Put it on your lash line!!!! If you put it on your waterline it will make them look even smaller! For good mascara try Lash Blast by cover girl.

Green eyes are really fun to work with. They have such a wide color range from turqouise to chartreuse to forest green to bright light green and on and on.
These tips are designed for the magority of green eyes, but of course there are exceptions to every rule. My best advice is to try every color that you’re interested in. You’ll be surprised what looks good.
Choosing An Eyeshadow
These colors are some of the most popular for green eyes.
Try different browns, especially chocolate tones. Browns and dark greens with copper or gold highlights are also a great choice.
Apricots and taupes are good choices for highlighters.
Dark purples, plums and metallics work too. Coppers and golds will make a really glamorous evening look for makeup tips for green eyes. I personally really like the way deep purples look with dark green eyes.
Colors To Avoid
When you’re learning makeup tips for green eyes, it also helps to know what colors you might want to avoid.
First up, blues. Any color of blue doesn’t do green eyes justice. I would recommend avoiding light blues, dark blues and even some colors (purples or pinks) with blue undertones.
Pinks are also a hard color to judge. Some can look really, really good and others can look really, really bad. This is usually a matter of trial and error.
Silvers are not a good choice either. Leave them for the blue eyes.
Eyeliner Colors
Unless you really like black eyeliner, it’s usually a color to avoid. Try steely grays or chocolate browns. Use gold or white to open up the eye if your eyes are small.
The Rule Of Thumb
A good rule of thumb when choosing a color for makeup tips for green eyes is to focus on warm colors and avoid cool colors.
Like I said, there are exceptions to every rule, but this should provide a nearly fail-safe method for choosing eyeshadow colors to bring out the beauty of your green eyes.
The Application
How you apply your eyeshadow depends how many colors you’re wearing and what the occasion is.
For basic every day wear, here’s what you do.
1. Apply a highlighter like crystalline to the entire eye from the bottom of the crease to the eyebrow.
2. Use a taupe or apricot next and apply it to the whole eyelid and blend it just above the crease with the crystalline.
3. Then use your third color (chocolate brown, dark green, copper, etc.) and apply it one of two ways:
a. Apply it from the middle of your eyelid from the eyelash to just above the crease. Blend it well. You can even blend it under the lower lashes for a more dramatic look.
b. Apply it from the inner corner of your eyelid and sweep it out to the outer corner of your eye. It will get thicker the further out you go. Blend well.
4. Apply eyeliner and mascara as you normally would.
And there you go! Great makeup tips for green eyes.

Use a purple shadow. Purples bring out green eyes because these two colors are opposites on the color wheel. Try putting a lighter shade all over the lid and then applying a medium to dark shade on the outer half of the lid for a simple look. According to reviews on youtube (check out juicystar07 for the video) the vibrating mascara is worth a try. Loreal telescopic is also a really good lengthening mascara. To make your eyes look bigger, put white eyeliner on the waterline and stay away from darker liners. instead run the eyeshadow that you used that day on the lower lash line. This provides emphasis without being too harsh or dark. For more tips and tricks go to youtube, that’s where I learned everything, and just watch some make up videos. There are tons of gurus who give great advice. Hope this helps and good luck!
