What is the best color for blue eyes? I really like the eye makeup that the Victoria's Secret models were wearing on the runway lastnight, how do I get that "look"?

It all depends on your eye color and shape.

as a 14-yr veteran of beauty biz, having done photo shoot makeup, to make small eyes stand out, i would use a light shade as a base, and line with a darker color. You can accent the area over your iris to inner corner with light, then thinly line with medium/dark at lashline out to a small shadow triangle at outer corner, or if you have enough space, light over iris area and then medium shade on inside and outside corner - always blend well, and get the tools you need. a thin foam pointy applicator works welll to line in your darker color.
Your light tone can be near the light/dark value of a flesh tone (any color you want) - NOT white as too fake. Frosty shades stand out more than mattes.You can also do half/half - light on inside, medium/darker on outer corner. I would not have your darks be extremely dark like black or midnight blue. Stay toward medium to medium-deep - i still suggest a little frost. Look thru magazine ads a lot, especially Avon/MaryKay or any other makeup ads. Have fun. Get glittery for evening or parties.

I have blue eyes and I have been using a Light purple or silver for day and dusty purplish silver or golden tone for day. They open up your eyes and enhance your color. I don't know what colors the girls where wearing on the show last night but if you want those exact colors I suggest going to their website or maybe even their store to see what they say.

Buy it from victoria's secret or look for a picture from that show and then look around a drug store or w/e and see if what you buy matches it. Also make sure that you don't already have the makeup.

I have very blue eyes and dark makes them stand out very well and a lot bigger. Lighter colors they just make them look the same.

I notice from your avatar you probably have blue eyes so the best thing to use is silver matt eyeshadow on the lid, followed by charcoal grey/black on the socket line being careful not to carry it up to the brow.
Then black eyeliner on the whole lower lid and black macara lightly brushed on upper and lower lashes, being sure of no clumping.
I have blue eyes to and this looks amazing on me!

i think dark will do the trick. i have brown eyes that r blah w/out make up but i use either purple or brown eyeshadow with black liner on top and bottom (the inner ridge of the bottom) w/ mascara and my eyes get huge....i like it.

you won't manage to inevitably make your eyes seem lighter, yet you additionally may cause them to seem brighter. word a shimmery easy brown or purple for an afternoon time seem, or a shimmery purple or blue for a night out. the nice and cozy button is the shimmer, so in case you word a lighter shade close to on your larger lashline, it will make your eyes seem bright and unsleeping. wish this facilitates! -Mara

apply a light base, and then use a dark liner to make small eyes really stand out.
