Yes, I agree with All That Glitters, as well. It looks great on the lid with a brown-ish crease colours and really brings out the blue!

I have a favorite an MA put together for me, but they are mostly Limited Edition shades from the Neo Sci fi part .. so don't know if that helps but the last part might inspire...

Time and Space LE (All over Lid) IMO a nice medium brown color
Magnetic Fields LE (Crease) A darker Shiney shimmery brown
Femme Fi LE inner corner and highlight, a taupe color..

Then Auto-de-Blue technickhol on the water line
And Aquadisiac as liner on the lower lash line,

That last part is the part that makes it poppp IMO, I never would have come up with that myself....but I lovvvvvvve it now (I'm a makeup newbie though)

My eyes are blue/green/grey this brings out the 'blue' in them At least from what I see in the mirror and photos.

How to apply Arena to make my blue eyes POP?

I have blue eyes and am a PPP. I heard that Arena is a great color for blue eyes, and I'm wondering how I should apply it: as a wash, in the crease, lid etc? Also, what other blue eye poppin' colors should I use with it?

Thanks!

Perky as a base, Arena on the lid, Rule washed through the crease, A Little Folie blended in the crease to define, Vanilla as a highlight.

Perky or Soft Ochre.

As a NC 20 as well and blue eyes, I would have to agree with Perky. I also love Cash Flow. Also, even though this isn't a paint or paint pot, I love to put Avalanche just in the inside of the corner of my eye to light up the blue and really make my eyes look wider (I also have insanely small eyes!). Hope this helps!

Thanks, I'm going to get a "perky" off ebay. Any other suggestions? How do you feel about Painterly, Untitled, Sublime Nature, Bare Canvas?

Edited to add: And Bare Study?

Im an NC 20 with blue eyes, and I think you should get stilife paint! its a nice neutral thats kind of metallic and shimmery but not overkill. I have perky paintpot, and I like it, but I'd def. reccomend stilife because its not really going to add much color but the effect is gorgeous for a my lids but better look

Does Perky give a "my lids but better" look, or does it look like eye makeup?

I also have Painterly, but honestly it just look like my lids. I use it as a base for my eyeshadows, but I wouldn't use it alone. It just looks boring alone on NC 20.

Bare Study paint pot is gorgeous. It is a sheer champagne with very soft shimmer. Perfect on it's own for a subtle eye or as a base for other looks.

NYX e/s for blue eyes

I hope I post this right. Anyway, I love my MAC but recently found NYX and fell in love with the eyeshadows. I have Rust and Golden and just ordered a trio with matte neutrals. Do you great guys have any suggestions to good e/s for my blue eyes from NYX? Any colour is interesting really, I trust you.
