    Default green eyes, funky eyeshadow?

    fair skin, red hair, green eyes... i always see those awesome ads like for MAC with the wild color eyeshadows but i never think they'll work for me... specific colors to use?

    You could go for a really cool color like purple or bright blue, but then wet an angled make up brush and then swipe it on like eyeliner on the top lid ! I think that would look really good for green eyes and red hair !

    i have red hair and green eyes & i usually use a brown shadow with a deep purple over it.

    if you dampen the brush before putting on the purple, it looks really cool.

    A deep plum color would work wonders. Just make sure it's not too red, you want more of a blue undertone to it. Even something as simple as Cover Girl Eye Enhancers #455 "Purple Pop" or #525 "Forever Fig".
    If you want to spend more... Dior 2 color shadow #885 "Purple Look", Dior 5 color #809 "Petal Shine", #290 "Sweet Illusion".
    MAC: Single shadow "Beauty Marked" or "Nocturnelle".

    Hope that helps!

    I think you should try a light purple or lilac color.

    Using too light of a color on fair skin will just make you look washed out. Everyone needs that hint of defintion.

    Any type of smokey eyes will look great on you... donīt be afraid to use different colors. You can use green, you just have to blend the colors in the right way

    OBS! make sure that you blush is NOT a bronzer or has a brown shade! Your face will look "dirty" in a way if you get me. Use pink blushes. And for the eyes, redheads don't suite any color really. I think you should go for purple, and not a cold one, try to find a more plumbery one, like make-up stores "Dramatic". And of course, green always works well, but maybe your tired of that. Silver is an good option, but maybe not for a daily makeup... Good Luck (Y)
