I have dark brown hair, fair skin and green eyes. What color lipstick/lipgloss or eyeshadow would compliment my features? Please help.

My wife is a hairdresser/ makeup artist.. this is what she suggests... "well you have green eyes, so if you look really close in them there is probably other flecks of colour.. probably a golden colour with a brown. So utilize those colours as a nice base for your eyeshadow... nothing freaky , too loud or bright, think more of autumn colouring. Black eyeliner on the top of your eye lid will add some depth just ontop of your eyelashes area and on your lower eye too .. Blend your eyeshadow colours very well. Finish your eyes with black mascara. Try using a nudish mauve for lip colour with a clear gloss on top for shine. Line your lips first with a colour in the same family of mauve 1 to 2 shades darker then the lipstick nothing darker then that!. Those colours should work, but it's really hard to figure out with out knowing your exact colouring. Good luck."

For green eyes purple eye shadow makes your eyes pop the best. Shades of green and brown can also compliment your eyes.

For lips I'd go with an earthy pink color. Rosey colors tend to work well.

Of course if you want to be dramatic you can always wear red lipstick and go low key on the eyes.

Both my sister and I dye our hair dark brown and dark auburn. We both are fair skined and have green eyes, i might be able to help you. There are these eye shadow kits from Almay FOR green eyes. GET THESE! I've worn purple forever and that always made my eyes look great but after getting these, i'll never go back. As for lipstick/gloss, i either go for a rosey pink color or a sheer chocolatey brown. If you go too light and frosty, your lips will disappear. Good Luck!

your the same as me.

Lips: I usually go with a light pink or nude looking gloss. If you really want the eye-popper look, st night go with corals and reds for your lips (not too much orange in the coral though)

Eyes: Pinks, olives, greens, browns, light oranges, LIGHT shimmery white/beiges, and for the night go with a mix: Plum sparkle eye hsadow and the dab some white on top to lighten it up just a bit.

Want to get ever more glammered up? Add in some peachy toned blushes alng your cheek bone. Apply In upward strokes to make your face look, well, I guess good is the appropriate word!

Good Luck and I really hope this helps.

green eyeshadows will bring out the color of ur eye. u can also apply light shades of blue, purple, pink or brown. those will look good. for lip gloss try pink, brown or neutral.

Pink, because of the eyes. But it depends on the kind of outfit you wear. If you want to look more serious, elegant, red is better... But not to much, just to be noticed.
Try and look at Kristen Kreuk from Smallville, she has the same colors as you.

I have the same hair and skin as you, I wear a soft pale pink sometimes and other times I wear kind of a flesh color, very nuetral.

you should wear black eye liner(top and bottom) to bring out your eyes and hair, and lip gloss---creamy light brown to a fair pink for eyeshadow--none but mascara(black or brown) natural colors always look better
