What is your favorite color of eyeshadow to wear? Why?

.

I love greens! There’s just something about greens that suits me from my skin tone to my eye color to my personality.

purples, teals and grays :)

Purples, greens and browns.

neutrals, oranges, golds, browns

This is hard to narrow down! I tend to navigate towards blues and have a lot of blues in my collection. And not just navy or dark blues but BRIGHT VIVID blues. However - GOLD is my favorite color to wear with everything....whether it may be a true gold - or gold glitter/flecks in the color - or a color in the gold family -

I love black. I think I pull it off well without looking "goth". Also love pink, purple, and orange.

Purples, pinks and browns are the best! I also like teals, blacks and greys.

I have dark brown eyes and my favorite eyeshadows to wear are the Green shades like Aquavert, Springtime Skipper and Humid, these are lovely together! Although, I've worn dark browns the last few days w/Femme Fi and Sugarshot as my highlighter and I am really liking this combo alot. I get the most compliments when I wear different shades of grey w/black so gosh, I guess it just depends, but to answer the question, I love greens also. :)

I like brown/gold/bronze kind of colors, because it really pops my lightblue/grey-ish eyes!

Purples, pinks, reds, golds and bronzey colors - I have green eyes and I like to make them stand out : P

I love brown, taupe and grey eyelooks. They look pretty nice with a hint of color like Juxt, Beautiful Iris or Tilt.

Cool purples & greens are my favs to wear! A shade like MAC Poison Pen purple e/s makes my blue/green eyes look more vibrant. For conservative workday looks, I revert back to cool, pale pinks, ivory & pink-taupe (LM Topaz), or slightly purp-taupe BB Fawn shimmerwash.

I love purple eyeshadows! I really like the vividness of purple eyeshadows and the different shades you can get, like pale lilacs, mid-purples and deep dark purples. I also really like blue eyeshadows a lot but I'd say that purples are my favourite :o) .

All kinds of browns, and neutrals in general.

Purples because it's great for brown eyes and my skin tone

purple or blues..I love greens very much but I never wear them to work because then I have to endure customers going oh how cute you matched your eyes to your apron....eww no so not that much of a nerd!!

hmmm my fav are blues and purples. what might suit me best are golds and browns.

I lean towards lilacs & purples but love to wear just about any color! My eyes are dark brown, so purples tend to make them look better. But I also love golds (think Go) with really dark shades (navy, plums, dark gray/black) on the outer edge & crease.

golds, oranges, red/browns, antique colors. I have a really hard time with blues/purples/greys, as I think it makes me look I got punched in the eye.

Yellows and oranges (together).. I just find that it brightens my face up! I also love white and teals together.

purple! and then neutrals and silver/gray

I absolutely love purples & greens BUT it is when i wear golds, bronze, copper & browns that i look best. Has to do with my warm-yellow skintone & brown eyes. They just suit me best.

beige or coco something natural

I think I tend to go for coral pinks, and more lighter shades :)

I love wearing purples, but anything in the bronzy metal family (gold, copper, bronze, etc) is a gorgeous shade and brings out my blue eyes, red hair, and takes the starkness out of my ivory complexion!

Golds, pinks, and purples. I have super dark brown eyes and neutral skin, so those colors look the best on me :)

Teals... It's my foolproof pick me up if I'm feeling yuck.

I used to wear strictly browns or neutrals; however, I've broken myself from that color prison! I now love purples and greens. I was scared of these colors; but, I adore them now. Blues, on the other hand, still freak me out.

You can pull off blues, as long as its a suitable shade! I'm a neutral N15 and I love to wear teals and navies as my blues. There are also silver-blues, purple blues, green-blues - just choose which one looks best and it won't seem so scary!

i've brown eyes, black hair and nc/nw15 skin, and i love taupes. not too plain but not too dramatic

Purples, purples, purples! And after that, browns with gold flecks.

Gold and anything! My eyes and skintone are perfectly suited for it!

Browns, red/browns, brownish oranges, purplish reds I have green eyes so I think these colors make my eyes pop

Love Teals and Purples. Very into "peacock" shades

Greens and purples but not together ;0)

Definitely grey and black. Anything greyscale will do. =]

So hard to choose, since I love all eyeshadows. But high up there are purples and neutrals.

all colours! i'm a real colour fanatic. but i do love my browns and greens since i'm a brown=eyed girl. though i have a soft spot for bright colours like oranges and yellows too :)

I love to wear golds and browns and purples, but i always like to buy blues and teals.

My faves are prob carbon and cranberry I often do a red smokey eye but I prob look the best in green

I find orange colours to suit me best. Coppers and golds too. I have blue eyes and a really fait skin so ...

The shadows that makes my eyes more blue is bronze, brown and gold some purlpe also.

Purples ! idk .. maybe its bcuz purples look nice on olive skin ... and theres soo many variations of purple .. i <3 it =]

Pretty much everything. Not fond of neutrals though, too boring for me. I love blues, black and forms of gold.
