With strawberry blonde hair and green eyes, you are a natural "spring" knockout. Your warm, sunny undertones need to be highlighted, contrasted and enhanced. Select the colors that clash or complement your golden hair and green eyes. Shades that are opposite to your natural coloring will enhance your eyes and hair. Like shades will complement you, creating a harmonious color combination. Once you get all the right colors working for you, it will be true what they say -- blondes really do have more fun.

Green

Seeing as you have amazing emerald eyes, why not intensify them by framing them with a shimmering green eye shadow? Go for a shade only slightly darker than you eyes. You can even create a sexy smokey look, perfect for the club, with a dark moss green. The darker green will brighten your hair and eyes, making them appear lighter and more luminous. You will not be able to help but stand out in the crowd. Add a dark eyeliner to create definition.

Oranges and Yellows

Orange and yellow eye shadow will really brighten up your complexion and enhance your eye color. These colors will also allow your hair to look even more golden and rich. These citrus shades will pull on your natural, fresh spring coloring. Try an orange-based red lipstick; this will fatten your lips and give you a lovely pout -- though looking this good you will have no reason to.

Pinks and Purples

Pinks and purples should be kept dark on you. Select a fuchsia and deep purple for your eyes. Go for a pop candy pink lipstick. Do not be afraid of looking too much like Barbie; the darker side of pink is fierce and fashion forward. These intense shades sit in opposition to your golden and green coloring, and so will automatically contrast and challenge them. These looks are also good for the party scene.

Blue

Blue may seem a little too '80s retro, but a soft shade will be very beneficial for you. Try powder blue eye shadow. This sky-like shade will contrast your light hair and give you a subtle glow. The blue will also intensify any blue flecks in your eyes.

Nude

Nude makeup will look amazing on you, because your features are bright enough to stand alone. Try a subtle brown eye shadow. Use only a touch to create a slight shadow. Wear a clear lip gloss or a very soft matte pink. Try a dewy pink blush to illuminate and open up your face. This is an ideal look for a lunch date, the best way to look demurely alluring.
