Are you guilty of sticking to one eye shadow color on your lids? You can easily go from bland to glam by making one simple change: instead of using one eye shadow color, use two different shades. However, it is best to keep them within the same color family for ideal results. Not only does it look cool, it adds dimension to your eyes. For example, pair a darker shade of purple eye shadow along your lids with a lighter shade swept across the crease.
Want to make your eyes pop and appear brighter, but are tired of turning to your white eye liner? Next time reach for blue eye liner instead. Yes, you read right: blue eye liner. This color is all the rage for its ability to make the eyes appear naturally brighter because of its cool tone. Depending on your eye color, you may want to consult with a makeup artist to find the right shade of blue liner.
Make eye shadow really work for you by purchasing color palettes that use shades meant to enhance the natural color of your eyes. Even if the color choice doesn’t make sense to you, trust in the fact that professionals in the makeup industry made those choices for a reason. Brown-eyed gals will want to get a color palette consisting of golds and pinks, while green-eyed beauties will want to opt for sandy, warm shades. The purple family of colors is especially great for those with blue eyes.
Sometimes all you need to liven up your eyes is highlighter. Not just for finishing off a smokey eye or other involved look, adding a touch of highlighter to the contour of the brow bone and the inner corners of the eyes are the perfect way to subtly draw attention to your peepers without going overboard.
Who says you always have to keep your eye shadow color on your eyelids? Change things up and have fun by adding eye shadow in a warm tone to your lower lash line.
