business suit
roxannel@swbell.net asked:


I’m Hispanic so my skin color is tanned/olive and brown eyes and brown hair. I recently purchased a business suit for a luncheon/meeting we’ll be having in a few weeks. It is black with beige and lime green pinstripes.

So I need to know what shades would be complimentary to the suit without being too…”2 dollar h00ker” if you get my drift. I’d like to make my eyes pop a bit, but without looking like I just got back from The Emerald City.

Thanks in advance…any help is greatly appreciated.

    Lime green eyeshadow would be nice. Or, a color close to your skin or hair color or grey. Fay C

    Do you know how to apply eyeshadows in the shape of < or > on the upper outer corner of your eyes. Well, if you know how to do that, this is going to be really easy and classy. First use a light, or very light pink color on the back of your eyes, then apply a black shade eyeshadow (like Loreal’s Domino) in the shape described in supra. Then draw a black eyeliner on the lower rim of your eye and a line on your upper lid. Try a light green color eyeshadow (again like Loreal’s) and fill in the < or > toward the inner corner of of your eyes. Good Luck! Kat

    You can try Jungle by Mary Kay, I also recommend the Sage eyeliner instead of just a basic black, it will make your eyes stand out more.

    dont use colors that match your outfit i think that looks hooker ish no offense but a lime green eye shadow isnt professional. I would use a nice nude or shimmerish color. I use Prestige eyeshadow when i dont want to go over the top the pack comes with 2 colors I chose the Pinkish with the green. I find the pinkish looks really good just dont use too much. Or a nice bronze / gold would look good, dont go too mmuch just test it out a couple of nights before you’ll know when u fiind your look lkulka17
