Eyeshadows to Enhance Your Eye Color

Eyeshadows for Brown Eyes

One of the many fantastic qualities about brown eyes is their versatility. To make brown eyes pop reach for contrasting cooler shade like silver, gray, and charcoal. Clients can gain a lighter appearance by using select green tones. Lastly, try adding a touch of intensity by adding black in the crease.

Eyeliner: Purple, jade, bronze, & brown Eyeshadows: Monochromatic: Brown, black, bronze, taupe Complementary: Blue, green, violets, & lilac	Eyeliner: Blue Eyeshadows: Yellow and grey

Eyeshadows for Blue Eyes

For your clients with blue eyes, you might suggest neutral light tones because of their natural light. Soft shades like coral and champagne will catch the glint in the iris but will not distract. Any highly-pigmented colors such as black or deep purple are generally too harsh and cause blue eyes to appear smaller. Instead consider shadows with orange undertones such as terra-cotta, gold, and a light burnt sienna.

Eyeshadows for Green Eyes

If your clients have green eyes, select violet liner, and shadows to add a contrasting color. The shades of plum, amethyst, and violet help to bring out the natural brightness for a piercing look. Green is also complemented by reddish undertones because of its position on the color wheel.
