You are very lucky to have green eyes as they can take any colour. It all depends on how you apply it. I have green eyes and I wear whatever colour goes with my outfit. It is best to buy duo or quad eyeshadows as they give the complimenting colours in one. My advise is never only wear one colour, I personally go for four colours and blend, but two can work just as good. Use the lighter colour over the whole lid, then the darker colour at the edges blended into the centre and a shimmery colour just below the brow.
Have fun experimenting. :-)

Go to Wal-mart and they have samples you can look at but from my personal green eyed girl expo I would say:
1:
put a shear cover over the whole lid with with a light white or shimmery color
2:
Along the edge of your lid where the eye lashes are put a light pink and under the eye along the line of eye lashes.
3:
On your lid line, in between your brow and your eye lashes right in the crease, put a brown color in the shape of half a circle or a rainbow shape.
4:
Add eye liner (optinal) and mascara and your a green eyed beauty!
So basically to answer your question pink, brown, light teal, purple and all pastel colors and gold goes great with green eyes. Black is a great color but you haft to be very carefulll not to overdo. Green is the most versatile color, it goes great with lots of colors, its mostly your opinion of what goes good with your complexion. Another things is that the less you wear of the right color is the best thing, nobody looks at a girl with caky make up and says "Wow that girl is pretty", make up is all about enhancing your natural beauty. Good luck.

My eyes are greenish grey and I normally wear purple, brown or grey eyeshadow. Brown's probably the one I wear most often because it's quite subtle and natural.
But when I want to make my eyes really stand out, I wear green eyeshadow to match them. I don't use a lot though, because too much would be overpowering. I just use it to line around the outside of each eye.
If you go for the bright eyeshadow look, make sure you keep your lips very subtle, otherwise you'd look a bit like a clown.

all depends on hair colour and other make up choices i.e. lipstick, foundation shade, and also your outfit. If you are trying to emphasise your eyes then a bold colour would be appropriate, preferably matching the above factors!
i am blonde and have green eyes, i always go for emphasis with my eyes as i feel they are my best facial feature and use a cream eyeshadow in a baby pink shade!
just try experimenting and see what suits you best and what you feel most comfortable with!

Purple. It really makes your eyes pop. If you use a light purple on the lid and a darker purple in the crease it looks great. Revlon has a pallette in grocery/drug stores that has purple and green and is made specifically for green eyes. You should check it out!

Browns and golds. Some blues can also work well, but be careful of using greens. Depends very much on your skin and hair colouring to be honest.

I would say lavender, it works well for blue eyes as well. Or light grays, applied lightly as well of course. Emerald eye liner will really make your eyes pop I bet. Search for web sites that have good tips on what to wear as well. Ohhh ohh, I bet a mahogany toned eye liner with normal mascara would look gorgeous. I bet all of the big beauty magazines will have good suggestions on their websites.

I have green eyes and dark purple is the best I've found. I don't like the color purple, but it makes my eyes look really pretty. You should try that.
