natural and harmonious look, choose some greens -- possibly warm yellow greens, maybe blue or cooler greens, depending on whether you're warm or cooler in your skin tone and your eye color.

Greens:

 

Golds:

 

CONTRASTING COLORS: POP OF COLOR

If you want something to make your eyes pop, choose colors opposite of green in the color wheel -- red, red violets, and the blue violets. Choose colors like deep burgundies, red plums, and light pinks

Reds:

Violets:

These shades work best if you lean towards cooler skin tone and eye tone spectrum.

Fuchsias and Purples:
