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.

Blue will usually "drown them out" as you said, though I have found using a dark navy shade as liner (like Contrast) actually helps the blue in the eyes 'reflect' and it brings them out.

I've found that the colors that bring out my eyes the most are champagne/gold/copper shades, purple/violet, and pinks. I also love greens, I don't know if they exactly make my eye color POP but I think they do look nice together. Some that I get the most compliments on with my eyes are Swish, Jest, Naked Lunch, Banshee, Arena, Retrospeck and paints in Canton Candy and Mauvism. Good luck & have fun looking!

I think amber lights looks really pretty on blue eyes...

 

[Ambi]

I love Twinks, Sketch, Amber Lights, they make my eyes pop like crazy :]

Woodwinked

 

[Hawkeye]

you are going to think i'm nuts but Orange. I kid you not-orange works really well and so does BLACK

 

[flowerhead]

Definately warmer tones for blue eyes...my sister has bright blue eyes and when I use Copper sparkle pigment, Goldmine, Bronze, Mulch, Cranberry, Sumptuous olive, Orange & Amber lights eyeshadow on her, it really brings out her eye colour. Also a strong black liner makes blue eyes pop.

Blue/Green/Gray Eyes, NW20-25 skintone

Hey all my MAC ladies and gentlemen, would you mind suggesting eye and cheek recs? Heck, suggest anything, whether it be eye, cheek, lip, whatever! I can use the help!

Please and thank you! This would help me out a lot.

xox

 

[Femme]

Haha I have bleu/green/gray eyes too and a nw 20-25 skintone

Okay for Liploss for me, I always use Oyster girl. Most of the time i put some coverup on the lips(the mac stick ones) then put oystergirl on top of it.

For cheeks, everyone has dollymix so i guess i'd suggest that

or the new glossade msf

and for eyes, everbody says that brown looks great with blue!.. my favorite color is subtle for the blue eyes. Woodwinked is also very nice. And a great pinkish color is pink freeze

Thanks guys! Any more?

Also, what is a good matte blush? Is it alright to wear a matte one a lot, to school? (I'm in high schoo l still, freshie!

) Do I just apply it on the apples? and what is the best brush to apply my Studio fix powder with, because I'm not extremely keen on sponges.. and one more question, I found that I apply eyeshadow in a really boring way, and I wondered how you all put colors together.. could someone tell me colors that work well together, and my skintone? One more question, I promise haha

What are the best MAC brushes to start out with? I'm looking for about 8-10 very useful ones.

 

[Femme]

I find that a SUBTLE, and TEAL combo works well with my eyes

and also a nice purple smoky eye.

If you want 8-10 brushes, I'd suggest getting the brush pack which is 200 dollars and contains 8 useful brushes. then 2 more brushes that i'd get are the 239 and 217. 239 is for applying pigments and 217 is for blending them. I absolutely love them!.

I can't help you with the foundation question, because i dont wear any.. sorry.

You should buy shadesticks to make the eyeshadow unboring

. The best ones are beige-ing, and shimmersand in my opinion. They give a glitter and a glow to the eyeshadows

blue eyes

Hi, I have brown hair and grey-blue eyes and would love them to stand out and look more 'blue'. Which mac e/s would work the best? Thanx so much!

 

[Ambi]

Re: blue eyes

My favourite "blue eye poppers" are Twinks, Sketch, Amber Lights, Woodwinked, [basically most browns/bronze look great on blue eyed people]

 

[magi]

Re: blue eyes

Have to admit :-D And also dark greys with smokey eyes are very nice. I prefer nice dark looks. Looks the best :-D

Re: blue eyes

I have been finding that Moth Brown really makes my smokey blue eyes POP! I apply it to the lower lashes then line the water line with a black liner, it's simply amazing how they stand out! Give it ago, Moth Brown is now a staple for me.
