I seem, from your description, to have similar coloring... I find that using a bold color in the crease with a mid tone on the lid and a highlighter on the brow help to keep me from looking washed out... If I just use one light shade as a wash I look washed out too... As for color combos, I don't know what help to offer because I just play until I find ones I like...

It seems I also have similar coloring, and I have found lately that any kind of grey really makes my eyes stand out without making me look blah. Sounds boring, I know, but it really works for me lol!

Hola,
I have hazel eyes but really want to bring out the green in them.
Any recommendations? Either exact shades or general hues
I have NW25 skin whatever that means
ops: , and dark brown bobbed hair with a short fringe. The short fringe draws attention to the eye and brow are so I want to really make them look fab.
I'm new so please be patient with me

That will probably be what you're looking for.
Also I have blue-green eyes and I find when I wear deep purple eyeshadow the green in them realy seems to stand out. I don't know if that's the same for hazel though.[/url]

i have hazel eyestoo! try purples, salmon colors, coppers.
here are some examples that i think made my eyes look really green:
the oranges in this makes the green pop
and the purples in this make the green pop...think of colors that have red in them..red is the opposite of green on the color wheel..so oranges, pinks, purples, even some browns will makes green stand out...but dont wear green..that will definitely not make it stand out!

Thank you folks, I shall give it a go.
I find purples enhance my dark circles under my eyes, but will def try oranges.

I would go for light purples on top -- like Beautiful Iris from MAC
Greens perhaps
Blues would be a must.
I could see Corals and Oranges looking great.
Stay away from Reds and Cranberry colors, I don't think those would do you any favors.
Coppers are pretty.

neutral types..
I was looking at getting Gleam eyeshadow and was wondering how that would look on a NW20 skin tone with hazel eyes... i want it for basically an everyday color for a simple wash or as something i can play up with some cranberry and woodwinked...
also how is Hue as lipstick? are MAC's lipsticks cream or dry?

Wow, you and I are basically the same colouring (I am NW15 in the winter). Here are some of my faves:
- Shroom
- Sweet Lust
- Dazzlelight
- Naked Lunch
- Grain
- Vanilla
Depending on the type of lipstick, MACs can be both creamy or dry. Hue, in particular, is a glaze so it shouldn't be drying. I haven't tried this particular lipstick - perhaps someone who has can comment? My faves for our colouring are:
- Plink!
- Giddy
- Hug Me
- Politely Pink
All the lippies I like are Lustres, and I don't find them to be drying at all. Just a little lip balm underneath and you are ready to go!
HTH!
