Green eyes are probably the easiest to make stand out. There are many colors that can make green eyes pop.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    To get off to a good start you need to pick colors that really make your green eyes stand out. The best colors for green eyes are copper, gold, dark purple, plum, chocolate, dark green, light green, and jade. There are also colors to avoid. Most shades of blue and pink seem to take away from your eye color and should be avoided for the most part.

  2. Step 2

    First, you should use a natural color to lightly coat your eyelid. This provides a nice base. To do this take a color such as white, or a light brown and brush lightly over your eye.

  3. Step 3

    Apply the color of your choice from the bottom of your top eyelid to the crease in your eyelid. (From your eyelashes to the top of your eye)Make sure you apply it dark towards your eyelashes and get lighter as you push the eye shadow up. Try not to make it look clumpy.

  4. Step 4

    Apply black or brown eye liner to your bottom and top eyelid. This provides a frame for your eyes.

  5. Step 5

    Apply mascara. Your finished!

Tips & Warnings
  • Don't use blue or pink eye shadow.
  • Gold is really great for an evening out! Try to use shimmer colors.
