For daytime wear, look for neutral, sandy or milk chocolate tones that accent your eyes without standing out too much. For nighttime wear, look for dark chocolate or shimmery gold tones that draw attention to your eyes.
Apply a medium tone, such as light brown, all over your lid. Blend well up to the crease of your eye. Blend the darkest color, such as chocolate brown, into your crease. Apply the second lightest color, such as light sand, above your crease color and blend into the darker color. Apply the lightest color in your pallet or a creamy white to your brow bone as a highlight. Blend all four colors together neatly and clean up any mistakes.
To brighten your eyes, use gold eyeliner to line the inner corners of your eyes. For a bolder nighttime look, go for black liner instead of brown. If you’re feeling bold and want to really bring out the hazel eyes, apply a deep plum or purple eyeliner instead of black or brown.
Do a light application of bronzer on your nose, brow and cheeks. Choose a bronzer with shimmer for a striking nighttime look.
Choose greens with warm, rather than cool, undertones. Look for golden greens instead of sea greens, since the gold pairs better with the natural gold undertones in your eyes. If you’re having trouble finding just the right green, you can layer green and brown eyeshadow to create an earthy green hue that looks just right with your eye color.
Apply a medium tone, such as tawny green, all over your lid. Blend well up to the crease of your eye. Blend the darkest color, such as hunter green, into your crease. Apply the second lightest color, such as pale green, above your crease color and blend into the darker color. Apply the lightest color in your pallet to your brow bone as a highlight. Blend all four colors together neatly and clean up any mistakes.
Avoid cool-toned eyeliner with blue or gray undertones, since this could clash with your eye color. Go for warm, matte black liner. To brighten your eyes, use gold eyeliner to line the inner corners of your eyes and blend outward with the black liner using a brush. A purple eyeliner can work wonders when paired with the green eyeshadow as well.
Do a light application of highlighter at the corners of your eyes, above your brows and on the apples of your cheeks. Choose a highlighter with shimmer for a striking nighttime look.
