Pick Colors That Work with Your Skin Tone

Pick Colors That Work with Your Skin Tone Your skin tone is so important whenever you are looking for ways to wear colored eyeshadow. After all, you want eyeshadow that is only going to enhance your beautiful skin tone, right? If you have really light skin, you don't want something too dramatic all of the time, but if you have olive skin, golds might look better! It all depends on the look that you want too.

Strategic Placement of Color

Strategic Placement of Color The way and where you put color on is going to be very important too. Whether you place the color right on the lid, in the eyeliner or even if you do it along the brow bone, it can enhance something different. So, when you are doing your makeup and are really looking for a placement for the color you have, take in your whole face!

The Darker the Color, the More Drama

The Darker the Color, the More Drama Remember how I mentioned dramatic colors earlier? Well, the darker that you go, the more dramatic your eyes are going to look! If you want your eyes to really stand out, you've got to go for the drama! Black, dark purples, deep blues and even some dark greens are all really dramatic colors that can really draw out your eyes. Truth though? You've got to be in the mood for this and it makes for a great night time makeup.

Start with Purples & Greens

Start with Purples & Greens If you are a beginner (like me!) with wearing colored eyeshadow, you've got to take into account what colors are going to look best … and which ones are easy to work with. Purple colors and even greens are great colors to start out with, because truthfully, they are colors that can be toned down or toned up, depending on what you are looking for.

5

Pair a Color with a Neutral Shade

Pair a Color with a Neutral Shade Whenever you are wearing a colored eyeshadow, you've got to pair that colored eyeshadow with a neutral shade along your brow bone or even just incorporated into your makeup scheme. Why? Because you want to off-set the color you picked with a neutral color.

Famous Quotes

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

What goes best with blue eyes

It doesn't say anything for blue eyes ..

The whole eye colour theory is bull. Anyone can wear any colours. The only thing you shouldn't do is wear an eyeshadow that is a dead match to your eye colour on the lid. I wear colourful makeup everyday and its not that hard, you just gotta do it and blend.

I'm olive color skin and every time i wear blue on green from m.a.c every body asking. I Never wear Black because is so harsh for me. Insted of using Brown liner with Black mascara.
