What makeup compliments BOLD hues?

[SweetLove]

I've been pondering this for a few days now..I bought a bright red silk dress with matching shoes. I really wanted to do stand out eyes but I'd love suggestions on what compliments bold color statements when it comes to clothes... obviously I know that bright colors are enough and I'm just scared of being overdone.

because its inevitable that these details kinda matter when it comes to makeup...I have a relatively light skin tone, hazel(mainly green) eyes and dark brown hair.

Thanks in advance, its for a ball that I am attending and I had a really horrible experience the last time I had my makeup done.

I think to balance the bold dress or outfit, you better go natural with your makeup. For your eye color, I would LOVE copper eyeshadows to pop your gorgeous eye color; and just go peachy on lips and cheeks, to look natural. I also think that the red dress might be enough already to make your eye color stand out.

Hope I am helpful!

You don't have to do totally natural makeup, though you should probably keep the lips plain. Depending on the shade of red and your skin you could try bronze shadow--layered over and blended with black liner it looks really good.

Or if the dress goes with a mod look, do a thin line of black liner, set with powder, with a line of white over it.

Basically use more neutral colors--black, white, brown--but don't be afraid to apply them dramatically. But if you do do dramatic makeup then don't wear jewelry and keep your hair back.
