Only special occasions ;)</p> <p>I don't have a purple eyeshadow (I think I'll buy another cheap one to experiment), but I think I can use a bronze one. Thanks for the idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-154063 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:51:46 +0000 Beth 154063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to be the lone ranger here and say use it very sparingly and possibly only for a night out. You have the most gorgeous green eyes and fab eyebrows, but the first thing I see is the eyeshadow, not your eyes.</p> <p>I'd love to see you in muted purple or bronzes to bring out your eye color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-154060 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:38:41 +0000 Louise 154060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW that looks fantastic x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-154045 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:23:20 +0000 Itari 154045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, with a round, soft brush. There is a bit of rosy beige and pale green as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-154038 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:19:54 +0000 yublocka 154038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks absolutely incredible to me!!! How did you apply it? With a brush or ??? I wouldn't know where to start. It looks absolutely knock-out with your new hair too!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-154032 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:04:54 +0000 Itari 154032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I can show it to you. I don't feel well, but somehow I managed to take a photo. I used some lighter shades to tone down the bright blue:<br /> <a href="http://s867.photobucket.com/albums/ab233/fouloleitari/ylf/?action=view&#038;current=0011.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s867.photobucket.com/al.....t=0011.jpg</a></p> <p>(password: ylf2010) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-154023 Sun, 09 May 2010 12:47:01 +0000 Louise 154023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Use the blue as an eyeliner, the beautician used something very similar on me yesterday x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-153943 Sun, 09 May 2010 02:22:29 +0000 Jenava 153943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to suggest using as a liner as well, or maybe smudge a tiny bit in the crease of your eye, over a different, more subtle, shade of blue and then blend together to get that gradient look?</p> <p>I have just started to wear eyeshadows (yes, I am in my 30s!). I find a lot of youtube videos are very helpful. Maybe you could search for one on how to use bright eyeshadow... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-153933 Sun, 09 May 2010 02:02:42 +0000 marianna 153933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like rae, occasionally I will use blue eyeshadow as eyeliner. I layer it over black eyeliner and it looks really pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-153890 Sun, 09 May 2010 00:12:54 +0000 rae 153890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i find it fun to use bright shadows as an eyeliner sometimes... it still adds color, but prevents me from looking clownish when I inevitably do it wrong. Not that YOU would do it wrong, but maybe try it out this way at first, until you feel more comfortable? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-153863 Sat, 08 May 2010 23:27:33 +0000 cciele 153863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Mac; play around with it! Try a light wash by using a wet brush, or use it over other colors.</p> <p>However, if you are not comfortable wearing make-up in general, I'd stick with neutrals. Maybe a shimmery khaki/olive would be pretty on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-153839 Sat, 08 May 2010 22:26:23 +0000 Mac 153839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hard to judge without seeing it on you BUT I have a few frickin' bright eyeshadows that I use from time to time and with a careful hand. I have a super-bright blue that I sometimes use when I do a "smoky eye" to add a bit of colour to an otherwise dark and sombre makeup look. </p> <p>If it was cheap, why not keep it and experiment with it. If it doesn't suit you, you'll know to avoid buying these kinds of colours in the future. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeshadow-should-i-keep-it#post-153836 Sat, 08 May 2010 22:22:25 +0000 Itari 153836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, I completely forgot.</p> <p>I bought a Rimmel Colour Rush Mono eyeshadow because it was very cheap - exactly this one: <a href="http://www.rimmellondon.com/UK/products/eyes/product.aspx?id=360" rel="nofollow">http://www.rimmellondon.com/UK.....spx?id=360</a></p> <p>...yes, Envy - that blue one (the green crown was just a very thin layer so now it's gone). I can't post a picture right now, but I wouldn't probably use the eyeshadow once more. It's SO FREAKIN BLUE. I feel like a peacock </p>
