Mystery of what colours suit skin tones

Have been having a look around for a while but I am trying to see if there is a thread that puts in easy terms which colours suit which skin tones - mainly eye colours. Is there some that I have missed. Apologies if I have.

If not could you experts give us some ideas on what colours work best with the different skin tones and which dont.

Re: Mystery of what colours suit skin tones

Generally, a cool-toned person will look best in cool or neutral colors and a warm-toned person will look best in warm or neutral colors. It's not really a rule, so much as a guideline as to what colors may look best on whom.

Here are a few threads based on eye colors:

A quick overview according to eye colors:

Hazel Eyes:

Right colours for brown eyes



When in doubt, there are always brands that have predesigned eyeshadow palettes based on eye color such as Almay, Physician's Formula, and POP Beauty.
