For your eyes, try light eye shadows in ash, pale pink or taupe and give mascara and eye liner in a dark brown color a try. When it comes to giving your cheeks a playful glow, try pale pink or peachy pink blush colors. As for your lips, light to medium shades of pink, peach and rose will give you a luscious lip look.

For your eyes, green eye shadow is a great contrast for red hair and colors in gold, bone and taupe will create a very flattering eye shadow look. Enhance your eyes further with dark brown eye liner and mascara. To dress up your cheeks, give rosy brown and apricot shades a go. To really compliment your hair color, lipstick and lip liners in peach, red and brownish pink shades are great options.
