I suggest pink, blues (lice an ice blue would be amazing) and some pale greens.

With blue eyes you want them to pop. My pop has sparkling blue eyes she makes me so jealous I have emerald green eyes which is a bit annoying because there isn't much that matches them. When I say emerald eyes I mean EMERALD eyes... I have had people ask me if I am a witch before. :(

I usually do my mom's make up for special occasions and I think blue eyes look stunning with blue eye-shadows, especially metallic blues and whites.

I hope this helps!

Personally, I would go with pinks or light purple shades, like lilac. Stuff in the brown family is also flattering to everyone, if you pick the right shade for your skin tone and eye color. For blue eyes, I would go with a very light taupe.

I am not a makeup expert, but I have done a lot of theatrical makeup, and I know that white is a color that is used by makeup artists to make something prominent. When used on your eyes, it makes them look like they are more prominent in your head, but it doesn't actually enhance the eye color. It actually can detract from it by making your eyelids stand out.

If you really like white, you might try something that is equally pale, but has color to it, such as a very light pink, or even a light taupe. Those will enhance the shape of your eyes, and will help bring out the color, instead of making your eyelids stand out. You want people to see your eyes, and their color, not the lids.

It goes back to the colour wheel - opposite colours magnify each other. For blue eyes, orange (or orange based) eyeshadow will make the blue pop. Think of it this way, when you see someone with jeans and an orange T on - don't those 2 colours really stand out? The same will happen with your eyes.

I love white eyeshadow... Just accent with a nice darker shade. Since you have blue eyes I wouldnt go too dark.. Keep it simle. Highlighting with greens, pinks and light browns.. Just depends on how dark you are. If you are dark skinned, go with a darker accent color, but white is always a great base!

I agree with the contrasting colors and for a more natural look would reccomend earth tones, rusts, browns, creams, and milky pinks. When you want to stand out, use colors in the same family but with a different finish- go for metallics: copper, gold, & bronze can add a kick of light and pizazz! Try using a deep coffee colored eyeliner and brown/black mascara with them instead of jet black.

You could try: grays, beige, pinks and lavenders. I think the white should only be used as a highlighter on the browbone. By itself, it's too stark. I'd stay away from blues, 'tho...not enough contrast w/your eye color.

Go to Sephora and get one of their artists to work with you in the "professional" make up - I love it :0 I have brown eyes and change mine all the time; just go and play and see what you feel the best in wearing
