Truly green eyes are a rarity, so if you've got them, or even if you just wear green-colored contacts, you'll want to flaunt them. To make green eyes stand out, use palettes of colors that naturally complement greens, such as purples, pinks and browns. Blues and greens are not advisable as they don't provide enough contrast to already-green eyes.

Things You'll Need
Eye shadows (purples, pinks and browns)
Eyeliner (black, brown or purple), liquid or pencil
Apply a shade of brown to your eyelids for the base color. Brown naturally contrasts green, whether it's dark or light, and it's a neutral color that blends well with many other accent colors. For a more dramatic look, use a darker shade of brown.

Apply a purple or pink shade to the creases of your eyelids for the contour shade. Blend the contour shadow out to the edges of your eyes and slightly above the crease. This should be your darkest and brightest color because it's meant to accent your green eyes.

Apply a highlighting shade, such as white, pale pink or lavender to the area just under your brow bone and to the inside corner of your eyelid. This adds a little brightness.

Line both your upper and lower lids with black, brown or purple eyeliner depending on the color scheme you selected for your eye shadows. Liquid liner provides the greatest contrast making your green eyes really burst with color. The heavier and darker the line, the more your green eyes will stand out. Add two coats of black mascara to your eyelashes to finish the look.
