    What colour eye-shadow goes well with blue eyes? I wear glasses so don't usually wear eye make-up but I like to try it. Thanks

    Silver eye shadows really make blue eyes pop I find, also coppery shades - MAC have a shade called Amber Lights that I bought and it looks really great against blue eyes.

    The Urban Decay Naked 2 palette works great with blue eyes

    Yes Naked two is great with blue eyes. Fantastic palette. One of the colours in it is called Pistol, its a silvery grey colour and its really lovely with blue eyes.

    MAC Coppering is beautiful with blue eyes too.

    Another vote for Naked 2, I'm close to hitting pan on Tease, Pistol and Busted, as well as Bootycall which makes for a nice highlighting shade if you're pale.

    My favourites are: half baked by urban decay, Amber lights by Mac and satin taupe by Mac. They are all gold/brownish colours! The urban decay one is my favourite out of the lot.

    Another vote for Naked 2. It's a neutral palette and of course has the usual browns and taupes, which look great no matter what your eye colour.
    Also has some fab golds and bronzes too.

    I always thought plum shades are lovely on brown eyes. The dark purple really seems to make them pop.

    Thanks for all the help. I will treat myself to the urban decay palette and get experimenting :-)

    The MUA Heaven and Earth Palette is great as well if you want to go a bit cheaper than Urban Decay - I use mine daily over more expensive shadows! Its available in Superdrug.

    If you use the Urban Decay eyeshadow primer under your eyeshadow your eyeshadow will stay on perfect from early morning until you decide to take it off late that night.
