Hi! I was wondering what colors might be best for me. I have dark brown hair, pale skin and brown eyes. Lips, lids and any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated :-)

I think that bright colours could contrast really well with your hair, and if applied right can look stunning. And theres so much choice especialy in big department stores like hours of fraiser ect. However if you dont want to go for such a bold look, just go for metalic browns, and rich golds.
These would look great with pale skin tones, and the fact that you have brown eyes and hair would work amazingly well. Lips Id also go for a deep colour, such as a near reddy brown, cause if the colours too pale then it will wash out your face.
However if you want a REAL drastic look that can work well on many people, then go for shimmery brown/golden eyes, and a deep rich red. With a pale skin tone, and white teeth, you cant go wrong.HOLLYWOOD GLAM!!

I know this is a 7 year old thread, but I am extremely pale, I have brown eyes and black to brown hair. I find the best colors on me are what would be good for someone with green eyes. I use Shiseido I-00 foundation, dark grey or brown eye-liner, very light peach, off-white, or lavendar shadows, and peach or pink lipstick. If I go with red lipsick, use merle norman's popsicle red. Be careful of super dark or bright colors or else you will look like a clown.

For eyeshadow colors, the best is certainly pinks/salmons when you have brown eyes. They don't have to be bright, but colors like those look really good. Lips you could do anything, but if you have noticeable colors on your eyes you should keep them simple, with just a light gloss.

Bronzes, golds and brown shades for everything. I am that sort of colouring! Emphasis your eyes and eyebrows - soft blush, and a nice corally, copper lipstick works too. Its all about trial and error really - best thing is to go to a large department store and get yourself made up by different cosmetic counters. They overdo it - but it will give you some ideas.

Violets and Lilacs will make your brown eyes "pop". Have a look at the new Bobbi Brown colour palette.

light browns, beige, dark browns on eyes. Peach or plum colors for cheeks. Mauve, Cocoas, and Caramel colors for lips. Black or Black/Brown mascara with black eyeliner will work for you as well.
