Answer 1

I think that combination sounds lovely for blue eyes. You should decide for yourself if what you're using is a bad combination by just looking in the mirror. If you think it looks good, that's all that matters.

Although, I'll help with some other options if you'd like a change:

:: Eye Shadows ::

*Always put a darker color on the lid and a lighter on top near the brow.

Good Choices:

1) Pinks: gives you a girly/sweet look.

2) Grays: has a smoky eye effect.

3) Lilacs: if you have the right shade it will work, or make your eyes seem a bit green

4) Peach: it will attract attention to your eyes and intensify them.

Bad Choices:

1) Brown: makes your blue eyes look duller

2) Blue: they tend to compete for attention and often get up getting more noticed than your actual eye color. if you really want a blue, don't get one that's the same shade as your eye color.

3) Green: it just doesn't work.


:: Eye Liners ::

* Make sure the eye liner goes with your eye shadow. Cool eye shadow, Cool
liner. Warm eye shadow, warm eye liner.

Good Choices:

1) Dark Brown (which you already use)

2) Navy

3) Black


:: Blushes ::

* Make sure your blush and lip gloss are somewhat alike. Don't wear peach blush
and pink lip gloss.

1) Peach

2) Pink


:: Brands ::

*You want quality and long lasting. Trust me, some items cheap drug store
make-up has is not the same as expensive (e.g. MAC, bobbi brown, lancome).
Mascaras are probably the same. You can get away with an awesome
Maybelline mascara and it'll look great. Pretty much same story with eye liners
except the expensive brands tend to stay on longer.

Eye shadows are better with more expensive brands because the texture is
better quality and lasts longer. Lip glosses are better with more expensive
brands because the color is better and they're better quality.

Good Choices:

1) MAC

2) Bobbi Brown

3) Lancome

4) Maybelline: for mascaras and maybe eye liner.


I hope these help. Good Luck! <3

Answer 2

brown eyeliner is OK for blonde's not to dark and not thick.
Purple eyes OMG no way.
use light shades like pink, light browns or even blue. Its called shading use at least 2 of the same color's and blend them together.use the dark color first then the lighter one.
Never wear red lip stick if you don't have very white teeth.
Always use a lip liner first. use a brush to put lip stick on to blend it into the lips.
Use lighter shades of lipstick for day time and a gloss is always good. After putting on lip stick you should open your mouth and put your index finger in close it then slide your finger out. This helps not getting lippy on your teeth.
If you are not sure what type of products to use go into a store and have a free make over. They are great and they will teach you what and not to wear.

Answer 3

I have blond hair and blue eyes. I like to wear white shimmer above the eyelid up to the brow and blue or light shimmery grey on the eyelid. Try Cover Girl roll on shimmers.

Maybe a very thin line of black eyeliner and a thickening mascara.

Nude lip gloss and you are ready to go.

Answer 4

Pastel Purple works for everyones skin tones. The brown eyeliner is better than black for your fair skin. I don't think you can ever go wrong with a shimmery tan eyeshadow and bronzing blush. I like Lancome eyeshadow in Honeymoon.

Answer 5

You should try blue eyeliner. You can get it at Riteaid,kmart,anywhere I should suppose. It would make your eyes pop. You can also use the two shaded mascara. Apply the white end first then the black one,makes nice thick eyelashes.
Maybe you should give give liquid eye shadow a whirl,and try green :]

Answer 6

It all depends on your age and without seeing you it is hard to know what is good for your face. Make up should enhance some of your features and draw away from others. The best advice is to go to a cosmetic center at a mall or department store and have a free consultation. Also, many beauty salons will offer free consultations in hope that you buy their products. Try to get as many ideas as possible. Make up should make people look at you to say how good you look and not look at all that make up.

Answer 7

OMG YES IT IS BAD . YOU ARE WEARING EVERYTHING WRONG WRONG WRONG , FAIR SKIN CALLS FOR SOFTER TONES OR YOU END UP LOOKING LIKE A CLOWN . GET RID OF ALL THAT CLOWN MAKE UP AND TRY THIS . BROWNS , BEIGE'S , CREAMS , PINKS , GREY'S , SILVER , FOR SHADOW , DARK BROWN , GREY, FOR EYE PENCIL LINER , NO BLUSH , SO PINK FOR LIPS , SHOW YOUR TRUE BEAUTY , AND REMEMBER TO NOT OVER DO IT ON THE LINER , THAT IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE GIRLS DO , THEY THINK MAKING THE EYES DARK SHOWS THEM OFF BETTER WHEN ALL YOU REALLY SEE IS ,, DARK LINER AROUND THE EYES SO SHOW OFF THE BABY BLUES , GO LIGHTLY ON THEE EYE MAKE UP .

DONT use purples and blues. they look reeaally unnatural and it looks like preschooler pretend makeup. use browns and pinks...just any color that can be found on your face is good for eyeshadow
