Best Eyeliner Color for Green Eyes

Before looking for the perfect eyeliner, you should decide whether you wish to go for a bold look, or a mild and softer look. If you have bright green colored eyes, you might like to go for subtle eyeliner. On the other hand, a bolder or darker eyeliner is the best for light green eyes. One of the simplest tips to remember is that darker the eyeliner, the brighter your eyes will appear. Therefore, you can choose one according to the effect you wish to have.

• Black, Dark Brown, Deep Purple: These are some of the most basic colors for eyeliner where you cannot go wrong. These eyeliners make eyes appear brighter and greener.
• Violet, Purple, Plum: These colors are complete contrast to green and hence, can make your eyes appear greener. A contrast eyeliner is also used when you wish to shift the entire focus to your eyes.
• Light Brown, Gold, Bronze: Brown eyeliner can be preferred over black for day wear as it is much more subtle. These colors are used to create a softer look as opposite to the above colors.
• Blue, Teal, Indigo: If you wish to create further softer and cooler look, then you can go for these colors. Peculiarly, using blue eyeliner for green eyes will make eyes appear bluish-green.

Now, if you are looking for colors to be avoided, then avoid extremely light colors like light blue, silver, pastels, white, etc. These colors will make your eyes appear dull and light. Secondly, if you have a pale complexion, using extremely light eyeliner will make you appear washed out. Using darker shades like burgundy, plum, brown, etc. can make green eyes appear brighter and hence, are the best. As you have pale skin (most people with blond hair have pale skin), you should avoid lighter eyeliner.
