Make-up colors for brown-red hair and slate-gray eyes?!?

bookworm12

Whenever I wear makeup, especially eye-shadow, it makes the skin under my eyes look like it doesn't match the rest of my skin.

It's really difficult for me to find colors that accentuate my eyes without making the skin under them look gray/blue, too. No good going around looking like I have a permanent bruised eye!

If I wear the wrong shade of pink eye-shadow, it clashes with my hair, too...

Any suggestions?

Thank you! :)

Answer
Use copper tinged lipstick.
Use copper shade of blush.
Green eyeshadow is beautiful for brown-red hair.
Place a small amount of green eyeliner on your bottom eyelid.
You could go extreme by using a eggshell color as well.
Copper eyeshadow is also very, very attractive. It is my favorite shade to mix and blend, makes the eyes look good, no matter what color.
Your color doesn't have to actually match the rest of your skin. Just go head and draw attention to your eyes.

Slate-gray eyes - most people would suggest going with light blues or light grays, but I believe you probably have already done that.
I have a brown eye and a blue eye, really, so I quit worrying about the colors a long time ago.
Don't be afraid to experiment. Yes, by all means, stay away from pink for your blush. Agree with you about that.

I am sure you will get an answer from hairdresser (a name on line) who will give you all sorts of tips but you cannot email her and she claims to be an expert, so....just letting you know.

Will my daughter have red hair? What color eyes?

Laniah

My husband had red/orange hair and eyes that change from green/hazel/blue, I have light brown/blonde and light blue eyes. But all of my fully biological sisters have some kind of red hair (red red, orange, strawberry). I want to know how likely it is that my daughter has red hair and what is the plausable eye color?

Answer
You carry the recessive gene for red hair, and a dominant blonde. Your husband carries two recessive for red hair, so there is a 50/50 chance of her having red hair. As for eyes, his are likely hazel with a different varient, you have double recessive light blue, so there is a very low chance of blue eyes, more likely to be Hazel.

What colour eyes are most common for people with red hair?

Q. In general, what colour eyes are the most common for a red haired person? I'm talking about in real life, not in the media. Thanks.

Answer
Blue, hazel, brown,green. My neice's husband is red haired and brown eyed. I knew a nun who had red hair and brown eyes. It isn't all that unusual. Too many people have stereotypes in mind.

Since green is the national color of Ireland, all too many people have a silly notion that Irish have red hair and green eyes. Often times romantic novelist leave that impression when they write about a pretty Irish lass with red hair and green eyes, just like a Christmas tree. Good Grief! I was born with red hair and blue eyes. Now my hair lightened up as I grew older.

I am a photographer, and my favorite model is my wife. She is a natural blonde, but of late I have been buyng her lots of new clothes, sexy stuff, that she loves dressing up in for me. She also started wearing wigs with the clothes I buy for her to wear when we can do a shoot. She has found this gorgeous long red wig that looks fantastic on her, but I don't know what color eyeshade and such she should wear to really make those beautiful green eyes stand out. Can anyone offer some suggestions?

Answer
Black or white eye shadow

Black and white, both are versatile colours that go well with just about any colour. Therefore, they will go well green eye colour also. These colours will also not clash with your red hair. So, you will assure a beautiful appearance without any mismatches.

You can go for black, white or any varying shades of these colours. For example, you can also select dark or light grey. It will also suit well and enhance your appearance.

Brown eye shadow

This is one other colour that suits your eye colour as well as your hair colour. It will clash neither with your green eyes nor with your red hair. It will all match perfectly and you can enjoy your beauty. It will simply blend in.

Although dark brown works just fine, you can go for a medium brown to enhance your look even more. However, you should avoid a very light shade of brown because it does not go so well with your flaming red hair.

Green eye shadow

This is the colour of your eyes. Your eyes complement your hair, and so your eye shadow will complement your hair, as well as your eyes. Although you might have heard that you should avoid wearing the same shade of eye shadow as your eyes, you can forget that rule as far as green is concerned. This is one colour that you can easily get away with doing this.

You can choose a shade lighter or darker than your eye colour. However, beware of going too light or too dark.

Colours to avoid

You should avoid eye shadow colours like pink, especially the bright and dark shades, blue and purple. Although purple goes well enough with green eyes, it tends to clash with the red hair. Therefore, it is best to avoid it.

Genetics hair and eye color?

shade

If one parent has brown hair and brown eyes, and the other parent has blonde hair and blue eyes, can their child have red hair and blue eyes?

Answer
Yes this is possible. One of the parents can have the Dominant brown hair gene and the Recessive red hair gene, and have the Dominant brown eye gene and the Recessive blue eye gene. While the other parent can contain the Blonde hair gene (which could be dominant) and the recessive red hair gene (which could mix to make a strawberry blonde), and both blue eye genes.

The child would have 2 red hair genes (possibly a red and a blond), and 2 blue eye genes.!

Always curl lashes before applying mascara. You can actually curl lashes AFTER mascara is applied, as long as your mascara is dried (a good tip to know if you want to curl your lashes later in the day without removing your mascara).

Don't forget your bottom lashes. For years I avoided mascara on them until a makeup expert showed me how much mascara on my lower lashes really make my eyes pop. I rarely go without now. To apply mascara on lower lashes, hold the brush vertically, then sweep it back and forth.

Individual false lashes are exotic, gorgeous and can look natural if applied correctly. Large cities offer "lash bars" in the hottest department stores. If they're too long, you can trim them with scissors.

For a doe-eyed, seductive look lining your lower lids with a creamy white eye pencil.

White liner may sound odd, but it really opens up the eye. You can also try putting it on the inside corner of both your upper and your lower lids.

Another way to open up eyes is to skip the white eyeliner and opt instead for a platinum highlighter. Dot along the browbone, then blend in. Apply highlighter at the inner corners of your eyes. Follow with eye shadow.

Make sure your brows are manicured. Until you get your brows professionally waxed, tweezed or threaded, you won't realize how much they affect the rest of your face. Cleaning up your brow line of stray hairs, adding a slight arch and filling in sparse spots are key to making eyes look much larger.

I find once you get a professional brow job, you can do it yourself for a few months using the pro job as a "map" of where to tweeze. To keep brows in place, try a clear eyebrow gel, clear mascara or just spritz a bit of hairspray onto an old toothbrush and brush brows in perfect place.
--------------------------------------â¦
If you are Asian and have small eyes like me, you probably have tried different methods to make your eyes look larger. What makes it more of a reason to do so is if you also have single eyelids. This is because most Asians have more of a fatty deposit in the area between their eyebrows and their eyelids. I have found that there a few different tricks you can do to create a look that will make your eyes appear more large and dramatic.

First, line your eyes with a waterproof or long lasting eyeliner preferably in black, which creates a more dramatic look. You will want to line the rims of your eyes (the inside portion of eye above the bottom lashes and the portion of the eye below the top lashes). You could either use an eye pencil or a liquid eyeliner. I have found that with a liquid eyeliner it is easier to line the top portion of the inner rim of your eye, but can be more difficult when lining the portion above your top lashes and the inner rim portion of your bottom lashes unless you have continuous practice and maintain a steady hand. An eye pencil is much easier to use, but may not be as bold as liquid eyeliner if you are looking for a more dramatic look.

Next, use a lengthening and volumizing mascara in the darkest color available and apply as many coats necessary or desired to create a more dramatic look. I have noticed that if you have sparse lashes there really is no need to apply mascara on your bottom lashes since there are so few anyway and the eyeliner will have already filled in the effect. Also, I noticed that if you let your lashes dry in between every few coats, the dramatic look will build more quickly and effectively instead of piling one coat after another continuously and you end up having those awful "spider leg" looking lashes.

What is your favorite color for these things?

toomuchdis

Would just like to know what your favorite hair color, eye color, and color are.
My favorite color is actually emerald green. My favorite hair color is red hair. And, my favorite eye color is green, green blue, or amber.

Answer
Hair: anything dark, so brown or black. There should be a contrast between skin color and hair color.
And hair should always, always, ALWAYS be darker than skin. Please no fake orange tans with dyed bleach blonde hair. God didn't mess up when he gave us our natural hair color.

Eyes: Any color out of the ordinary. I find light brown or amber eyes attractive, but not the dull, muddy brown. I'm not a big fan of blue either, unless they are piercing and intense. Baby blues don't catch my attention. Green, gray, and anything else in between is perfect.

And my favorite color in general is maroon, or burgundy. It is cousins with purple but more closely resembles red. I love wearing this color, painting it on my nails, etc. It is sophisticated and elegant. This color compliments almost anybody.
