Eyeshadow Shades Go Bright Eye Shadow Color

Color can’t hurt you ladies, and, in fact, it’s good for you to try a playful, bright look on your eyes for a girl’s night out or special occasion.   

When a bold eye takes center stage, the one rule is to keep those eyebrows tidily groomed and, ideally, the rest of your makeup clean and simple on not-too-made-up skin.  The look is fun, and fresh, not drag queen goes to karaoke.  You may also want to keep hairstyles smooth.

When color is on the menu, as with most other eye color applications, start off by patting on a bit of a good eye base (Benefit’s Lemon Aid or MAC paint in Untitled).  Don’t be too heavy-handed though, or creasing may occur.
       
Also, when applying color, remember that it’s easier to start out with a little and build to the full color that you desire.  It’s no fun to accidentally apply too much and have to break out the makeup remover and start over!

 

Pink and Green Shadow/Liner
Eyeshadow Shades Go Bright Eye Shadow Color

Bright Eyeshadow TechniquesStart by sweeping a warm pink eye shadow all over your eyelid. 

With a soft crease brush, apply a bright fuchsia color in the outer part of the crease of the eye, and blend, blend, blend to build color.

Using the same bright fuchsia and a very fine eyeliner brush, draw a thin line as close as possible to upper lashes.

Grab a shimmer white shadow (MAC Nylon, maybe), and highlight the area just under the eyebrow arch, as well as the inside corner of eyes.

Now onto the bottom lid.  Line just inside the bottom inner rim with a white eye pencil.

Using either a lime green shadow and angled eyeliner brush or a lime green pencil, draw a fine line from the inner corner and extended slightly outside the outer corner. 

Finish with a few coats of black mascara.

 

Orange and Teal Shadow

Bright Eyeshadow Techniques

Start with a bright, highly pigmented orange eye shadow.  Using a small shadow brush, apply color from the inside corner to the middle of the eyelid.  Repeat along the bottom lash line, just a bit thicker than you would normally line, but still following eye contour.

With another firm, small brush apply bright teal shadow to the outside corner crease, and blend in until it meets the orange color.  Repeat underneath the eye as well.

Highlight under arch of brow with a shimmery white color.

Use a darker blue eyeliner pencil to line inside the lower lid and closely along the upper lash line.  The line should get thicker as it extends outward. 

Finish with several coats of black mascara.



Magenta and Bronze

Bright Eyeshadow Techniques

Using a rich magenta color, shadow the entire eyelid up into the crease and underneath the eye as well.  Blend out any visible lines without losing color.

Take your shimmery bronze shadow and blend along the outer shape of magenta shadow.  Continue to blend like crazy to diminish the appearance of any harsh lines.
With a sharpened black eye pencil, line the inner rim of eye.  Finish with black mascara.

Eye Shadow Make Up Tips

Clear bright eye shadow colors can be found in Benefit Eye Shadow, Nars Eyeshadow, Clinique Eyeshadow, Revlon Eyeshadow, and YSL Eye Shadow.

A cheap eye shadow is not always the best eye shadow, some cheap shadows will fade off very fast. You will need a eyeshadow primer when wearing these.

Eyeshadow makeup is available in powder, cream, pencil, stick, liquid. Eyeshadow textures come in glitter, matte, metallic waterproof, and smudge proof.

Eye Shadow Palettes offer a rainbow of bright shades and color, pink, grey, silver, black, white, yellow, green, gold, purple, and blue. Watch for dramatic surprise combinations of any of the above.

Trendy eye shadow sets with a trio of colors are a good bet, taking the guess work out of matching or blending color shades.
