The right colours for you....

I get asked a lot when I'm doing someone's makeup for a night out or in a makeup lesson 'what eye makeup colours suit me???'


And with the eyes, its usually whats going to make their eye colour POP!


First of all, neutral colour will always suit everyone no matter what colour your eyes are. So starting off with these colours is aways easy as you will easily find at least one pallette on a makeup counter that sells them.  These colours tend to be


Light - Mid - Dark - Cool - Warm browns


Ivory, White, Peachy


These can be worn naturally or more sophisticated depending on how you apply...


Then it gets exciting :)


If you imagine a colour chart like the one below



Find your eye colour on there (or as near to it!) and follow the chart directly across.. the colours on the opposite side will be your 'Eye popping colours'.


But as a general guideline (though there are no rules with makeup) the following applies when choosing the right shades for you -


Blue eyes look for - Brown - Red - Gold - Orange - Copper - Lilac - Grey - Plum




You can also wear warm or cool blues depending on your overall colouring


Green eyes look for - Browns - Purple - Navy Blue - Plum - Pinks - Reds - Burnt Orange

You can also wear warm or cool greens depending on your overall colouring.


Brown eyes can wear most colours but these specifically will look amazing - Black - Blue (deep will more intense) - Gold - Teal Green - Purple

You can also wear warm or cool browns depending on your overall colouring.


Hazel eyes look for - Mauve - Purple - Plum - Golds - Greens



And black will always make an eye colour pop... if you aren't brave enough to wear it all over the lid use it as an eyeliner on your top or bottom lash line or in your water line.

I hope that helps some people choose the perfect shade for that night out your going on : )

See you soon! xxx

P.S I will be doing some tutorials soon, not sure if they're going to be with camera or video yet so will keep you posted!
