I have blue-gray eyes and nothing really brings them out.

Stick to the cool shades. Deep grays, blues. Don't use just one color blend in a lighter color on the area just under the eyebrow and mix two other colors for the eyelid. A darker one on the outside and in the crease and a lighter one on the inside.

In the color spectrum, orange is the opposite of blue. So orangey gold colors would really bring out the blue in your eyes. My eyes are blue-gray, too, and I put a sheer shimmery wash of a light gold all over my eyelid, then go back with an orangey gold in the crease, plus a dark brown eyeliner whenever I want my eyes to stand out. People always notice! You can also try Almay eyeshadow in "Bring out the Blue" which is a color trio (which includes a gold/brown/orangey color plus a slate blue and a light blue) designed to enhance blue eyes. Best of luck!

A mauve color or light brown would be flattering. Try dampening the eyeshadow with a little water before applying. This will give the eyes a more dramatic look. Also a violet eyeliner would help accentuate your eye color.

Dark brown eyeshadow, a nice contrast to blue gray.

I create color cosmetics for www.colormebeautiful.com. I have blue-gray eyes and have found that my most flattering shade is Malted Milk. Its a rosy-brown with NO yellow in it. Plum is a great dramatic option. For daytime a greyed down plum is nice. AVOID anything yellow based or orangey- it will make your eyes look dead.

it depends on if you want to bring the blue or the gray out more.
metallic colors (gold, copper, bronze, silver) mixed with regular colored eyeliner work well...paired with blue, black/blue, or soft black mascara would work well
also silver, blue, teal, gray eyeshadow.
you could also try those make up products especially designed for specific eye colors.

to make your eyes pop, use contrasting colors to your eye color. since your eyes are a very cool color try warmer colors.
blue eyes look great with bright pinks, golds, yellows, oranges, warm browns, reds, rich purples.
stay away from silvers, greys, pale blues, and pale greens.
