Choosing the right colors

This depends entirely on your skin tone and color preferences. When picking out mermaid colors keep in mind the colors of the ocean. This means greens, blues, turquoise colors shimmers sparkles maybe some gems to add the look of sparkly water. You will need to choose one main color. Once you have chosen this color for example a deep green then you will want to choose a mint green to blend it with and then a pastel or cream shade to blend with that color. You will need three colors of eye shadow in all.
