In the world of eye makeup, the possibilities are endless. You can play around with the color of eyeshadow, the color of eyeliner, and even the color of your mascara. Are you going for a color pop or a subtle daily look? Of course, it’s important to do what you think looks best. But if you find that difficult, we’ll give you some tips to make your eyes stand out beautifully. Which color suits your eye color best?

Cool and warm colors
First, it’s important to understand the different colors. We look at the undertone. We call a color ‘cool’ if it has a blue undertone. Think of purple, green, and of course blue itself. A color is ‘warm’ when it has a yellow undertone. This includes colors like orange, red, or yellow.

Makeup for brown eyes
Are you blessed with deep brown eyes? Then cool colors will suit you best. Go for a pink, green, blue, or nude eye look, and your eyes will shine. Another tip: a gold shimmer also looks fantastic. Bring out the glitter!

Makeup for blue eyes
Do you have blue eyes? Then you can pull off a lot of colors beautifully. Natural colors like blue or green look great, but an intense purple or lilac will make your blue eyes pop. Prefer to hold off on bright colors for now? No problem. A natural look also looks lovely; sometimes your beautiful blue eye color is just enough.

Makeup for green eyes
If you have green eyes, you can make them stand out beautifully with deep, cool colors. Brown, purple, or dark orange will look stunning on you. Want a natural look? Then use colors with an orange undertone. Got a party? A golden glitter on your eyelids will really make your green eyes pop.

Of course, these are just tips, and you should do what you think looks best. After all, not all eyes are the same (thankfully!), and the color of your hair and even your outfit can also play a role in choosing your eye makeup. Now that you have a better idea of where to look, we recommend experimenting. This way, you’ll ensure your eyes always shine!
