Blue eyes considered one of the most beautiful and sought-after eye colors. They are bright, colorful and reminiscent of the magnificent elements of nature such as the ocean and sky.
Blue eyes are impressive on their own without makeup. However, they can easily be overshadowed by your makeup and look washed out, dull, or faded. Luckily, there are several ways to use makeup to your advantage to enhance and enhance the look of your blue eyes and make them pop.
1. Use shadows of the right color.
Using eye shadow in the right color is one of the most important and simple ways to enhance your blue eyes and help them stand out against makeup that complements them rather than clashes with them.
Brown shades look great with blue eyes. Golden, copper, peach and orange shadows are a great addition to the everyday eye makeup of a blue-eyed beauty. The warmth of these colors makes blue eyes appear sharper. In addition, these shades help bring out the warm golden flecks that are often present in blue eyes but can easily be lost in the abyss of blue iris. Some high quality pigmented eyeshadows in these colors are Anastasia Beverly Hills Singles eyeshadow in Surface of the Sun, a true shimmery satin gold, and Wine, a metallic peachy copper shade.
Purple is another complementary eyeshadow color for blue eyes. All shades of purple, from lavender to plum, can be used to enhance blue eyes. The coolness and calmness of the shade, combined with its blue tint, help blue eyes appear even bluer and brighter against the background of purple shadows. Several beautiful shades of purple eyeshadow can be found in the Urban Decay Eyeshadow collection. Some gorgeous purples in this collection are Tonic, a shimmery lilac with a blue undertone, and Dive Bar, a darker blue-violet with a purple-pink undertone.
2. Stay away from blue
Many people with blue eyes think that their blue eyes go great with blue makeup. Surprisingly, the opposite is also true. While matching is usually a safe bet in the beauty world, this rule doesn't hold for pairing blue eyes with blue eyeshadow or eyeliner. In fact, blue eye makeup does not improve blue eyes at all. Instead, it blurs blue eyes and makes them appear less blue compared to bright blue makeup.
However, many blue-eyed beauties are too attached to their blue eyeshadow or eyeliner to completely remove it from their makeup collection, despite this warning. If you're in this dilemma, try changing your pale blue or turquoise eye makeup to navy blue. Dark blues create less of an unpleasant competition for your blue eyes and are more likely to enhance the blue in your eyes rather than make it look washed out.
