How to match eye shadow to your eye color

Choosing the best eye shadow for your skin tone and eye color will help your eyes to stand out. It makes the whites of the eyes appear "whiter," causing the iris color to "pop."

Blue Eyes

The color you select should be darker than your eye color.
Shades:  taupe, gray, violet, purple, black (mix it with bright blue for a smoky effect), silver, fuchsia.

Green or Hazel Eyes

Shades: brown, apricot, purple, plum, deep khaki, gold, lime-green, bright purple.

Brown Eyes

Shades: copper, bronze, champagne, brown, beige, khaki-green, tangerine, royal blue, hot pink, lime-green.

All Eyes

Shades: navy or charcoal base to define and a powder-blue shadow for highlighting, silver-sparkle.
