Re: Eyeshadow recommendations please..

I second Sumputous Olive. Depending on the light it's either more green and brown. I like to blend it with Goldmine...Goldmine in the inner corner, and S.O. on the outer 2/3.

I really like the Pigment Pastorale. It was a LE but its still on ebay. Thats such a soft green that will make your hair and eyes pop! Its kinda shimmery and is perfect for a night out! Hope that helps. XxX

What would fit on me?

Hi everyone

at first, sorry for my baaad english. I'm from germany and will certainly make a lot of mistakes

but hopefully you'll understand me

There is an event at the weekend in my town. It's called "musicnight" and there will be some bands in different bars/pubs.
I want to try something new but not toooooo much. I actually don't wear a lot of make-up. Usually I use eyeliner (black), light brown and dark brown eyeshadow, mascara, and a bit blush.
What do you think would look good on me?Which colors? My eyes are brown/green and my skin is light (lightish? bright?

Smokey eyes are always a good look for going out, and purple enhances hazel eyes so I might try a purple eyshadow like Nocturnelle or Purple haze on the lids, lined with eyeliner and blended out.

I have hazel eyes.. am I out of luck when it comes to blue eyeshadows?

I am pretty light toned with dark features and hazel eyes and I cannot seem to find a blue eyeshadow that looks good on me.. I have been experimenting and am about to give up. Please tell me it is not a hopeless cause!!!

maybe like a blue violet would work? Purple is a great color for hazel and brown eyes IMHO, so maybe something closer to purple would work out?

I have hazel eyes as well. While I have found it to be quite difficult like you say, I have made some things work. Light application & blending blues is key to me. I LOVE Parrot, Big T, Climate Blue, Gulf Stream, Aquadisiac, and Electric Eel (I can only use VERY little of this color even blending with other things) and I don't own any darker blues except for ones in LE quads. But I remember the summer that the (I believe it was called Neo Sci-Fi?) collection came out, it was the ones in BRIGHT orange packaging, one of the MAC MAs did a look on me using Climate Blue, Gulf Stream, Expensive Pink and Time and Space. Blending brighter blues with browns especially the pink-toned brown like Expensive Pink looked GREAT! That would be my best suggestion to make blues work. HTH! <3

I second what logical1 said! Purples also compliment hazel eyes wonderfully.

Have you tried a navy? I think that would look stunning against hazel eyes!

try shades of turquoise (like aquadisiac), dusty blues (like Tilt) and dark navy blues (like Contrast or Deep Truth)

I have verrry similar coloring to you, and blues are a challenge to me as well! In fact, for that reason I hardly ever wear them. I've found that darker blues work pretty well (Deep Truth/Flashtrack, basically the same color), and light blues (like Mutiny p/m) work well if I pair them with a dark blue, brown, or purple. The one thing I haven't been able to find a way to pull off is a bright blue like Electric Eel or Freshwater. Thankfully blues aren't my favorite color!

I sound like you

The only blue I've been able to pull off well is The New Blue from Lancome. It's a dark navy metallic. It's a very pretty color.

Thank you for all the recommendations.. You ladies rock! Purple's look good on me so why didn't I think of a blueish purple color???? and I have been hesitant about navy but it looks like I have alot of experimenting to do this at the MAC store this weekend.. I will let you know how everything goes and post pictures

I'd go with maybe a more greenish-blue (Shimmermoss is very pretty but its more on the teal side) or a more purplish-blue.
