Eyeshadow Shades for Blue eyes
A general rule for choosing the perfect shade of eyeshadow for blue eyes is choose colors darker than your baby blues. Now this doesn't mean slather black all over your lids. This means make sure you add in a darker contouring color either in the eyelid crease or accent the corners of the outer eyelids with a deep color. Almost every shade of brown eyeshadow looks great on blue eyes.

Eyeliner Shades for Blue eyes
Blue eyes look best in eyeliners in shades of dark greys, deep browns, dark greens and blacks.
To lighten and brighten Blue eyes with eye makeup:
- Darker eyeshadow shades in deep browns make blue eyes appear bluer.
- Black eyeliner also makes blue eye appear lighter in color.
- Eyeshadow in a shimmer finish make blue eyes sparkle.
- Stick with darker makeup shades as light pastel tones don't do much for blue eyes.
- Step away from all blue eyeshadows unless it's a a deep navy or smokey gray-blue shadow. Blue eye makeup shades dull blue eyes.
Eyeshadow colors to make blue eyes appear greener:
Eyeshadow colors For Brown Hair Blue eyes
Eyeshadow colors For Blonde Hair Blue eyes
Eyeshadow colors For Red Hair Blue eyes
You can make your blue eyes appear a little more green by using darker shades of green like forest green or moss colors. Even some plums will play up the green flecks in hazel eyes.
When choosing eyeshadow colors, also consider your hair color. Some colors that normally look great on blue eyes will clash with the wrong hair color. Red hair for example, looks terrible with plum eyeshadows.
For gals with brown hair and blue eyes, your pallet is almost unlimited. Lighter shades of violet, blue, pinks will soften your eyes. Using a mixture of darker and lighter colors will make your blue eyes pop. Opt for a brow bone highlight in a champagne, then add your color eyeshadow to the crease in plum or rust and finish with darkest matching tone on the lid in a deep java or coffee color.
Some say blondes with blue eyes look great in pinks. No matter how many times we've read this, we can't agree. In our option, only very sheer hints of pink look good with blue eyes. Browns and neutrals of any tone look great on blondes with blue eyes. Certain violets can work but stay away from bold tones and hues.
Red hair with blue eyes can be tricky when choosing the perfect eyeshadow. Neutral brown hues look best on red heads. If you want to add some color, subtle is the way to go. Apply a neutral brown in the crease then gently sweep a green over it. Stay away from any red or pink tones.
