Q. Okay I have 4 bridesmaids. and they all look SO DIFFERENT. none of them are plus-sized, but their complexions and curves are so different. i still have no idea how to find a dress that all of them will feel good in.
bridesmaid #1. Light brown hair, olive skin undertone, 5'11, supermodel body
#2. Natural platinum blonde, yellow skin undertone, square on top, long legs
#3. Natural black hair, blue eyes, pink skin undertone, curvy, but not plus-sized

Answer
color is a HUGE deal. try looking at a champagne color. It looks good on different skin complexions. I have to go to a wedding in September in Vermont and my bridesmaid dress is really light pink and I have really pale skin. I am NOT looking forward to it. a good idea is letting them pick the design. I have to wear a strapless dress. doesn't work on my body type so I'm going to be way uncomfortable. it's important that your bridesmaids are comfortable.

It's contacts by the way. I probably won't be wearing them for the wedding. So brown eyes.
Well I'm not sure if i'll wear the contacts. Maybe?? Should I?
The ceremony is at 4 and reception at 6. We will also be going to the lake to take formal pictures. AND I just found out it will be about 90 degrees that day!!! Hope it will be cooler by the lake so I won't melt. =)
Answer
definintly stay away from bright colors when you already have a bright dress, also this being a formal event. The worst thing you can do is be too matchy with the make up and dress. Also being that your eyes are that color :)
I would suggest natural makeup or a slightly smokey eye.
Start with an eyeliner brown for a natural look or black for the more dramatic look to make your eyes pop. Whichever look you prefer.
if you are doing the smokey eye smudge the eyeliner into your lashes and then add a smokey grey color to your lids. Put a slightly darker shade in the crease and a color slightly lighter than your skin tone underneath your eyebrows. top off with mascara. The key to this would be blending and making it subtle.

if you choose the more natural look use a creamy brown, with your skintone i would suggest a warm creamy brown. and then follow the same procedure as above using a slightly darker shade in the crease and a shade just lighter than yourskintone under your brows. also top this off with mascara.

if you really have your heart set on color heres 2 looks that might work
1. http://www.thesaturdaypost.com/images/alm_47_s00.jpg
2. http://www.beauty-advices.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/smoky-eyes.jpg
as you can see the first is a slightly different color than your dress but stays with the same color family
the second is a smokey look but with a slight hint of color
*one important thing to consider is if it is a day wedding you should stick to the more natural.If it is an evening or more formal wedding you might want to do the more dramatic look
*my personal favorite would be the slightly smokey eye or the slightly smokey eye with the hint of blue
sorry so long but i hope this helps out :)
have fun at the wedding!!!
Just read the additional details
i still think a slight smokey look would look best. And eveything i saiid would still apply. However stick to more pinky tones if you do the natural look it will make your brown eyes pop :)
