What lip color do you wear with green eyeshadow? ~coral, peach, orange
What lip color do you wear with purple eyeshadow? ~pink
What lip color do you wear with blue eyeshadow? ~I don’t wear blue eyeshadow, ever. But I suppose a rosy color would look good with blue. Or a nude for a dark smokey blue look.

With green i try to find what’s closer to coral in my collection.
For purple, it changes… if I do full purple i’ll wear either a dark plum or my MAC Violetta lipstick for a “crazier” look.
And for blue, I really like to use pink with it, especially MAC Big Bow (LE from Hello Kitty collection). It always shows its blue reflects and i find this lovely. 🙂

Green: I’d probably wear a very sheer gloss so the lips look nice, but don’t outshine.

Purple: Pinks and mauves in cool tones.

Blue: I don’t know…I almost never wear blue…in fact I can’t remember the last time I wore blue shadow.

Green: nude or brown.
Purple: red, orange, mauve, pink… pretty much anything.
Blue: pink, coral, nude.
I pick lip color more based on the intensity of my eyeshadow rather than the color. So if I’m wearing a dramatic blue eye look, I’ll choose a subtle coral or nude, but if I’m wearing green just in my crease, for instance, I may wear some purple lipstick.

Candace Avatar

Green – a nude lip, or if it’s a darker foresty green, I might wear a soft pink!

With a green eye I usually wear a yellow-based pink lip or a nude/brown lip, depending on the hue of green.
With purple eyes I absolutely LOVE coral lips- the colors really complement each other well.
And With blue eyes I generally go for a bright blue-based pink lip or a light neutral pink lip- my favorite is Angel by MAC to pair with navy blue frosted lids.

Mariella Avatar

I pretty much wear the same lip colours almost all the time – shades like MAC’s Craving, Plumful or Laugh a Lot (deep rose/pink shades) or sort of browned reds like Clarin’s Redwood. Mind you, I don’t think I’ve ever done a totally green, blue or purple eye – they’re always blended with other shades that are either neutral or light.

1. coral/orange/red (e.g. MAC Vegas Volt, Guerlain Gipsy or Gil)
2. light or medium pink/purple (e.g. Guerlain Gemma, MAC Fabby)

Because for quite a few years now I’ve prefered my eyeshadow collection to have different colors but darker, jewel-toned or murkier colors for the ever fabulous smoky eyes, I have usually worn a nude liptick and sometimes nude gloss with all three of those colors.

Lipstick that goes with:

Green eyeshadow? Usually something slightly coral. Maybe Chanel’s “Confidentielle” LipStick.

Purple eyeshadow? Deep mauve, faint pink or a magenta type shade. Maybe NARS “Downtown” Gloss or NARS “Chihuahua” Gloss. Also Dior’s Addict “881/Fashion Week,” LipStick…that is such a fabulous color!!

Blue eyeshadow? HAHA, honestly…I go for it all the way w/ a bright pink gloss. Usually Chanel’s “Pink Teaser” Glossimer.

What lip color do you wear with green eyeshadow? Coral that leans orange, or peach shades

What lip color do you wear with blue eyeshadow? It all depends on the shade of blue, but typically, soft pinks or nudes.

Kathy Avatar

I’m not sure how to answer as I’m not sure what the look is and that kind of changes how I’d answer. Just in general –

Green: browns or peaches for something bolder, coral for a strong lip with a softer look
Purple: again, nudes or peaches and corals
Blue: pinks, berries or reds – anything except nudes, unless there’s a good mix of gray and then I’d still rather use peaches. The deal with blues, I find, is that you need something that can match intensity.

green eyes – I have ’em and I wear anything I want to long as it does not give me a crying eye red look which I have to be careful about, esp with purples and browns – anything that has a red tinge to it will give me that look.
purple eye shadow – a nude lip and play up the purple to be more smokey purple eye
Blue eye shadow – mauve lip – keep it neutral but not really nude.

What lip color do you wear with blue eyeshadow? I never wear blue eyeshadow, partly because I never know what lip color/blush should go with it lol so I’d probably wear a light pink, nude or maybe orange.

For all colors, nude or matching lip shades. I see makeup as part of visual self expression and beyond being “pretty” so I like more unconventional colors.
