Hello Sweetysmarty I too have the same eye colour. People can never guess my true colour, but I think it is a good thing Laughing

Eye Shadow is a good way of enhancing your eyes, I've honestly never tried contacts, I think I'm a little wary of them Rolling Eyes

I too would prefer my eyes a little on the greener side Wink

Try Trish McEvoy's Deep Auberdine gel eyeliner, Stila's Plum SmudgePot or Bobbi Brown's Gel Eyeliner in Black Plum Ink or Violet Ink. I have the same eye color as you and these eye liners work great at highlighting green eyes.

i find gel liners easy to use and in that respect, it is no more difficult than any other that I have tried. I use a small pointed Trish McEvoy brush for gel liners....

I have greenish-grey eyes with golden flecks that actually change color anywhere from hunter green to smokey grey to golden yellow, depending upon my mood. My eyes can also appear to be blue sometimes, depending upon the color clothing I’m wearing.

If you really want to make your eyes appear to be the most intense green you can imagine, I highly recommend MAC Fluidlines gel eyeliner in “Iris Eyes” – I just wrote a rave review for it on MUA not too long ago....

~~~ MUA Review by CareKate for MAC Fluidlines Gel Liner Iris Eyes: ~~~
I’d been lusting after a couple of the MAC Tinted Lip Conditioners when I discovered that there is a lone MAC counter at a department store in my town, so – not wanting to buy only lip balm – I checked the list of highest rated MAC products here on MUA and the Fluidline eyeliner caught my attention, specifically the shade called “Macroviolet.” But when I saw it at the store, I was disappointed – it was a dark a purple, very similar to my Smashbox cream liner in Smashing Purple. But because I have green eyes (actually, they’re smokey green with gold flecks), I like to wear purplish eyeliner because it really emphasizes my eyes. The only other MAC Fluidline I saw on display that was in the right color family was this Iris Eyes. I was skeptical that it was way too light/bright, but I bought it anyway (after verifying the store’s return policy, of course). I’m glad I did. The first time I wore it, I was completely astonished at how it made my eyes pop. People are always complimenting me on the unusual color of my eyes, but that day, they were saying “Wow -- I never realized that your eyes were *that* green!!” Another thing, I have really oily eyelids, so I have had problems in the past with eyeliners sliding right off (Urban Decay’s Primer Potion helps, but still...), but not with this stuff – it stayed where I put it until *I* decided it was time to come off! I’ve been using my Smashbox #9 eyeliner brush (which was great for their cream liner), but I think I’m going to get me a brush that is a bit stiffer as I can’t quite make the line as thin as I prefer with the Smashbox brush using the Fluidline...although I’ve found that if I tilted the brush at an angle as I draw on my line, it does help a bit. Anyway, this stuff is fantastic and I’ll definitely replace this color if I ever run out, and I might actually be brave enough to try some of the other shades – provided they’re suitable for my eyecolor, of course! Wink

~~ END ~~

My eyecolor is so unique that people frequently ask me where I got my contacts....

Carrie,

How bright is the Iris Eyes when you put it on? Is it suitable for work?

Thanks Very Happy

It is REALLY bright looking in the jar, which made me really nervous when I bought it, but so long as you apply a thin line right down in the ‘crease’ of your lashline, it’s quite tasteful enough to wear to work. At least, I do it every day!! With this particular shade, it’s more like it makes people notice your eye color, rather than the fact that you are wearing bright purple eyeliner. In other words, it just really makes your eyes “pop.” It’s fantastic and has become my everyday eyeliner. Before this, I was a big fan of Smashbox Cream Eyeliner in “Smashing Purple,” which I thought really emphasized the green of my eyes. But since I’ve had the chance to compare the Smashbox to “Iris Eyes,” now I realize that compared to the MAC Fluidline, the Smashbox Smashing Purple didn’t really make any difference or add any more emphasis to my eyes than if I had just been wearing an ordinary black eyeliner.
