thought about it last night... I cant imagine getting to a dept store with your girls is easy..SO I thought I'd throw out some recommendations...
With those beautiful blue eyes I'd like for you to find a orangy brown color...



In the ABCD colors I think a C for you is perfect. Orange and Blue are opposites on the color wheel--- and the orange will help bring out the blue...

IGNORE the directions they have posted-- too freaky Deekey...

I also like A and D but for other uses...

hear me out...



I want you to put the A color where the orange is in the below picture---
put the C color where that grey brown color is on the lid...
You can also put A up by where your brow is on the out edge above the grey brown...
and then D color can be used as a liner.
ONLY go 1/2 way across your eye lid--- with your shape eye-- doing eye liner to close to your nose-- will make your eyes look closer together... 1/2 way on the bottom as well and then smudge with q-tip.

 See how Angelina highlites with the lighter color by her brow?

I think this makes sense. Going to have to buy some to try it out and post pics. thanks. I never would have thought orange. I used to go with blue or a bronzey brownish. and always black eyeliner all the way across.   Sometimes I resent the fact that my mom never wore makeup and that I have no sisters.

I love natural colors. I would go with shades of brown. But that's just me. I am no make up artist. I don't even use eye liner on my eyes. I use my eye shadow for eye liner.

Orange is a natural color... picture the sky during sunset... when it gets that orangey brown twilight...

This is how I do my eyes. I use Almay. They make a 3 color palet depending on your eye color and instruct where to put each color.

 i use this too.  i really like the one that i have  . . . tri for hazels 103.  It has a pink a brown and a cream.  I think it looks nice and natural, perfect for when i am just going to the grocery store or running errands and don't want to look like a run down tired mom ( even though i am! lol )
