The eyes have it

Understanding how to choose eyeshadow colours that bring out your eyes and complement your complexion is the key to making your peepers pop.

By using a specific shade that complements your eyes — eyeliner, mascara, and eyeshadow — you can add a wow factor. The first step is to find your eye colour on a colour wheel and look at the colours directly across from it. That will be your best complementary shade. Texture can also add vibrancy so try using shimmery, metallic, or glitter eyeshadows to enhance your eye shape.

Here are some beautiful eye colour matches to try:

BROWN EYES
Warm browns, golden shades, purples, and blues, along with deep burgundy mascara.

BLUE EYES
Orange and other warm shades, along with amber neutrals, coppery tones and soft brown eyeliner.

HAZEL EYES
Purples, browns, golds, and greens.

GREEN EYES
Warm oranges, reds, and golds, with a touch of burgundy mascara or eyeliner.

GREY EYES
Warm browns, golds, oranges, and smokey charcoal colours.
