Does it look good with blue eyes, or tacky. The makeup artist at the mac store said that the contrast is good. but i'm not too sure.... (i have blue eyes)

Generally people with blue eyes have "cool" complexions, meaning they look best with cool makeup colors on. Orange is a warm makeup color and probably wouldn't go too well with a blue-eyed girl's skin tone. There are exceptions, but the best way to know for sure is this: when you put it on, does it look flattering? Does your skin seem more radiant or does it seem dull? I'm guessing it won't look good, but only you can tell for sure.
Hope that helps!

In theory it shoud work. Orange is the color that contrasts the most with blue so it should make your eye color stand out. Personally, I think any color is wearable if you apply it right. If it's a really strong color, use it very sparingly. If you're doing lot of make up on your eyes, keep the rest of your face more neutral. If you've already bought it, experiment with it on a day you're not going out or right before you take a shower. If you haven't, I'd start with a more subtle peach shade before trying orange.

It's a trend. Forget about it, and pocket the cash. Few makeup lines make orange shadow, so the makeup artist was probably under pressure to sell as much of a new colour as possible.
Try something more classic and pretty, like taupe, light brown, gold, and purple eyeshadow with dark brown mascara instead.

Sounds great if you are a Florida Gator or a Tennessee Volunteer. and it is during a football game. Otherwise, it is gross. She is trying to make you look ugly. Go somewhere else. Buy some inexpensive make up and apply it yourself until you like what you see.
Navy blue eyeliner, black mascara and several shades of dark to light blue eyeshadow would probably look good. Rose colors also should look good.

i think a def no no. i would never team blue with orange clothes so i dont think blue eyes with orange eyeshadow would look too good. invest in colour contact lenses ie hazel that would look fantastic with orange shadow.

I don't think it would look too good, I agree with the previous answerers, it seems like you're trying a little too hard.

not just anybody.it depends on who u are,your style of fashion, your personality,where u are goin with this makeup. it may look good on someone but it wont look good in just everybody with blue eyes.perhaps if u r thinking of changing your style and fashion or if you are attending a halloween party you might look good.

I wouldnt suggest orange eyeshadow for any eye color. Not my thing. It would clash, try something more subtle.

as long as it is kind of settle and doesnt pop out too much .. also if u found one w/ a gold flac (or light tint/ shimmer) in it it would look pretty w/ ur eyes
