Re: spinoff- green eyed girls
When I do wear eye makeup, I like the way purplish colors look.

in all honesty, nothing brings out the green in my eyes more than coloring my hair brown! my eyes pop more!

Re: spinoff- green eyed girls
I usually use a set of greens from Ulta - shimmery gold, bright green, and an olive to tone it down. (dark olive green eyeliner and black mascara)
or sometimes when I'm casual, I'll do shimmery browns. (brown eyeliner and black mascara)
when I'm getting dressed a little nicer, I'll do pinks and plums. (black eyeliner, blended to be very very soft/subtle and black mascara)

Re: spinoff- green eyed girls
As a green-eyed lady and a former art teacher, it is always suggested to use the color that is opposite on the color wheel. PURPLE or VIOLET is opposite of green and is a complementary color. I use these colors and it looks stunning.

I use purples too. I have a burnt sienna shade that looks awesome too. Sometimes I tone it down and stick with browns as well. I also wear brown/black eyeliner and black mascara

Re: spinoff- green eyed girls
I use MAC Jest, Soft Matte Brown, Ploof
I just recently experimented with some orangey shades from MAC, I found it's nice for an evening look, but not for everyday.
I never thought about using purples I'll have to try!

Re: spinoff- green eyed girls
i wear mostly browns.. now that im reading this post i might change it up a bit!
I wear browns and plums and if I am wearing something black I wear light and dark silvers and shade my eyelids. My sister is a makeup artist so she showed me how to apply my eye makeup like the professionals. I use whatever brands she brings home from the Salon. Mostly Trucco
