I need some makeup help really fast. I'm italian and live in Florida and I'm leaving Friday to go to Italy for 2 weeks with my family here to meet some family who lives there. My sister and I are going to go tomorrow and get some makeup to take with us. We are twins and are both pale with dark brown hilighted hair and dark brown eyes. We need to know what color eye makeup and lip color we should use. We really want our eyes to pop. Please help!!I need makeup help TODAY!!! PLEASE!!!?
I'm 1/2 Italian, with very fair skin and dark hair and eyes. Here are some of my personal favorites:
Eyeshadows
- Pale pink
- Shimmery gold
- Plum
Since your eyes are dark, you want to play them up with a paler color. This will make your eyes appear larger, brighter, and more alert.
Blushes
- Pale pink
- Slight mauve (not too dark, or your face will look rather sallow)
Concealers
- If your skin is like mine, it probably has some yellow-y olive tones in it. Try playing this up with a yellow-based concealer in your matching skintone. I use CoverGirl ';Clean Makeup'; Oil Control concealer in ';creamy natural';. Since Italy will probably be rather hot and muggy, I think a liquid concealer is your best bet - powders might smudge.
Lip Gloss
- Again, pinks are a good bet
- Plums and Mauves
- Try going to http://www.covergirl.com/cgcollection/li鈥?/a> . Any of the ';neutrals'; should look good with your skintone, hair, and eye color.
Best of luck, and have a great time in Italy!

Outlining them with white eyeliner makes them pop. also a smoky look would suite you.
Use a somewhat contrasting color on the eveys like a shimmery green or a really pretty purple-pink. For lip gloss I would suggest a somewhat pink tinted shine!
Have fun in itally, i hope this helps!
u should try purples and greens for the eyeshadow because those r the best for brown eyes. dont go dark on the lips try pink-ish lip gloss =) hope that helps
I have the same coloring as you and these are my favorite shadows... All M.A.C!
Highlighter: Phloof, Jest, Rice Paper
Lid Color: Satin Taupe, Sable, Shale, Trax
Crease: Beauty Marked, Twinks, Sketch
Lips: Oyster Girl and Carmex
Hi If your pale with a slight olive tone, you may need the second from lightest color, make sure your able to try it, and you do not have a line at your chin. get foundation sponges (1-3 dollars). I have dark eyes and hair. I use all color eye shadows and liners, but have much experience using cosmetics, you can use a nuteral palete of browns, with brown liner, and black mascara, the second easiest color palate to work with are plums (dark purple's) that give colors, but are almost as easy to work with as browns. todays makeup, has a smudgy look, not a lot, but not sharp lines, so make sure eye shadows are blended, and liner is smudged in nicely with a cosmetic q-tip (2dollars). as far as blush, you can go lightly rosey. I like loreal, and lancome, estee lauder, max factor. I do not know your budget. Mac is good. If you have the time, go to a dept store, they will teach you to apply for free, you dont have to buy, but should, they do expect some kind of purchase as they work on commisson.
as far as lip shades, you can go with rosey dewy lip glosses, low gloss, or mauves, they work with all skin tones, and are good for those with little experience. no reds, until you know your makeup, and right shades. No pinks, ditto above. Keep lips simple, with a natural nutrual palate until you see someone, or are able to test colors.
also Sephora is a great store, but can be overwhelming for a cosmetic novice, but the help is great if you plan to spend some good money, they can be costly.
Go to http://www.myjellybean.com/ and take the quiz.(You'll find it after searching.)
Next, go to http://www.eyeslipsface.com/ Everything on that website is $1.00!
shades of slate blue, gray, and plum eyeshadow would look best with your eye color.
you should go to cvs pharmacy and you will find some make up for you and your sister and some lipsstick for your lips
you should us dark browncolors for ur eye liner and purples for ur eye shadow, i am the same way, dark brown hair abd eyes so these do make ur eyes pop, i suggest the almay line of beauty products, the have a eye color matching thing that shows what to buy with ur color of eyes,
here is the site for it...
http://almay.com/pg/main/catcoleyeslips.鈥?/a>
it is found in target and other drug stores.
I'm not anexpert in makeup but i would go with a rosy lip gloss since your skin is pale it'll look very nice kind of like snow white put on a dark eyeliner and maybe a light eye shadow thats my suggestion but visit this site for great ideas on eye makeup for brown eyes.
