I second Pascals comment! No blues! Deep Truth is so pretty but looks god awful on me. I do try desperately hard to make my electric eel work but it sits lonely as well, along with my 9 other blues!

I can't wear certain purples because of allergic reactions:

Hepcat, Nocturnelle, Leisuretime, Satellite Dreams, Pink Mink, and Pinked Mauve.

I'd love to wear these but my eyes won't let me.

Mid tone/dark pinks make me look as i have two black eyes. I have yet to find a brown that suits me they just makes my eyes look dark and drab. Mid tone greys look a bit dull on me too, i need a little bit of colour to bring my face to life.

Blues, I'm very fair with red undertones, anything blue makes me look like I'm severely hypothermic [aka grey and lifeless].
Greens look like mold on me. I haven't even bothered trying yellows and other crazy colors, though oddly enough reds are not that terrible on me.

I actually think the only colors that look good on me are browns [or the brown family / golds / bronze etc], and some purples like Pearl of the earth, I'm not a very colorful person.

If anyone knows of a bold pink that would look decent (see: not clownish) on a NW15 redhead, let me know!

As far as eyes go, I wear just about anything. I have some trouble making certain browns look good, but I try to anyways.

Red or bright fuschia on the eyes...but Gwen Stefani made the look HOT in her video for 'New' (see my avitar).

Darker purples look weird on me, because I am so pale. Black looks very harsh, so I tend not to use it (not even as liner). Also, regular flat browns look boring on me. They have to have some shimmer, or be mixed with another color like plum or green or something.

In eyeshadows I haven't encountered yet a color that I can't pull off! (I have brown hair and brown eyes)

As far as lip colors are concerned, brown, extreme pink and dark lip colors don't suit me!

I can't wear yellow (makeup nor clothes) or gold l/s or l/g; I look like a Zombie. Most pinks eye shadows make me look sick.
