I've got light blond hair and a pale, yellow/pink complexion (yes, both) with eyes that are dark blue on the outer rim yet greenish blue in the main part of the iris and yellow right next to the pupil. And I've found, especially as I get older (I'm 32) that soft, slightly shimmery pinks are the way to go on the lid. I love Nars for the range of pinks I can find that have some shimmer to make my eyes stand out and bring out the light in them. I use a soft baby pink with flecks of silver on my eyelids and a burgundy in my crease and at outer upper lash line. I dust a bit of mauve in the crease to lid area too on the outermost section of my eye (to sort of wing them up a bit). The range of pinks helps bring out the blue in my eyes and compliments the green and the same time. I've tried orange shades (soft, not wild) thinking that would make the blue of my outer iris pop but I look dead, I wore purple shades when I was younger but as I get older it doesn't look good somehow. I look washed out. I hate, hate, hate browns on my eyes, which is always what make up counter girls reach for when I've had makeovers (they see blue/green eyes and light blonde hair and think brown is the answer - it is not!) Basically everything fails but pinks in the right shades and in the right places. It's not my go-to look and I play with the intensity of color when I want to go from day make up to rich, bold nighttime looks. I finish with the tiniest touch of black liner (mostly to fill in between the lashes since they are a bit light brown and kind of sparse) and black or black/brown mascara. Nars is by far my favorite line of shadows for the wear, rich color, and shimmer added.

HI THERE, IF YOU HAVE FAIRLY SMALL EYES I WOULD TRY MAKE UP FOREVERS CREAM SHADOW IN AQUA CREAM 13 OR16 AND THEN NARS NIGHT RIDER. I WOULD USE A BLACK EYELINER FOR THE TOP LID AND THEN STILA KAJAL EYELINER IN TOPAZ ON THE INER PART OF YOUR BOTTOM EYE. IT WILL GIVE YOU THE LOOK OF A WIDER EYE AND THE SHADOW WILL MAKE YOUR HAZEL EYES POP!!! GOOD LUCK

Check out the Nars duo eyeshadow in color Habanera. The darker color is a very subtle, charcoal plum with golden shimmer. It does not look "purple" on, but you get the green-eye enhancing effect of purple. It makes your eyes pop without screaming at you. If you like a very very subtle look, try the single eyeshadow in Cairo. It looks taupe-pink in the compact, but the effect is not pink at all. It does bring out the green eyes.

no noticeable glitter ... just a sheen

Hi have you tried Urban Decay primer for eyes? My lids are oily as well but when I use that the shadow really stays put. Nars shadows are high quality and highly pigmented, so the combo of both should work well for you.

The color "Ondine" ...I know it's a wierd name but it's a great color by Nars. If you see the example with this reply it does not do the color justice...looks brite purple...but that's not what it looks like in person...it's more of a smokey dark plum....

NARS does not test on animals, nor do they have any other parties, such as suppliers, conduct any animal testing on their behalf. NARS uses only the highest quality ingredients which have a proven safety record and are widely used in the cosmetics industry.

Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to tell by a picture. You have to have faith in reading the comments given to you by your Beauty Sisters. I bought this wonderful shade, and it has a lot of pigment, but it looks so lovely with a darker puple smudged in the crease. I wear mine like that and I also wear it with Sephora's creame Turqouise eyeliner. It looks so good as a new spring look!! I'm planning on buying Baby Girl next, it has a gold shimmery to it and should pump up my spring look, as well. Nars is sorta more expensive, but I think it's worth it with it's built in mirror. And don't forget those wonderful Lorac, Clinique, and other Sephora wonderful light lips to go with your look!!! Oh, Lorac and Smashbox has some wonderful blushes to boost your pinky spring look. I just bought the Stilla 2 light shades of dewy gloss and the fabulous Hearts with different colors for blush. It is the perfect blush for me, it has light pastel pink, a darker pink, and a purple thrown in. It goes on like silk, and if you put a primer on your face and some tinted foundation, like Laura Mercier, you will look like a model!!!

I have blue/green eyes and think Voyage is really good - it is a nice golden taupe with subtle gold flecks. Very pretty!

I would say Galapagos cause its a nice brown but it has a kick with the gold glitter.
