Re: How do I pull off blue eyeshadow

i think a super shimmery icey or baby blue can always work. i love it alone allover the lid with liquid liner/mascara and some bronzer/pink lips, it looks really fresh and cute.

I really like Tilt eyeshadow, it's like a denim sort of blue and I find it looks good on a lot of people. It's my "everyday" blue, since it's not that crazy but still allows me to wear blue.

I have Hazel eyes as well and the only blue I can pull off is Lancome's The New Blue (used in a smokey look) or blue/aqua/turquoise used as a liner along my lash line. So far no one has ever has ever been able to use a blue e/s on me and have it look nice LOL.

What kind of blues do you want to wear? I find dark blues work on most people.

I'm not sure what problems you're facing with blues, but I would also make sure the rest of your face is fairly simple if you're wearing a bright blue

Re: How do I pull off blue eyeshadow

I have hazel eyes, and I just had to play around with blues. I like a light blue on the lid (like Moon's Reflection or Azrael Blue) with a dark blue in the crease and outer corners (Flashtrack). That's a super easy way for me to wear blues, and it's not overwhelming with my eye color.

i also have hazel eyes, and wear blues the most. i have cool toned fair skin, dark brown hair. hm, dont know why blues doesnt work for you.
perhaps really good blending and a thicker liner helps..

Apply Brown Script e/s or Beautyburst e/s (Barbie) ABOVE the crease. The combo is so pretty!

I have Hazel eyes also, and blue was the hardest color for me to work with! Start off with Contrast (a nice dark blue)- put on the outer V with whatever color you want on the lid. Then, blend the crease out with something neutral like Wedge to tone it down.

Re: How do I pull off blue eyeshadow

Thanks for all the help! I got a few looks that I think work. I tried a really pale blue on the lid with a bit of pink on the inner corner. Then I put a tiny bit of a bright blue on the outer corner. I thought it looked good.

I think my issue was just trying to use too much blue- without balancing it. Thanks again!

Dark denim blues I find work on most people, regardless of eye color. I've got hazel green eyes that change from time to time depending on different variables, and I generally find blues don't work on me in any respect unless they're really dark navys or whathaveyou.

I think what's important for you is to choose a blue that plays up whichever prominent color is in your eyes-because Hazel can be a complex color, sometimes more green than brown, sometimes the other way around. If you got more brown hazel, go for truer blues; if you're more green, go for deeper sea and naval blues.

Though I love me some Electric Eel by MAC, but that's good for when I feel saucy.
 
Re: How do I pull off blue eyeshadow

grr. i feel your pain. i'm nc37 skin, black hair, and hazel eyes. Blues are terrible! I have electric eel and cool heat, which I rarely use. Cool Heat I can usually pull off with another color, but electric eel and i still fight. i love it though, so i usually end up just lining my lower lashes with it or something just so i don't feel like i wasted money by buying it, lol. it was one of the first shadows to draw me to mac so when i finally got it.. i was so excited, but very disappointed when i tried to wear it, lol. oh, and i'm absolutely dying dying dying for shimmermoss. i tested it in the store and i loved it on my skin color, but hated it against my eyes. oh, the woes of being dark skined, hazel eyed

I have hazel eyes too and find blues tricky to pull off. I find that i can pull blue off if I wear ONE shade of blue and then the rest neutrals. For example woodwinked with deep truth in the crease or azreal blue with carbon. I do the same with greenyblues as well like shimmermoss.

Re: Eyeshadow recommendations please..

Have you tried aquadisiac (aqua) and swimming (green) these are 2 of my favourite shadows.

I like to do a look with both of these and parfait armour (purple). Each applied to one third of the lid, A first, then S and then PA on the outer third, blended really well with the 217, using shroom or nylon as a highlight.
