I usually only wear mascara and a little eyeshadow and have been looking for an eyeshadow colour that would suit me. My eyes are a weird combination of blue and grey and seem to look different on any given day Smile anyone have similar colour eyes and what shades work for you? I'll attach a picture

Oh lovely eyes. Coppery colour would bring out the blue.

A shimmery lilac would probably look good.

I have grey/blue eyes too. I have recently discovered that any eyeshadows with red pigments make my eyes look really blue. It’s a bit tricky to get right as you don’t want to look as you have been crying, but it’s worth the effort,

I also wear a lot of black and purple combos. I am also currently enjoying some shades of gold.

Thanks for the recommendations everyone, I've seen some really nice purple and brown shades in M&S so might go for those

There's a MAC shade called "Bronze" which is a nice every day browny colour

Your eyes are lovely. Mine are a similar colour and my favourite palettes are urban decay heat and honey.

@MooSakah love Mac's stuff so will definitely give it a try thanks

@IvorCutler think I had some Urban Decay makeup before and I loved it. It lasted ages aswell

Your eyes are beautiful (eyebrows too), Rimmel have some good eyeshadow palettes. Brown/orange tones always suit blue eyes

Try Mac star violet, I have blue eyes and they look bluer with this. I use it as an eyeliner underneath my eyes with a damp thin brush then use it on the outer corner of my eyelid with a darker brown in the eye socket.

You have beautiful eyes op Smile

You are young and lovely- like a model- and could wear anything.

Buy some cheap and cheerful and experiment.

I have green / grey eyes and this Cherry Urban Decay palette is amazing for bringing the colour out and think it would do the same for yours too. The colours in the palette are beautiful. Plus, Urban decay eyeshadows are amazing!!! I’ll never buy another brand ever again! Click on the link to get an idea what effects you can get from it
