Going back to eye color…

I forgot to mention one product that I like a lot when it comes to popping out the color of your eyes:

Almay Intense I-Color Play Up and Bring Out eye products

They really do bring out your eye color.
I have the Play Up eyeshadow and mascara for blue eyes, and I’m going to go and get the set for green eyes very soon.

At Target, the products run for about $5.99-$7.99. For the price, you get a really good product.
Go ahead and try it out!

The BEST eyeshadow for your eye color!

Posted in makeup tips tagged , , , , , , , , , at 10:28 pm by smashley16

Eyes are my favorite part of a person. They are very sensual, and you can almost always tell what a person is feeling just by looking into their eyes. Yes, it sounds creepy, I know, but it’s true. Don’t worry, I don’t go around gazing into people’s eyes, because that’s plain weird, but I do sometimes pay attention to it, particularly with guys because they are so damn hard to read sometimes (I KNOW every girl who’s reading this right now is shaking their head ‘YES‘).

But, enough of that. Let’s move on to makeup!!

Typically, there are four common eye colors: brown, hazel, gray (a mixture of green and blue), and blue.

Thanks to Jurgita, a modeling website, the four most common eye colors have been matched with their eyeshadow soulmates.
