I finally got my Bronze and LOVE it as a liner. Coppering is on my To Get list and I'm waiting for Chocolate Brown and Rushmetal pigments.

Another for Coppering!!! I have blue eyes and I get a ton of compliments with Coppering. I also love mulch and bronze e/s.

Amber Lights is a must in my opinion for blue eyes.

Coppering is good for more olive skintones IMO, if you have fairer skin, Antiqued might work.

I like Mythology and Honesty together too.

I have really fair skin and Coppering looks great on me.

I think coppering is usually a bit much for me, but I absolutely ADORE using it in the crease.

I also recommend Bronze and Rushmetal pigment. Both work very well for me (pale blue eyes with a hint of green)

E/S recommendations for Brown Hair & Blue Eyes?

Thanks to all of your fotds and tutorials I've started to experiment a bit more

I'm not doing so well with the eyes though!! My eyes are quite small and close set and anything too dark just looks like I've been in a fight

So, I wondered if anyone could make any suggestions as to what colours might suit? I'd like to try both a neutral look and something a bit more adventurous. I've included some pictures so you can get an idea of my colouring and eye shape

Thanks in advance.

my friend has similar coloring to yours (her hair is a little lighter but she also has blue eyes) and she wears a lot of brownish/neutral shades and peachy shades....she also bought this eyeshadow from Sephora - it's Sephora-brand and it's called the colorful mono pearl eyeshadow. she bought it in pearl no. 2 which is called the bronze pearl but it looks almost like a plummy bronze:

the swatch on that website is pretty accurate to the color. anyway she wore it the next day with some black e/l and it made her blue eyes POP! i highly suggest trying it

Thanks xiahe and frocher, I'll investigate those colours

I like the sound of trying eyeliner for a different look. I'm always nervous with it as I worry it'll make my eyes look smaller, I suppose it depends on the colour though doesn't it?

Anything orange, it might seem a bit too adventurous but I swear nothing will make your blue eyes pop quite like it, try paridisco for a subtle shade or else coppering or firespot if it's still available

Thanks Sinford. I'm trying to compile a list of mac e/s to get that are similar to the shades recommended. I'll add those to my list. I think I might have to buy a pallette to but them all in!

Sinford is right. Orange.

All suggestions to follow are MAC.

For a more subtle look, try Jest if you have cool undertones, Gleam if you have warm undertones. Or or the new Paint Pot: Rubenesque.

To amp it up a touch, use Paradisco. And go to maccosmetics.com and order Firespot. Use these with bronzes or golds or other neutrals. Add Teddy liner or another rich bronze-y color, or use a black liner.

Your blue eyes have never looked so blue!
