 Blue eye shadow becomes fashionable from time to time. Therefore, there are right and wrong ways to wear this color, which has begun to be fashionable yet in the Victorian period, the time, when a bluish tinge, applied to the eyelids was generally considered beautiful and trendy, and it was the definite sign of a girl with this weak and innocent heart. Although, the great majority of women look simply great in some neutral shade of an eye shadow, such as bone or brown tones, still, some keep to consider that the brighter the shade, the prettier they are. Therefore, not everyone realizes that in the reality the brighter the shade, the harder it is to get it appropriately. And here come 5 top tips on the right ways (and wrong ways) to wear blue eye shadow color.
Rule # 1: Not every woman can get away with it. It is necessary to point out that blue looks its best either on women, who have fair skin and black or platinum hair color, and whose eyes are grey or, at least, brown; or on women with very dark skin. And how about women with blonde hair and blue eyes, can they apply blue eye shadow? The answer is that it is possible only during the blue eye shadow being in fashion seasons. As for the rest of the time, one should remember that there is no necessity to try to match the eye shadow to the color of the eyes. Would you display sapphires on a blue cloth? The result is nearly the same. This is why it is better not to match the eye shadow to the eyes, because the thing, everyone will pay attention to is the shadow, not your so much beautiful eyes.
Extra tip: in this time of jewel – colored eye shadows, which one would look bet on green and blue – eyed girls? Remember, that dark browns and taupes always work well for blondes. As for green eyes, they would look perfectly being in cooler colors, such as deep purples and lilacs. Most experts consider that lilacs and purples would be gorgeous on women with brown eyes and black or olive skin, while the right shade of blue can make blue eyes pop. And in case if your skin is of some pink shade, you should try to avoid pinky – purple colors by any mean.
Rule # 2: Blending is the key. There were times when electric blue eye shadow was considered to be great on the runway as well as in the pages of all fashionable magazines, but never on the streets or in the galas of anywhere. Not anymore. Nowadays bold colors would not look cheap, everything one should do is to apply the eye shadow with the help of a professional brush (all the freebies are to be thrown away right now). Yet the shadow is to be blended well into the eye.
In order to have softer and modern look, you should place some dark blue eye shadow close to the lashes and have brighter colors applied further away.
In case if someone wishes to add a little bit of glamour to her life, it is possible to do it with the help of blue eye shadow. A sheer wash of pale, iridescent blue on the eye lids along with a hint of metallic brow powder will make the skin more alive and make a woman sun – kissed.
