    I think purple would look amazing on your eyes. You should try different colored eyeliners; like green, navy, and purple. Are those your eyes? If so, your eyelashes are soo long.

    this exactly!

    nars "mekong" lines the eyes beautifully and brightens the blue, but if you're looking for a pencil lancome kohl in black coffee is another one to have a look at. bobbi brown gel liners come in black and have lots of plum mixed in. as for shadows, try mac's mulch! keep us updated!

    I have the same colour eyes - grey blue. Although mine are quite a bit lighter.

    I like Plum, gold, mauve, beige and for dramatic looks black/grey smokey eyes.

    SAME! They always looks so deep and beautiful. I find my blue eyes to be so tired and boring.

    Green & Blue eyes rock: Light bronze shadows, pinks, purples are super hot, golds, silver, metallic olive, and pearl shades! Yes yes yes.

    Metallics look amazing on green/blue eyes. All of my eye shadows are metallic. I have the same color eye mix... I played with a smokey navy blue eye shadow last week, put it on the bottom lash line and it made my eyes look more green. On the top lid I did a silver/grey mix. My eyes popped in the dark club.

    I don't. Sorry. Also, use a grey kohl pencil on the upper lash line and smudge it a bit. It's so easy to play and create now that I have a big case palette of different mac colors.

    I would go for rusty or bronze and brown colours anything with orange undertones will bring out blue.
