Which colours can you absolutely NOT wear?

[user79]

Do you have any colours or shades that you think look absolutely hideous on you? Or maybe just colours you stay clear of?

For me, I have to say green eyeshadow. I bought Emerald Green pigment and ended up returning it, it just looked so bad on me when I applied it strongly.

I also am not a fan of pink eyeshadow, I think it looks too girly and bland.

Yellow. Dear god, yellow. Not gold...but stuff like chrome yellow, and even bitter is too yellow for me.

No reds or yellows here. And even some of the neutral taupe colors that sometimes turn orangeish...that reminds me...no orange either.

It just looks hideous on my NW15 skin.

Anything brown, be it blue-based or red-based. It makes me look sick, tired, and on my way to attaining zombie-hood.

coppering...couldn't make it work for me. anything that is too red on my skin pretty much makes me look like a crack whore zombie.

Black, anything to dark around my eyes make me look so ugly. Red is horible to.

I look best in pale pinks, like my blusher

browns, anything dark brown make me look so ILL like weird lol

pinks, yellows and some purples make me look bruised and ill!

orange eyeshadow just looks weird on me so I avoid it

Pink eyeshadow makes me look sick. I also have trouble wearing anything too warm like amberlights.

for lipsticks it would be anything too blue based or brown.

Yellows, and cool pinks, the ones that move towards mauve. Ugh. Truly awful. Yellows just make me look sickly.

I have green eyes and MAs always try to steer me towards purples like Beautiful Iris and do an all purple look. I CANNOT pull it off, it always makes me look sick and shitty.

I don't like myself in Pink a lot. I think it makes me look like I have been crying.

chrome yellow

purples(other than very light lilac/lavendar) and blues are the only colours I WON'T wear. No idea if they look bad on me. I don't care to try.

 

[moonrevel]

I wear just about anything and everything on my eyes...I don't know if that's bad, but I think I pull it off okay. I can wear most lip colors, but orangy-red lipsticks look terrible on me. Also any lipsticks that are too brownish look bad, but I'm not as sad about that as I am the reds. I have to be very careful with red lipsticks or I look ghastly!

BRIGHT blue / turquoise shadows...like parrot. which was really disappointing because i ♥♥♥ parrot but it was being neglected, so i sold it. probably a big mistake. lol.

Old Gold, I love the color but whenever I try it on and try to do different looks it looks horrid on me!!

 

[Shellamia]

I really can't stand anything brown or tan, with my complexion, it looks like I have an eye infection.

Purple/burgundy isn't something I'd wear either.

trax made me look like i had gotten punched. bright yellows don't work on me either. even gorgeous gold looked sickly on me.
