Question 1) What color would you say my eyes are?
Honestly, I have no idea anymore.With that in mind....
2) What colors go good with whatever eye color I have? I have the hardest time making my eye make-up work.
I need help. And I'm already aware of the chapstick situation, so you don't need to mention it :)
Your eyes look brown to me :) I am not sure the brand but they had makeup at our PX that was made for each color of eye. So I would check that out :)
ReplyDeleteI think you have brown eyes. I do not wear a lot of make-up and I have blue eyes so I do not have any personal advice. But I googled it and found this interesting article: http://makeup.lovetoknow.com/Eye_Shadow_for_Brown_Eyes
ReplyDeleteHope it helps!!
I would go with brown as well. As for makeup I have brown eyes and I use Almay's 3 color blend for brown eyes.
ReplyDeleteum... your eyes look eerily similar to mine. people say they are brown.
ReplyDeletebut, i'm leaning towards gold / green / brown with a dark circle thing. they probably change with your mood, clothing, weather (mine get really light after a good cry)
i tend to lean towards more neutral shade, warm browns and nudes. i can do some pinkish tones sometimes (if the pinkish undertones of my skin or well covered with powder). i can also work purples and greens.
i CANNOT do anything silver, black, gray... it just makes the brown of the eyes pop out but turns it into a freaky shade of red.
and ther are those brands that have the "wear this for these color eyes" which means i can wear the ones for brown eyes, green eyes and hazel eyes.
we're actually pretty lucky that way!
You have the same color as I do! Sure everyone says brown but they are wrong! They are brown in the middle and, no matter how much my husband insists grey, green on the outside. Here's what I do. Everyday color is an eye brightening pink. If I want the green to pop...which I do...I use purple. I have a couple shaded from light to dark from Mary Kay. Then if I just want brown, I have a golden brown. I love to play with eye shadow! I would be happy to tell you the exact colors (or even take pics) if you'd like!

ReplyDeleteI say hazel too because yours are really close to mine. There is more than just brown there.
ReplyDeleteI think you should stay away from shades of brown because those won't highlight the depth of your eye color. Flat brown or tan will look dull. I like doing a warm taupe on my lid, highlight the brow and inner crease with a shimmery champagne and then do blackish brown for liner and mascara. A lot of people with brown in their eyes go with a plain brown liner but something darker like blackish brown will pull out the other colors and make them stand out.
I always hated my eye color and wanted blue eyes. But hazel can be so pretty if you accent it right.
They look hazel to me. Almay has a line that you can buy specifically for hazel eyes. I use it myself and it comes with a pink, light brown and dark brown. I was skeptical about the pink as I'm not a pink person. But it really worked for me. They also have a set for brown eyes if you wanted to go that way. Let us know how it all turns out :)
ReplyDeleteI think that your eyes are a warm brown. The color is VERY similar to mine. If that is the case I am guessing that sometimes your eyes can look dark brown, other times a honey-golden brown and others a greenish brown.
ReplyDeleteI have found that Purples, some shades of blue and golden tones work best for me. I could never seem to find the right color of eyeliner, I tried everything. I recently started using eyeshadow as eyeliner (applied with a very small brush). The color that I use the most is a really dark navy. It works well because it is not as harsh a black but you can't tell it is clue unless you get really close.
I have to say your eyes are really pretty. And to answer your questions, I think your eyes are hazel. My eyes are brown and yours definitely don't look brown to me. I can't help you with the color situation though!
ReplyDeleteI also believe your eyes are hazel. However, i can't give you any advice. I am really really bad with make-up. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love this questions because I have a minor obsession with eye make up. First, I think your eyes are brown. Although they are light enough that it's debatable. I think for eye make up though this is actually good. You can go different directions. I would avoid brown eye makeup because that may make your eyes look dark and tired. Gold, however would be a very good color. You can mix it with pinks or with blues. You could also do a gold/purple palate (if you can find a warm purple) which would bring out the hazel tones. But I think gold and pinks would be really great on your pretty eyes.
