Neutral Lover easing into Colors - HELP

[SkylarV217]

I am a head over heals neutral lover. I'm all about the creams and browns and what not. I have a few greens ( my eyes are green) and what not but after looking at some of the looks you ladies have done so well I would like to ease into colors... What do you ladies recommend? TIA

purples and oranges/coppers go really well with green eyes.

I love neutrals too but MAC has lots of nice colours. Black tied with humid on top makes a really gorgeous dark green smokey eye and beautiful iris is pretty wearable too.

i personally dont care what eye colours go with what eyeshadow - something not too scary would be a colour like swish, and club is great too. parfait amour is nice also

 

[Shaquille]

you should try teal, clarity (blue, really pops ur eyes), aquadisiac, newly minted, freshwater (medium blue), parfait amour (purple), expensive pink, passionate (pink to red)..
honestly, I agree with Nzsallyb, don't care about what eye colors go with what shadows..

peaches & apricots & corals are a good way to branch out

those colors naturally compliment most skin tones
and i think they are opposite green on the color wheel
so they should make your green eyes pop

Paradisco goes on sheer so it's not scary for a beginner (pinky coral with gold)

Coral is pro color but I think Rule is a good sub (Rule is more orange... coral is more pink)
both are matte and can be layered under paradisco to give paradisco more of a punch

I agree with Shaquille ^^^... Expensive Pink is peachy with gold and is a veluxe pearl so it's an easy texture to work with and blends out well

Purples look really good with green eyes too... I would suggest a crease color like plum dressing or fig 1. That way you can add it to your neutral look and slowly ease yourself into color! thats what I did. Also humid and deep truth are good for this as well. Sumptous olive with a color like gorgeous gold would look awesome with your eyes and itsnt too "out there." I agree with peaches and corals as well, I love expensive pink, coppering, amberlights, coral.

I love Sumptuous Olive--It's great with neutrals! Nocturnelle is a fun color for something different and a little color too!

I never thought about corals, but that would look really nice if it's done right but it depends because of your hair color. When I think of purples I typically think of bold, dark purples because I'm fair skinned and blonde with green eyes but of courseee for you doll I would say that some really light lilac-y purples might look really nice with brown outer V's blended. Oooo yesss... Now I can't wait to get home b/c I think I have some fyrinnae purple samples for you! LOL
if not you alreadddy know whose goin shopping

I think a fun way to ease into color is by wearing a pop of color on the lower lashline. It could be eyeliner or shadow (or both), but it's fun and simple. It's one of my staple summer looks. I love something like Tan or Jardin Aires on the lid, with a bright green, blue, or purple on the bottom lashline. I always get compliments on this particular look!

You could also use a brighter shade on the lid, then a more neutral shade in the crease/outer V to keep it from being too bright.

I had to ease into colors myself. I'm still most comfortable in neutrals, but I'm almost equally comfy in colors now too. I just have to be in the mood for color, while neutrals are an every day kinda thing.
