Smile MAC Shadows to make blue eyes stand out and first post, yay!
Hi all!

New to this forum and this is my first post! My most favorite feature on my face are my eyes so I love to make them REALLY stand out. I would like some suggestions on MAC shadows, pigments, paints, liners that would make my blue eyes look BLUE BLUE. I don't really like pinks that much although some people seem to think they make blue eyes pop, I just don't like them. And I HATE blue eyeshadow!! I am also fair. Looks for day and evening would be awesome, both dramatic and natural.

I'm actually looking for specific shades, not just colour groups...Shroom, etc. and so on. Shadesticks, powder, liner shade suggestions. Thanks!

Oh and I am not a fan of violet at all either. Thought I should add that.

orange is opposite blue on a colour wheel so you want orange, rust and peach shades - Honesty, Honey Lust, Naked Lunch, Amber Lights, Woodwinked, Coppering are some of the best.

Shimmersand shadestick is a good choice. and i recommend Teddy liner to just about everyone.

congrats on the first post

my suggestion is definetly including oranges and browns. pinks and reds look great too! the right shades of purple and green will do too. most blues will look bad unless your shade is an icy blue. hope i helped!

MAC I suggest;;

definetly take a look at the Warm Pigment Set
and also the Well-Plumed Quad
Amber Lights
Love-Bud
Paradisco
Coppering
Brown Down
Mulch
Velvet Moss
Plumage {only blue!}

actually, purple is best with green eyes. but i'd try something like Shale paired with Naked Lunch and Amber Lights and a violet liner if you're looking for purple to go with blue eyes.

My eyes are blue-gray. I like Parfait Amour with Evening Aura or Rule. Another combo used is Swimming and Coppering (as a liner).

I find greys are really good. They don't make eyes stand out as much as bronze or copper, but it's nice to have options. Copperplate and Earthly Riches are my favourites, but I also like Shale, Knight Divine, and Scene.
