Also, the key to a really nice, natural makeup look is brows. I think defining your brows just a bit with a brow powder with make your gorgeous eyes just pop! To finish off the look, maybe smudge a bronzey/brown eye kohl into your lashes on the outer 2/3 of your eye on top and the lower 1/3 on bottom (MAC Teddy is my fav) to add some definition. Or you could try winged eyeliner? That's an easy way to do a neutral look. And mascara is great too.. I love L'Oreal Voluminous cause it's cheap but works just as good as YSL or Chanel or Dior.
I'd say just pop on a peachy/pink blush (NARS Deep Throat or Milani Luminous), a bit of highlighter on top of your cheekbones (Benefit High Beam is nice, or even just a pale, shimmer eyeshadow works fine too) and a neutral pink gloss would be perfect.
And if you wanted to venture into more dramatic eyeshadows, purple would definitely enhance the green in your eyes.. Shale (by MAC) is a great purpley/grey color that's really neutral but still a little bit dramatic.
HTH!
