What color eyeshadow is best for brown eyes and tan skin for an October wedding?

My friend has brown hair, brown eyes, and a tan complexion. I also would like to accent the gold details of her dress, into her eye make up. Her dress is ivory with gold detailing down the front bodice of it. She doesn't wear alot of make up typically, so I am a bit nervous about doing her make up for her, and I don't want her to look washed out in the pictures.What color eyeshadow is best for brown eyes and tan skin for an October wedding?

drees can not match with make up in face ...brown hair ..brown eyes,ivory and gold dress gold eye shadow!!! no way ...the best would be to have make up in different shades of rose , natural Report Abuse

Try a shade of green or a shimmering cream/white colour.
A dark shad of purple with gold specks in it would be pretty. Purple compliments brown eyes. The gold specks would help to accent her dress. MAC has a couple shades that would definately work. As for lips, do a lip liner with a nude/peach colored tint. That way the eyes will stand out.
Bronze!! A metallic bronze eyeshadow. Its so in right now, and if she has gold details in her dress that's perfect!





Also she has brown hair and eyes and a dark complexion, so it would look quite natural on her yet still have a nice shimmer, Try MAC eye shadows, they have a great assortment
For an october wedding i would go natural, something in the browns with a little pearlesence in it.
anthing that is natural. browns.peaches.some shade of mauve(like a rich berry) also for anything formal if she wants to be a little daring try natural hues with a little deep black in the crease or even a little on the outer corner. you should try avon's cocoa glow quad.
You should just use the same color as you're skin and play up you're lips.
The best shades to use are shades that compliment the color of the person's eyes. She has brown eyes so she should use brown shades on her eyes.
I love Bobbi Brown shimmer brick in Bronze or Brownie. You can use it on your checks for a natural glow - I apply a little on my nose and forehead it looks great in pictures b/c it gives you that Jennifer Lopex bronzed glow. I also use the colors individually as eyeshadow (lighter colors under my brows for a ';glow'; effect).





You might want to try a soft pink with dark brown shadows for a softer effect. Naturals might wash her complexion out.





Good luck and best wishes for your friend's wedding day!!!
I have brown hair and brown eyes, my favorite eyeshadow is Almay. They have sets of eye products that are made specifically for your eye color. The one i have is purple, light brown, and dark brown trio. With a purple eye liner and brown mascara. It makes my eyes pop and look amazing, i have been using it forever. It also gives you instructions on how to apply the different colors correctly. If you really want to make your eyes and eye color pop then you should use this. Im not sure about the gold eyeshadow and how to imcorporate, maybe you could switch out the lighter brown for gold?? Goodluck, i am sure that she will look beautiful.
I have brown eyes and I wear a light shimmery brown.
The gold sounds pretty....they have really nice golden shadow tones out there now. I have a gorgeous shimmery gold color that looks fabulous! Plus, it'll make her darker skin glow....and bring out the gold detail in the dress! I also love the nude pink lip with tanner skin shades.
