What is the best color of eyeshadow to wear with red lipstick?

Question

I am fair skinned

Answer 1

dark blue combined with light blue and any dark shades go well with red lipstick

Answer 2

Keep the shades light, you need to decide whether you're bringing the attention to your eyes or your lips, you really shouldn't do both. With a red lipstick (which not everybody can pull off) you should use neutral shades, you can add extra coats of mascara to make your lashes pop though (I love Maybeline Waterproof Full & Smooth Mascarra)... wait a bit in-between coats. And vice-versa, if you want to do the dramatic eyes, use a lighter more natural color lipstick with gloss.

Answer 3

Use neutrals (browns, beiges, whites, greys). You could either apply it lightly to drawn even more attention to your lips, or you could do the smoky eye with greys. Personally, I prefer the smoky eyed look.

ps. Never use blue eyeshadow--it will actually make you look like your eyes are bruised. Seriously. Unless you want to do the punk thing or look like you're 12.

Answer 4

i think the smokey eye look looks great with red lipstick!
dark smoky greys, and shimmery beige/white

Answer 5

Well, it really depends on the colour of your eyes, irrespective of the lip colour. With brown eyes a brown or green eyeshadow looks good. Blue/ silver/grey shadow with blue or grey eyes. A more subtle eye colour works best if you have a bold lip colour, particularly if you want to draw attention to your lips/mouth.

Answer 6

Peaches,pinks,and warm neutrals,you dont want to look too overdone,and these compliment each other. Good luck with your makeup!

Answer 7

you shouldn't match the lipstick you should match your eye color
