Eye makeup now I'm going grey

My hair's going grey and it's got me wondering if I should change the colour of my eye makeup.

I only wear eyeshadow/eyeliner and mascara. Currently I use green eyeshadow, which works well with my brown eyes and light olive skin.

What have other people with similar colouring done?

I've got brown eyes and olive skin and have been grey for a while. In my view it's not the eyeshadow that you need to reconsider, as it sounds like the colours you use are perfect for your eye colour, it's the lip colour! Grey hair can be a bit draining but it's also a fantastic back drop for more vivid lip colour. I'm wearing red lipstick again for the first time in years as it now really pops and looks great against the silver

Oops sorry just seen that you don't currently wear lip colour but maybe now is a good time to start!

Funnily enough @Puppylucky I tried out some red lipstick that I bought years ago for fancy dress the other day and I thought it looked rather good. So I'll try that.
