Since you have olive skin tone and brown eyes, you can use a lot of different shades of makeup (particularly eye makeup).. I'd suggest the following, but you can always experiment and find the look you're going for.

Mascara- black

Eyeliner-black

Eyeshadow- for brown eyes, I'd suggest using browns/golds, also purple shades look great. You can try browns, purples, blues.. but I'd stick to something simple that looks good at all times.

Blush- Since you already have tannish skin, you don't really need to use blush, but if you want to (esp. on special occasions), stick to something very light (pinkish) or peachy.

Lipstick- You can use different shades- I'd opt for something caramel or toffee-like (gold undertones for your tan/olive skin). Or try something light, pinkish (not bright, more like salmon color).

Lipgloss-- same as above. I'd suggest using a neutral color for your lips, particularly if you are doing up your eyes. I love Maybelline "Lip Polish" lip gloss in Baby Mauve. It's a light, sort of creamy/nude shade, which looks great w/my skin tone (also olive).

Keep in mind that if you're going to "do up" your eyes, you should keep your lip color simple...nude, cream, pinkish, etc..

hey

mascara- black
eyeliner- black
eyeshadow - light, maybe whitish or light brown
blush - light pink, not TOO light
lipstick - medium pink; NEVER red
lipgloss - pink.

i wouldn't go too much on the lipstick - you have a tan face so the red would clash with your skin.

mascara eyeliner- black or brown
eyeshadow- green looks really good
blush- light rose
lipgloss- either clear(best), or faint pink.
