I really don't know what colour they are but they don't suit black now and I am tempted by plum but what colour are they ?
Blue ? Grey? Green?
And what shadow / liner colour
I feel so old now my old make up just doesn't work.

What colour liner on these eyes ?

Bottom lash tint is probably all I would do with the lash extensions. Liner can be aging.

A smudged purple / plum / burgundy for sure!

Eyes look grey-blue or blue-grey. Plum mascara would be a good choice and a (not too) dark grey eyeliner along the top lid.

I'm due my lash and brow tint as you can see from the hairy brows and lack of colour in lower lashes! Cooling in is terrifying 😣
I may invest in the bobbi brown aubergine shade I saw on a video.

NYX do a great eyeliner. Stays on all day. Called Epic wear long lasting eyeliner stick. Comes in a few colors. The Olive is good for everyday wear.

Grey

I have similar eye colour and rarely wear liner but when i do it’s usually something close to plum. Although if they do look green in some lights I’ve also found that very sparing use of dark green (i use a felt tip type liner to keep it very thin and neat) with a small swipe of metallic green in the middle makes my eyes suddenly glow green, have had people ask if i’m wearing coloured contacts.

@Stibble could you link or name your products please? That sounds lovely

GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut · 24/05/2024 21:13

I have similar eye colour, I just tightline my upper waterline now rather than proper eyeliner and use black mascara and sometimes a neutral / mushroomy eyeshadow if I want a bit more oomph.

Smudgy warm grey. Black will be too harsh and wash you out.

a pale gold shimmer would also be lovely (for a different look)

MilitantFawcett · 24/05/2024 21:21

I have very similar eye colour too - tight line the upper waterline with Victoria Beckham Fig and then either a mushroomy beige (eg Trinny London Wisdom) or a copper/ rose gold if I want more impact for the evening. Love a burgundy mascara too.

StoneTheCrone · 24/05/2024 21:36

You have warm grey eyes which would look great with grey or navy liner.

CinnamonTwist · 24/05/2024 21:55

I have the same colour eyes (grey) and I use a deep brown liner and mascara. Black is too harsh I find

WhereAreWeNow · 24/05/2024 22:06

Clinique Smoky Brown would be good. Or a plum shade.

Natty13 · 24/05/2024 22:10

I have the exact same shade as you and suit bronze or copper liners. You can smudge them to make them look softer and it gives a nice effect.

Also champagne coloured shadows is really flattering.

@TallTreesPinkTrees thanks! I’m not really a proper grown up make up person, so they probably aren’t the best quality products - I just use a Superdrug 24 hr felt tip liner in a dark green (I have it in a few colours coz it’s so easy to apply a very thin line compared to more expensive ones I’ve tried, but it does smudge if your eyes water) and I have various Urban Decay metallic eyeshadows and pencils so old that all the labels have worn off.

Looking forward to going shopping now !
