Hiya :) I ordered the Naked 3 last night. I was just wondering if you think It will be ok for me? In the past I've always stayed away from pink eyeshadows because I thought it would bring out the pink tones in my skin. It just looked so pretty and I already have the first two so I wanted to carry on the collection. If you have any photos of pink shadow looks for me to try when it arrives that would also be appreciated. Thanks everyone! X.

Honestly I feel the same! I've never tried pink lips or eyes because of my red hair. I wish I could help but you're not alone haha.

I actually like pink lips!! But like an antique rose pink not in your face pink. I can remember my mum when I was younger telling me that pink and purple eyeshadows made your eyes look sore and bruised which I see where she's coming from but I actually love purple eyeshadow. Maybe because they are more subtle shades of pink it will be ok. Not as if its disco pink haha. We will see!

Yeah I totally agree! I'm sure it depends on your skin tone too. I hope you like it!

I would say your best bet may be to go swatch it in store. I tired googling red hair with pink makeup but that didn't go so well.

Hmm I think if you apply it right then you can make it look good. I do agree that pinks and certain shades of purple can make your eyes look bruised or irritated. I have very pale skin and I personally love using bright hot pinks as a very small pop of colour on my eyelid, but I always make sure to blend it well with other colours and it looks very nice. I find that blending it with a darker more saturated colour works very well. I find lighter pinks tend to make your eyes look irritated. It just depends on how you apply it, I'll post some pictures (:

I love gold or rose pinks. I just bought naked 3 I think it will be perfect for redheads.

I am a pale red head and I bought the naked 3 and I love it! it's neutral with a hint of pink so it's not overly pink at all! (:

Ok I'll stop worrying about it and just enjoy it. I think a lot of the old 'colour wheel' theories are going out of the window these days anyway. So long as I my foundation is done properly It will be fine. Should arrive in the post in a couple of days :)

I think color theory can still apply, but there's wiggle room. It might bring out your natural pinks, but in a positive way, making your face warm, and inviting. I think it would flatter you just fine- plus there are rose golds, dusky pinks, and mauves, not straight up pink. If there's a too pink shade, just use sparingly or showcase it as a pop of color.
