Blue-toned shades. I'm convinced that they clash with my skin tone, and look strange with the blue in my eyes.

I don't use bright colors. I stay in the neutrals and some shades of purple and pink that are subtle and neutral. I don't use shimmer/glitter/pearlized shadows during the day -- I go matte. I stay clear from white (only on the corners). It makes me look ashy and horrendous with my medium skin tone.

Almost everything in the brown spectrum. I wear gold just cause I love it...but I can't really wear browns or coppers or bronzes on my eyes cause it looks like I have black eye or sallow skin or something.

Plummy colors! They always make me look like i have a black eye

hooker blue eyeshadow :) lol

Since I have a warm skintone and cool eyes I should be able to rock most colours.. But I've never looked good with blues, pinks or greens on my eyes or corals and peaches on my lips, it just doesn't work :/

brown for the lips

eyeshadows: certain pinks and purples that make me look tired or like i have just been bawling my eyes out. the silvers that oxidize weird on my skin and turn blueish on me....(i love bluish silvers, but when i want silver, i want silver, goddamnit!) lol. bold oranges and bright yellows and golds that are tooo warm scare me, i dont think they look right on my skintone. and orangey bronzes!!! color looks lovely in the pain, but then when i go to wear it, it looks orange and looks terrible!!!! and for lipcolors: i found out that i cannot wear corals that are more on the orange side....ooooo nooooo. last summer i ordered NYX round lipstick in Margarita (i think?) and when i got it i looked at it, gasped (it really is a pretty color, just not on me), tried it on, and gasped some more.

blue (unless there's enough gold in it), steel blue, slate, greyish muted purples, true purples...they all make me look sickly or bruised. Olive toned skin just doesn't work well with those colours, for me anyways. Oh and brown lips. Did that, not a good look, even 17 years ago!

Yes, Green. I can't seem to ever make it work with my skin color [NW45] for some reason. I have been looking around more and I think I need to go darker in shade if I want to make it happen. Greens are so pretty, especially with brown, for that earthy look with a touch of color. I have to figure it out!

pink eyeshadow

Red anywhere near the eyes.

Unfortunately, blue eyeshadows make me look like a victim of domestic violence. No matter what the application method.

For my lips I try to stay away from pinks. I feel like they will make me look like a drag queen :/ For the eyes I really don't stay away from anything.

I avoid any bright colors, especially bright blue (too 80's). I prefer subtle makeup colors. I don't own any red lipsticks. I find that I look best in peach, coral or bronze shades. For some reason, I can also pull off plums. I think it's because my hair and eye color are both dark brown.

Honestly, not really. Sure, there are some eye shadows that I own that don't look amazing on my skin alone, but when combined with others for a custom shade or when blended next to other colours, they look fine. I find that cooler shades (mostly cooler blues and cooler greens) aren't as flattering on my semi-warm skin tone. I generally avoid true reds on my eyes though, since I don't really like red eyeshadows. I love pinks though - even though my eyelids are naturally discoloured and slightly red, I adore wearing pinks. On my lips, unless it's a gloss, I'd only stay away from colours that don't match my complexion, because it's very difficult to pull off a lipstick that is truly wrong for your complexion.

Eyeshadow-wise: yellow, orange, gold, bronze, red. Lips: orange, gold, brown.

Pinks without a doubt. My college yearbook photo was almost a disaster bc of pink shadow. I had just started wearing makeup and didn't know any better lol.

Yellow/orange eyeshadows! Dark brown lips.

I try to avoid things with red dye on my eyes, b/c I'm allergic. I love pink's and purples, so.........I limit my exposure. Going blind for the cost of beauty, lol.

Reddish eyeshadows, since it just looks odd next to my red hair. They probably would have worked back when I was a blonde. And I'm not a big fan of bright pink lips, although I can do them if they're more of a transparent gloss.

1. black or dark eyeliner on the lower lash line 2. dark lips 3. brown eyeshadows that have red undertones

I haven't really ventured into wearing bright eyemakeup in public - other than when I was on vacation. Due to work, I tend to stick to neutrals but I hope to start wearing brighter colours when I'm off duty.. Regardless, I'll probably still stay away from reds and baby blue or any neon colours for that matter on my eyes. As for lipsticks, I tend to stay away from dark lips.

Brown around my blue eyes is fab, but I don't like the way it looks on my lips. The exception is MAC's Stay In Touch lipstick.

i can NEVER wear black lipstick. even for halloween. it just looks weird.

Lips I don't like to be too avante garde unless for a special occasion. On my lids I don't like muddy reds and yellows they make me look dead or on drugs lol

I don't wear bright blues on my eyes... just Dark Navy (like Deep Truth or Prussian) with neutrals. Makes me look unclassy when I do.

Warm browns are not flattering on my eyes. I like neutrals, but love color--sheer washes of bright color. Anything goes on lips. Blush is mid-toned neutrals, leaning slightly warm or cool. Dislike corals & pinks on cheeks just because it's not the look I go for.

I avoid pale lilac/pink, orange, yellow on eyes. For lips, I avoid really pale or dark lip color.

Yellow, Orange, and Red on the eyes! I usually don't wear Blues or Greens either, but I wouldn't say I avoid them (I just don't know how to wear them!)

80% of the blue color family :( im blond so blue has a tendency to look trampy on me.

Blue eyeshadow, it clashes with my eye color. And I love corals but have difficulty with coral lipstick, it often just looks too orange on me.

dark colored lips, such as a deep plum or black. ick!

oh yes! I am waaaay to pale to pull of black. And I don't like crazy brights, esp orange, yellow, blue - i dont think those colors flatter me at all. and any bright pinks or red toned plums make me look sick or bruised. Sometimes i wish i had darker coloring....

I stay away from oranges and yellows and blues. I can wear the coral family only when I have a tan but I trying to stay away from the sun due to all the damage it causes. I limit myself to pinky/mauve, purples and browns. Of coarse "the smokey eye" is always in. I am going to try to venture out and try some greens. Have a great day!!

Not the biggest fan of bright greens on me...I'm super pale with dark hair...those kinda greens make me look sickly.

I have a hard time wearing certain pinks and blues...everything else i can pretty much do anything else but pinks especially...I always look like i am sick when i put pink on :(

Very cool pale/pastel pinks on my lips. There are some other colors I just haven't tried (super dark vampy lips, for example) but the pastel pinks are the only ones I can't wear. Make me look green.

I won't wear blue eyeshadow. I have blue eyes so I know it's always recommended, but it just looks terrible on me.

I mostly avoid things that are pastel.

mustard yellow is very difficult for me, as is burnt orange. both look very unnatural and even dirty against my skin tone. anything with too much of a brown tint on my lips seems to just suck the colour right out of my face and make me look sick.

yellow, orange, green (except brown-green), blue (except dark navy blue)

RED! the only color I cant stand!!!

I love to experiment with all kinds of colors of eyeshadow, but as far as using lipstick/lipgloss...that's another story! I find only shades of pink or nude colors and the occasional bright red lip suit me. I really can't pull off orangey or purple lips.

Yellows and oranges -- they look horrible on me! Reds don't look good on me either -- I am very cool toned, so these colours just don't work on me.

Honestly? None! Granted, some are bound to be more flattering than others but I love all colours way too much not to use them. :-)

i personally cant stand blue eyeshadow (though Christines last post was the MOST gorgeous blue shadow work ive ever seen) but yeah, generally blues, steel blue, pale blue. i LOVE orange on the cheeks and eyes, however HATE it on lips. more then anything! :D

orange tones. I dont look good in orange tones. If I want to be on the wild side I will wear orange itself but stay away from anything with orange tones other wise.

corals and yellows, very nude nudes and pale pinks in lip colors

But Christine you have warm toned skin, near-black hair and your eyes look dark from far away so a golden mustard yellow on the eyes and definitely an orange lipstick or gloss would look good on you.
