Q&A for How to Blend Eyeshadow

The more you blend, the better. If you're just sweeping an eyeshadow on your eye, it's not going to be blended. If you're applying a dark color to your crease, blend it in a back and forth motion, like a windshield wiper. If you're doing an ombre shadow, use small circular motions. Either way, keep blending until you don't have any harsh edges.

White and light-brown shades look best with blue eyes.

Green always works well with red heads. So does dark grey and sometimes even yellow.

Try dark champagne colors that have lots of shine. Try the Urban Decay Naked palette.

Smoky brown/nude colors would look great. Some sparkly gold eye shadow might really bring out your eyes.

Brown eyeshadow will make your eyes pop.

If your hazel eyes lean more brown, then any color will look good on you! If they lean more blue/green, use cool-toned colors.

Dark browns and golds will look great. Shimmery green will also look nice.

I would recommend greenish gold, copper, or cobalt shadow. Any of these would accentuate your eyes.

It's all color theory. If you want shadows that look good with blue, use cool tones (blue, green, purple). If you really want your eyes to really really pop, use warm tones (red, yellow, orange). The contrast of cool and warm is a statement, so be sure to know when it's appropriate to wear something so bold.

Practice, practice, practice. Make sure you have the right brushes and they're clean so you're not blending light eye shadows with a brush dirty with dark shadows.

That is perfectly fine, as long as you don't get it in your eyes.

Put on a little eyeshadow at a time, being careful to tap off your brush, and make sure that there isn't too much pigment. blending as you go will ensure that it will look good. After you practice, I'm sure that it will look amazing. Also, remember to lightly move your brush in small circles when blending, and for glitter, use your finger.

Dark skin tones are the best for any bright colour! You could try going for bold pigments like pink, orange, yellow etc. But if you're looking to be more subtle, you could go for coppery and shimmery tones.

Pinkish-browns, blues, grays, and pastels would look fantastic. Try to experiment with different shades, sometimes we can't predict what looks good on ourselves until we actually try it out.

Grays, blues, and pastels look great with blue eyes! Light colors compliment fairly tanned skin, but make sure to always experiment with different colors! You never know what might look good on you.

Try bronze colors, like brown or a auburn color. You could use gold, or silver too.

Use red preferably, but not too bright a shade. If you're using silver, make sure it's more bronze in color than real silver.
