...you can start with a light base brushed all over your lids...then brush on darker earth tone colors close to your lashes... then blend
earth tone which will be great for your dark eyes and skin tone = brown, tan with a hint of gold shimmer, copper, or mahogany ;)

Of Course! Remember to use a Primer so the green could stick out and be bright against your skin. I recommend "Urban Decay Primer potion". Its the best and it does not crease. But it looks small but dont let looks fool you girl! You should cut it open and schoop the primer out and put it in a container. There is more then meets the eye! You can buy this at a local Ulta store :3 For a nice green colors I would recommend "Graffiti" by urban decay. Its a nice metallic green and its just gorgeous. Also can buy this at a ulta store. Look up so green eye shadows on the mac cosmetics websites. You can get these at local mac counters at your local mall. You can also talk to some people on a live chat [mac] and they can recommend you some stuff. Remember these are professional makeup and some are quite costly. Hope that helps! Remember primer is a must!!!!! contact me if you have anymore questions :3

If you're going for natural, use a shadow around your eyes that is slightly lighter than your natural skin tone, especially underneath your eyes, then follow up with a neutral/warm brown-burgundy on the crease of your eyelid towards your eyebrow. Follow up with dark brown eyeliner and mascara.
Go for natural earth-tones even if you go more dramatic.
For a more dramatic/evening look, use the lighter shadow (mentioned above)under your eye and on the side of your nose near your eye to open up the eye. use a dark brown shadow as a thick eye liner on top and on the bottom just on the outer part of the eye. Choose another shadow of another color or the same tint but lighter to go above that up to the crease of your eye. Follow up with black eyeliner and mascara.
Practice in front of the mirror, its fun. Remember to start with the eye that you have the hardest time doing, that way it is easier to match the other eye.

Oooh, I have the same thing going on. Olive skintones are GREAT as long as you know how to work with them.
Brown eyeshadow goes with everything on this skintone, and it won't make you look like kermit the frog, as olive complexions are very green. But if you want you can also mix forresty greens in with this.
Stay away from blues as they just look-- odd....
Golds are superb as well, and mixed with browns they're fun. Deep dark purply-browns are great for that romantic look, and pinks work well if you want to look summery.
Just remember if you use dark shadow on this skintone, use black eyeliner, or else it won't show up, light shadow, use brown or else it will over power the shadow.

You know what dont be afraid to experiment with the colors dont be afraid to wear purple or green or even blue these colors are pretty they dont have to match what you are wearing as long as it looks good and you are happy with the ending result .Using Color is the answer so sit on youre sink and play with youre make up and see what it has in store for you .

a nice golden-glowy tone always looks good and rad. I think its the neutral color everybody can wear, a more whitish tinted shimmer looks hot on the brow-bone and brings out those eyes

Depending on where I'm going, I use a lighter shade of grey for daytime and if I'm going out it's darker. I use a dark blue eyeliner and brownish black mascara.

I think glitter green shadow will look good. Also try sky blue.
