Saying "green eyes", we are too general, because there are many different shades. Makeup artists distinguish four types of green eyes, for each of which is appropriate its own special make-up.
Type 1. Charming jade
The jade color is the darkest in the green range. Deep and rich, this shade resembles the green of the forest.
Color of shadows for green eyes of a jade hue can be any, as well as color of a liner. Possessors of such eyes can not be afraid of a dark scale - a rich makeup looks especially advantageous for them. As an evening option, you can choose shades of graphite or dark brown color. In the daytime the charm and bottomlessness of the jade eyes gracefully accentuated the classic black arrows.
Type 2. Sea wave
Owners of this color are often called blue-eyed - it is. Depending on the color of the clothes and make-up, this type of eyes may appear gently green or gray-blue. The palette of shadows for green aqua eyes includes any medium and medium-light shades. And only representatives of this type can use blue or blue shadows.
If you draw the lower eyelid with a pencil in the color of the sea wave, you can favorably emphasize the natural bottomlessness of the eyes. Varying the shades from blue to green, you can visually change the color of the eyes, misleading others. But this is only to our advantage! Let them guess: green eyes or not?
Type 3. Cat's Eye
The medium-green tint of the eyes with pale or golden glimpses creates a fragile and shy image of their possessor. That is why shades of shadows for green eyes of such a "cat's" type should not be bright and saturated. Creating an image, you should focus on the color of the iris - the shadows should be lighter than it, otherwise the illusion of a heavy and tired look will be created. Preferred pastel colors and maximum naturalness.
Type 4. Mystical Gray
A soft green hue with a gray glint is a very moody type of eyes. Pick up their makeup is not easy, and the only true way: a trial and error method. Owners of this color should categorically abandon the shadows of the dark scale (maximum - in the outer corner of the eye), giving preference to light pastel tones. As in the case of the "cat's" eye, the naturalness and minimum of the catchy lines are appropriate.
Universal makeup
All green eyes are accompanied by shades of lilac scale, which create contrast and emphasize the natural charm of green. Purple (purple, plum, purple) shadows for green eyes are good as an option for an evening makeup, but they look very elegant in daylight.
Also a universal way to shade the green eyes is the use of shadows of pastel tones - ivory, beige, gold, khaki, peach.
- Brown shadows are suitable for green eyes, especially if their owner is a brown-haired woman.
- Red-haired beauties should emphasize the color of the eyes in shades of green scale - from the color of the young foliage to the mossy-marshy.
- Blondes with green eyes are suitable for shades of light peach and brown.
Taboo for green eyes
- Blue and blue shadows look cheap and bright, suitable only for green eyes such as "sea wave".
- Silvery hues, whether it's podvodka or shadows, make the green eyes dull and faceless.
- Black color is suitable only for ladies with dark jade eyes, all the rest is better to abandon it in favor of brown.
- Pink shadows are an ambiguous option for green eyes. Referring to the purple range, pink is warm or cold and does not suit everyone - you need to look for "your" shade.
