The Makeup Tricks You Need for Brighter, Whiter EyesMake your eyes pop with these expert makeup tips |
Wear the Right Eye Shadow for Your Eye Color Making your eyes look bright and white is all about contrast, and Makeup 101 says to look to the color wheel when you're trying to pick the right color complement to your eye color. "Go with the opposite color of your eyes for eye shadow," says Jacobs.
For blue eyes, that means choosing a golden peach or warm brown color.
Dark eyes are set off by blue shadow. For dark eyes that are warmer in color (like honey or chestnut), Jacobs suggests a cooler blue tone, like blue-gray. For brown eyes that fall on the cooler end of the color spectrum (like espresso or almost-black eyes), Jacobs recommends a warmer blue, like periwinkle, to offset them.
Though the opposite of green is red, a crimson eye shadow will just bring out any redness in your eyes, says Jacobs. Opt for brick or purple shadow.
