I do eye makeup for sis all the time! she has the most gorgeous green eyes...

to really bring out the color of your eyes you want to pick one of three things...a neutral that compliments, a contrasting color (in your case bronze, or purple tones), or a coordinating color (in your case green).

The key to this trick is not to pick colors that scream COLOR!

Go to a higher end beauty boutique and look at the various eyeshadows they have set up...often they are arranged by color so all the green shades are near each other. Obviously if you're going for a more toned down look, pick a shade that is more subtle and sheer....perhaps pick a trio of shades so you can layer them in order to tone down the green.

Green eyes are best with less color because they speak for themselves. If you have more hazel green eyes, play up your lash line with some dark brown liner and green/yellow shimmer right above your line and in the corner. blend them to make it less harsh. If your eyes are a bluer green, again, play up the lashline, but use a more opalescent white liner above and blend. Less is more.

Also...invest in a mascara that is blue black or brown black. Blue black works for blue/green eyes...brown black works for hazel/green eyes. Same with eyeliners. Lining your eyes for an evening out will really make them pop.

Have fun!
