Eye shadow help

teelobhain · Dec 3rd, 2007, 11:06 PM

Which colors would look good on a royal blue and red shalwar kameez which have goldenish kaam on the shirt?

I was thinking of going for a smokey look - contrast blue and black
or brown and golden or pink with a touch of blue which would make the shade look natural and it would be matching as well or i can just go for bronze/golden and put some blue on it...i dont want to go all blue and red/maroon shade..
any other suggestions...please.. anyone.

brownish/golden eyes with peachy pink lipgloss...if u gotta do matching, do red nails

^ bingo! too matchy-matchy and it looks like clown makeup. and i'd say, keep the nails short if you're going to do red.... IMHO nothing is more 80's than long talons painted fire engine red. *shudder* :P

SGC: i dont have long nails - mine dont grow after a certain length and if i force them to then they show me what they are capable of doing i.e. they chip and break

.
Thanks guys..

I would do smokey eyes with a hint of blue and red with gold on the inside v-shape of eyes and nude lips.

^Sounds good...if i get the time to do it, i'll post it here..

chanda_kh · Dec 8th, 2007, 03:26 PM

this is what i did...something similar to what you were talking about..

teelobhain · Dec 10th, 2007, 05:27 PM

^ This is pretty what you have done it looks all glittery yet very natural - something that i would prefer i.e. subtle look..

chanda_kh · Dec 14th, 2007, 03:55 PM

yeah...i cant do the heavy stuff...makes me look like a clown...plus...black liner/makeup is soooo 80's

my sister in law wore red and blue lengha on her wedding, her eye makeup was mostly dark brown with hints of blue and red, very subtle but very visible as well..her lipstick wasn't RED but reddish..so it wasn't the clowny matchy-matchy, but rather complementing her features..

teelobhain · Dec 16th, 2007, 05:45 PM

^ How did she do that? maybe i can try that as well.

Sara516 · Dec 16th, 2007, 05:58 PM

Cover u're entire eye-lid with ink blue (with glitter if it's formal) and close to the lash line smudge black shadow and blend well...then trace u're bottom lashes with the same and line u're eyes with dark/ink blue pencil. You'll get u're "smokey-eyed" look and color to go with u're dress =)
