What eye makeup would look best on these people?

ok so the first person is tan/pale with reddish/orange and extremely tight curly long hair. this person is convinced green is her color and i am completely convinced that it isn't. Is green really peoples' eye shadow color if they are red heads?





the second person is pale with medium length brown hair that has very loose natural curls and huge eye lashes





ok so what color eye shadow do you think would be best on these people and please be specific like light green or dark green. And does black eye liner and mascara look good on everybody?


So the reason for all these strange questions is i like finding make up that look good on people through experimenting on them, like myself. But unfortunately i haven't been able to see what looks the best on these people because of the lack of time. So i am leaving it up to you.





What eye makeup would look best on these people?
Black eyeliner and mascara does NOT look good on everyone. Black isn't a color that brings out colors of most eyes (except very light blue eyes.) I wouldn't recommend that color to either of you. Being fair-skinned, black would look too heavy. Use a dark brown or brown. It compliments more eye colors and you basically can never go wrong with those colors.





For the girl who is pale with orange hair, if you personally think she doesn't look good in green, odds are she doesn't. If she is insistent on going green, I can give you some advice on swaying her over to more natural, neutral colors.


First off, pale with orange haired girls look gorgeous in tans, oranges, and golds. All these colors are paired off gorgeously with green.


For her makeup, I would do this:


1. Prep eyelid with some concealer. This will make the eyeshadow show more, and will make it stay on longer.


2. Dust the entire eye (lid to brow) with a base color. The base shadow should be a very soft/light yellow.


3. Highlight the entire lid with either a gold color, or for a more natural look, a beige-tan.


4. In the entire crease and a little above, take an angled-brush and brush some burnt orange color there.


5. To create more depth, (and withhold your friends favorite color on her) put some dark green in the outer crease.


6. Finish it off with some BROWN-dark brown mascara. Black would be an over-kill. Especially for the fact that she is fair.





For the girl with pale hair with brown hair, you can do a number of things, you could even do the same look as your friend because that look compliments everyone. Or, you could do a brown casual smokey eye.


1. Prep eyelid with some concealer.


2. Dust a neutral yellow color over your entire eye (brow to lid.)


3. Put a medium brown on entire lid.


4. Put a medium-dark to dark brown in the entire crease and a little above.


5. Line entire eye with a dark brown, focusing on the outer corners.


6. Finish off with some dark brown mascara.
