What color eye shadow with sage green dress?

My brother is getting married this weekend and I'm one of his bridesmaids. Anyways, my dress is a sage green color, shoes are silver. However, I dont know what to do with my makeup. Particularly my eye shadow. I just dont know if you match it to the dress or will it look to over done? Help!!!


Thanks.

What color eye shadow with sage green dress?

Reply:Ummm Maroon or Purple maybe even a dark red is very pretty. I've used that kind of green with even a light pink color. Well good luck!
Reply:a pretty brown like "sun goddess" by milani from any stores like cvs or walmart or something.


and a bronze/brown eyeliner
Reply:I really think that your eye makeup should not be matched with your dress. I think it would look way too pasty if you did that.


What color are your beautiful eyes?





Bring out your soulful beauty by enhancing your eyes. Whether your eyes are big, small, round, narrow, or deep set, all eyes will be on you when you give them a touch of glamour. Doing up the eyes is a great way to play with makeup, so have fun!





* Always apply a highlight shade under the eyebrow and in the tear duct area. This creates at an open, bright-eyed look. Younger women can choose shadows or creams with shimmer; older women should stick with sheer, matte colors like vanilla. Highlight shades include: light pink, white, vanilla, gold, iridescent, and champagne.


* For a natural day look, you can stop with Step 1 before moving to eyeliner. For a little more definition or an evening look, apply an eye shadow shade across the lid and a slightly darker one in the crease. Blend well; no ‘stripes.’


* Apply a dark liner to the upper lash line of the eyes. You can use a pencil, shadow, or liquid depending your desired effect. Liner enhances your lash line to frame the eyes. The closer to the lash line, the more natural the effect.


* Mascara is a must on top lashes. If you tend to smudge the lower area when applying, skip it underneath. Curling lashes first makes a huge difference on straight lashes. Curled lashes=more drama.


* When choosing colors, use shades opposite your eye color. Contrast really makes the eyes stand out.


* Don't overdo it. If you are doing a strong or bright lip, use minimal eye makeup. For a classic look, apply the highlight shade, a taupe shadow across the lid, a dark line along the lashes and finish with mascara.


* For a sexy, smoky look on larger eyes, rim the inside with a black pencil.


* When using cream shadows apply only on the lid and not into the crease so the color does not become a creasy, greasy mess.


* Splurge on brushes. Blending is so important when using eye shadows and having good brushes makes all the difference. I buy some of my faves at art supply stores as well as makeup shops. If loose shadow falls under the eye when you are applying shadow, wipe away with a sponge dipped in a little foundation. It's the perfect eraser.
Reply:ugh. def not green. that looks rly bad. do like a smoky color, or brownish or something. not too dark. maybe w/ tiny bit of gold right near the eyelashes.

Earth tones go with that type of green.

makeup and dress.:)

Reply:Purple is a great choice to compliment green. Depending on your skin tone and eye color you can choose the correct shade to keep from looking over done or washed out. I recommend a deep purple only in the crease and a lavender on the lid. You can then highlight under your brow with a light silver or just a light cream color for definition. I also recommend using a primer to help hold the shadow in place for hours. Works great!
