Eyeshadows for Blue Eyes

Blue Eyes

So warmer shades tend to set this iris color ablaze since blue is naturally a cool tone. Do you need to stick with just tawnier pigments? No! Grey-brown, slate, slivery blues and pink look stunning! If your eyes are navy in color, try eggplant. Just keep in mind that when you have an eye color that’s light, like blue, avoid putting too much color on the lid. It distracts from the beauty of the eye. Instead try a shimmery pink or champagne on your lid. This will look gorgeous!

Best eyeshadow colors for blue eyes: Blue-grey, grey-brown, silvery blues, coppers, gold, champagne, yellow-beige, peach, pink & browns

Brown Eyes

Women with brown eyes have the widest range of options when it comes to choosing eyeshadow. Almost every single shade of green looks amazing on brown eyes! It's the perfect eyeshadow color to compliment light brown or darker brown eyes. Consider trying a khaki green or even a forest green too, they really give some high drama to your eyes. Remember bronze should be a staple in your palette and pairs really well with green eyeshadow. Another excellent choice for those with brown eyes would be purple, like green, is a must have eyeshadow. Purple might just be the single best eyeshadow color to set off the highlight brown eyes. Try pairing a medium shade of purple with bronze, these colors are absolutely beautiful together!
