How do you put on eye shadow and what color would be good for me?

What is your skin tone?
Your hair color?

I can’t recommend anything until I know that.

How to apply eye shadow

Go to a makeup counter at a department store and let them help you. They will give you a free makeover which is really nothing more than putting their make-up on you. I have blue eyes and have always worn various shades of brown.

An example would be here. The two colors:

Brown (in the photo: Woodwinked by Mac)

This one is called Amber Lights (by Mac)

These two are the ones that I would use.

My eyes are slate blue and these two go quite well.

Stick with shades of brown for a more natural look. The suggestion to go to a makeup counter ina deoartment store is a really good one. Try two different ones. If you are young try maybe clinique and lancome.

My daughter loved Clinique. I’ve always been an Estee Lauder girl. But Clinique is for younger faces. I just bought my first Lancome foundation and love, love, love it. It feels like silk.
