Do you think pinks, purples, blues, and greens are cheesy eyeshadow colors? Do you think naturals are better?

Question

I think colored eyeshadows are cheesy looking.
I personally think you should go with natural colors.
But I want to know what you think!

Ever since I saw my professer wearing these really weird colors I HATE wearing colors. What do you think?

Answer 1

People can definatly overdo it, but I love neutral colors and colors. The color eyeshadow that I use are from Cover girl, because they have the different color pack. You are supposed to put the medium color from the lash line to the brow bone, then I put the darker shade in the crease, then the lightest near the eyebrow and it looks awesome because all the colors blend together. I personally stick with lighter colors like pinks or purples because I have blue eyes. If you use darker colors I think too that some people who don't put it on right look like clowns. When I go out to the clubs or bars is when I use colors. the color by Cover girl I use is called Dance party, and it is my all time favorite color eyeshadow. It all depends on what color eyes and skin tone you have to find the right colors for you.

Answer 2

It all depends, on the outfit you're wearing, where you're going, what you are going to be doing. Like, I have a purple shirt, and I noticed when I use this light lavender eyeshadow, it really makes my eyes POP, but when I wear a different color shirt, I just look like somebody who seriously needs make-up help.. But, most the time naturals are much better. and, prettier, in my opinion.

Answer 3

Natural makeup colors are always best, because it allows for your natural beauty to shine through. When your makeup is so noticeable that it becomes the first thing people notice about you, then it is not right for you. If you pair those 'cheesy' colors with the natural ones, you can get away with them though.

Answer 4

I have a preference for naturals. Colors can create a dramatic and interesting effect, but you have to be really careful in you creativity because it's easy to overdo a makeup scheme. Maybe it would be interesting to use all neutrals except for one colorful color; the neutral will tone down the color, and the colorful shade will make the neutrals more shocking and interesting.

Answer 5

I LOVE pink eye shadows, especially w/blue eyes.
I also have a favorit bluish/purplish eye shadow that I wear, it's the same color as my eyes.
Maybe your teacher just wore way too much of it!!!
Wear what looks good on YOU! Everyones different, some ppl jus never figure it out! :)

Answer 6

If your going to use vibrant colours for eyeshadow the rest of your makeup has to be minimal (no Scarlett red lipstick) and try to wear a solid colour shirt (black or white) so that you don't look overdone.

Answer 9

i wouldn't say the blues/purples/greens are "cheesy," they're just very trendy, cliche, and boring. you see them most commonly on the exact same shallow fashion-core indie fashionistas who strive for a unique look, only to end up looking exactly the same as all their friends, with the choppy black/white zebra bob, black jeans, etc.

lame.
