What Eyeshadow Shade Should You Be Wearing?

Eye shadows are an essential element of any woman's makeup. As we know, eyes are the window to the soul, so we must be careful when emphasizing them and try to successfully and accurately improve our overall vision with the help of a palette and several brushes.

There is a wide variety of products on the market today that can complement your makeup, but how do you know which ones are right for you?

Pick N Dazzle experts have synthesized everything you need to know before buying a new palette, so keep on reading!

But before that, did you know...?

The earliest historical records claim that the ancient Egyptians were the first to use shadows. They mainly used a material called "kohl", which is considered to be the ancestor of the eyeliner and can still be found. It was prepared from heavy metals and a high concentration of lead sulphites. The dangerous lead was processed within a month before the production of the eyeliner. Many of the products used for makeup were hazardous to health and in some cases, even caused death. However, this did not stop the desire of ancient women to beautify.

Today, makeup is diverse and extensive, you can choose between different colours and techniques, but the eternal question remains: "What will suit me the most?"

Makeup for blue eyes

Blue eyes belong to the family of cool tones, which means that you will have to "warm-up" your eyes. This could be easily achieved if you use orange earth tones and warm browns. If you are looking for a brighter experience and want your eyes to stand out, you can use more contrasting colours such as rose ash or create smoky makeup.

Makeup for green eyes

If you have beautiful green eyes, then you are fortunate! Only 2% of the world's population can boast of this eye colour.

Use the purple range to highlight the beauty of your eyes. Warm neutral purple shadows are the secret to sexy green eyes.

Makeup for light brown eyes

People with brown eyes can wear almost any colour. All warm tones like golden or reddish-brown will add more depth to your look. And if you want a sexy and dramatic look, choose dark shades.

Apply pink or green in case you want to emphasize your look.

Makeup for dark brown/black eyes

Like light brown eyes, dark brown or black eyes offer you many choices. You have these options, as black (and brown) form all the primary colours when mixed.

The best choice you can make is to apply a bold shade like cobalt blue because the contrast will ensure that your eyes stand out. You can also experiment with shadows from the green range.

If you want to do more to accentuate your beautiful dark eyes, use black eyeliner and mascara.
