And for my emerald eyed beauties, green eyes can use similar shades that brown and hazel eyes use since flecks of green are found in both hazel and brown eyes.Shades of green can be used on green eyes as long as it is not an electric or bright shade of green, causing an unnatural look against the true color of the green eye.Best bets for green eyes include mocha and lavender.The lavender contrasts with the green, making your eyes more intense and dramatic.The warmer mocha color gives a natural look to compliment green eyes.For a hip look try light green and bright purple to give a finishing, modern look.
agreed with becky try some pink eyeshadow on the lid then some white eyeshadow on your inner corner of your eye and you will see that your eyes pop ! :)
I have green eyes & notice when I wear purple shadow it makes my eyes pop in pictures. I like to use purple on my lid & then a darker brown or black on my crease.
