How to Apply Eyeshadow
The best color if her eyes were hazel, just kind of a green a brown mix, is to use something with green and gold in it. So we’re just going to go ahead and put that on. It’ll bring out both the gold flecks and green flecks in hazel eyes, kind of an olive color. For green eyes usually the best colors would be browns, golds, purples a lot of the times will make green eyes pop. So any time she can use plums, purple something like that. Lavender will make blue eyes pop too. Lavender’s, plums usually a pretty safe color with anything but brown eyes. Brown eyes you kind of just want to stick with your golds, your browns, your frosted pinks. Frosted pink’s make brown eyes look really really pretty. Gold’s always a safe color though. Always always go gold. Especially the tanner your skin is the prettier gold’s going to look. If you don’t have real tan skin I would stay away from golds and go more bronze or beige. Okay. But regardless of your eye color the contouring tips are always the same. Always leave the area between the crease of your eye and your lash a lighter color shadow to make your eyes more contour.
