Question
Hey! I recently went to Sephora and had an artist choose some eyeshadow for me that went with my eye color and age. I have dark brown eyes and am 15. She slected for me a gold Lorac shadow and a purple Sephora shadow. I was now wondering what other makeup I should wear with these shadows to balance them out. I was thinking black eyeliner and mascara, but I was hoping you had some other suggestions. Please let me know!

Answer
You have a lot of options.  You can use purple eyeliner and mascara to make the purple pop, or browns to bring out the golds and the color of your eyes.  Black will make it more vampy for an evening look and brown will make it look more natural.  It really just depends on the mood you are in and what you are wearing or doing.  You could even bring in a green eyeliner to make the colors look different as well.  There are so many combinations and options- just have fun playing and see what you come up with!

Hope this helps- good luck!
