They think of everything! You can use all three colors on the palette, or just one! I suggest using browns, light browns, and peaches. I hope all of this helps, good luck, and God bless!I have very pale skin, dark brown/auburn hair + light hazel eyes. what make-up colours will flatter me?
Here's all you need:

It's about what season you are....I have very pale skin, dark brown/auburn hair + light hazel eyes. what make-up colours will flatter me?
dark green


urban decay do the best eye colours eva
purples, greens, and off-colors but soft ones.





If you look up the seasons for color for clothing and make up you can find the season you fit in and then the colors that go with it. I can't remember what it's called now, but there's a book that was written a while ago that goes over that and it's pretty darn accurate.





I also think you might be an early autumn, a summer, or late spring.
i think browns and greens...Also try purple, you'd be surprised at how it can bring out your eyes.... Blues i'd give a miss.
naked... it works for most girls
You would look good in warm colors like golds, rich pinks, warm reds, etc. It will bring some brightness to your skin.
All, less brown; orange; yellow; white, and green.xx
lilac/purples, browns, and green eyeshadows to bring out the green in your hazel eyes..%26amp;%26amp; of course eyeliner and mascara can never do you wrong if you dont over do it.
I think you'd look good in tans browns
well, with that ombonation, id have to say go natural.. let your eyes pop your face and you hair will accent you just fine...
brown and peachy shadows.





peachy lipsticks
first put something tan[ or near light tan]


like pressed poweder





then put pinkish bluch on your cheeks.
That depends on whether your skin has an ';olive'; undertone. If so, then you should stay with warm palettes. Browns, Greens, Tans, Earth Tones.





If your skin has a pink or red undertone, you should stick with the cooler palettes: Pink, Purple, Blue.





Neutrals work for all: Cream, Grey, etc.
browns and earthy greens-but not too green.
For most brunettes, Purple looks best with the hair color. For Eyeshadow, don't use super light colors because that will blend in with you skin, but use browns. Greens would be okay, but that might make you look bold because of you pale skin. Over all eyeshadow-browns, light suttle greens and light suttle purples. For blush don't use brown! That would not compliment your skin tone! Use a pink. Lips- Lip gloss, not lip stick. Any color.
nothing too dramatic.


i have green eyes and the lady at clinique always gets me with a brown shawdow on the lower lid, sage green in the middle with a creamy color on the top lid up to my brow.


i use a kind of peachy pink lip color. and sometimes no lip color at all just some plain lip balm for a shimmer.


and a light bronzer on the cheek bone for blush.


just work with different stuff.


try to stay away from dark dark colors on the eyes and stay away from brown lip sticks.


a light plum color also looks good on the eyes as well.


if you go to the mall.


the people that work at the makeup counters will help you find colors that look good on your face and with your skin, eyes and hair for free they'll even show you how to apply the makeup and make it look pretty for free.
yeah like everyone else said...try browns and greens...just try a bunch of diff colors and see which ones look the best..

Generally speaking, makeup shades are separated into 4 seasonal groups (Summer, Winter, Autumn and Spring). It sounds as though you are most definitly an Autumn person so try and stick to colours like:





Off whites, warm beiges from light to dark, warm browns from light to dark, camel, gold, Mustard, pumpkin, terra cotta, rust, peach %26amp; Salmon, Orange, orange-red, tomato red


Lime green, yellow-green, moss green, grayed green, olive green, jade green, forest green, Turquoise, teal blue, dark periwinkle blue.





This doesn't mean these are the only colours you SHOULD wear, experiment with all of them to see which you like best, these are just a guidline.





Best of luck.
