What shades of eyeshadow look good against pale skin?

I have really pale white skin (like Nicola Roberts). What shades of eyeshadow do you think look good against it?


I have dark blue eyes too if that helps!


Thank you :)|||purple or blue love:)|||for everyday eyeshadow deffinately a shimmery lavender, this will really enhance the luminosity of your skin and your eyes. muted gold/beige/champagne color should look good as well.





For a more dramatic look go for Metallic silver, this will really make your eyes POP, and since you have been blessed with porcelain skin, you are one of the people who can really pull of a silver and rock it. Try black for the darker bit of the smokey eye, dark purple or navy blue.





definitely get some shimmer (or even some glitter) in there so it doesnt wash out your skin and make it look pasty. Plus it will really make your eyes stand out.





Hope that helps:)|||I have pale white skin and blue eyes too. I find that very dark blues look pretty. Avoid anything too sparkly or else it will make you look washed out. Light shimmery greys look good and for the daytime you could use a very pale brown/beige/gold.





Here are some links for some of eyeshadows I use that look good with pale skin and blue eyes:

This is great for creating lots of different looks. You can blend the shades to create a smokey eye look for the evening or you can use them on their own for a daytime look. For around 拢16 they seem expensive but you do get 4 colours so it works out about around 拢4 per shade which it great value.

In the daytime I use that eyeshadow in the shade %26#039;Beige Shimmer%26#039;. The shade %26#039;Foxy%26#039; would also look pretty with your colouring.|||Instead of black, smoky brown or taupe is nicer on pale skin. Otherwise, I think it mostly depends on your complexion. Does it tend toward the warmer side, often with auburn hair and ivory freckled skin like me, (in which case run, don%26#039;t walk, from pink. Bronze, brown, spruce, olive and *some* purples look great though)? Or are you more of a cool type? That soft and delicate look, with its ivory or soft beige skin tone, is good with grey, blue-grey,soft teal, slate blue, plum or cocoa. Soft pink, lemon yellow or champagne is good for highlighter.





Good luck. Isn%26#039;t this fun?|||i have reallllly pale skin too :)


i wear golden colours and browns,


looks wonderful :) if you want something customized to your skin exactly,


take a trip to the mall and ask a lady at the make-up counter what she thinks.


they%26#039;ll do your make-up for free with the right shades while teaching


you how to apply it on your own (:


they%26#039;re professionals; they know what colours look good on what skintones with what eye colours.


and plus, it%26#039;s free and fun :D hahah. good luck :]|||Browns, greys and plums would look really pretty. Don%26#039;t over do it though, less is more :) Also, curl your lashes and put on a coat of mascara, it%26#039;ll look great all together.|||i would go with a Natural look


lots of browns for any everyday Look





or some light gray to black to bring out the colors in your eyes


since they are blue





not to heavy on the black, just enough|||It also depends on your hair colour, but greys, blues and browns (if you have brown hair) would look nice. It also depends on your style. If you are young and where a lot of bright or bold clothes, metallic or bright colours would show your eyes off.|||go for neutrals, bronzes, charcoals, greys , whites, light greens and purples also metallics and shimmers.





AVOID colours like pinks, aqua/teals and olive greens and excessive blacks|||Browns, greys, golds, rusty peaches, or plum colors. Just have fun and play with it. See what looks best. Good luck. : )








Btw, never use blue. It dulls out your color. But it%26#039;s your choice. Use it at your own risk.|||Depends on the tones in your skin. Mine is kind of mediterranean and browns and golds with some autumnal greens suit me. Fair skin, blues, light greens and even pinks (as long as you%26#039;re not too ruddy).


so try stuff and see.|||rather than choose good colours against pale skin, always choose an eyeshadow that shows up your eyes, choose something graey, violet, taupe, purple or even dark blue!





i find lashings of eyeliner bring out the colours more....|||Everything except pinky wine-y colours :D yoho|||Darkdarkdark purple. Like almost black, but still noticeably purple.|||yeah i agree with the smokey eyes check out pictures of kim kardashian maybe even pastelle colors.|||black...smoky effect
