Pair your purple shadow with a hot pink liner. You can also mix a matte purple shade with a multi-chrome liner.

Black eyeliner always looks really nice with purple shadow. If you'd like to go a more natural route, add some brown to your look.

Question

How do I wear lavender, lilac or amethyst eyeshadow?

Try pairing it with cool-toned shadows or just pat one light shade on the lid and in the crease for an everyday look. You could also use them with blues and greens for a more editorial look. Just remember that if you're going to use tones of color, pair it with a nude lip to keep the eyes the focus.

Question

What color eyeliner goes best with purple eye shadow?

Community Answer

Go for a black or very deep brown. Sometimes it depends on what color clothing you're wearing. Consulting a color wheel helps.
