Recs for a grey look without blue tones

[ThePowderPuff]

I would like to be able to do a nice grey look, but I don't know which shadows to get. My problem is that colours with a blue undertone look terrible on me. Warmer colours are definitely best on me. I tried the Tone Grey Quad, but it was terrible on me. Looked like I had gotten a blue eye.

Which grey look would you do on someone like me, who can't wear blue-toned colour, and looks best in warmer colours? I have blond hair, green eyes and NC25 skin.

I love this look from Temptalias blog using Silver Ring, Electra, Typographic and Carbon (Carbon I have). I doesn't look blue to me, just gray. Would that work?

I looked up the look on Temptalia, I think that's a very pretty silver look that would be nice on any skin tone. Another pretty grey with no blue undertones is Copperplate eyeshadow.

I have copperplate and I love it. It shows up pretty brownish on me though.

My CS 78 palette has some really warm greys (there are two rectangular rows right above the blushes... the bottom rectangle row is warmed grey)

Because it's a warmer grey

... the cooler grey's will show up blue based on you. Try layering Copperplate with colors like Vex and Electra to make your own grey's. You could even use Copperplate to tone down some cooler greys.

Shale is a mauve-grey color, but it might work on you too.

Silver Ring looks quite blue on me..
I like 'Print' for a darker greay =)

Silver Ring & Electra turn blue on me.
