Please dont judge me, i just need advice.


I would like to be a little braver with my makeup. Especially around the eye area. I keep using purple shadow around my eyes but they look like bruising. I dont want to buy every colour to finally find the right one.
Also when i think i have enough eye liner and do a double take in the mirror it looks like there is nothing there. I just need some advice, especially with the eye shadow. I like pink shadow, but but they look strange on my skin.
Thank you x

Your eyes look blue? If so, choose orange-based colors (bronze for shimmering, peach for matte) to contrast. I, personally, don't like the color orange a lot but it does make for an amazing accent color with blue (and purple too, but it seems no one but Elizabeth Taylor has lavender eyes). Pinks and purples look better with olive-toned skin and brown eyes.

I think you would look pretty if you did more of a natural look. Use light pinks and light browns

I love pink and a few times i tried to make it work. But it didn't look right. I applied it quite heavy and it was barely noticeable against my skin. But it's such a lovely colour when it works.

@Jennysubmits maybe it's the brand and not the color it's self. Highly suggest play with different brands while you try to figure out what colors work for you. All I use is Jefree star cosmetics because the pigmentation in pinks ,neons and yellows are amazing

What colour are your eyes? Research the contrasting colour to use. Mine are brown, so green and gold make my eyes stand out. Also look if its a powder or cream finish you need - depending on your skin. Eyeliner is classic.
