Brown Eyes: Solange Knowles
And taking home the award for most eye-catching use of lavender eyeshadow in the land? Solange Knowles, of course. At the Creatures of Comfort fashion show, she stunned with this ultra-pigmented eyeshadow look, set off to dramatic effect with an otherwise mostly makeup-free complexion. To pull this look off, you'll need a high-impact purple that doesn't pull any punches, like the ColourPop Super Shock Pigment in Daddy, $5.

Green Eyes: Aishwarya Rai
Aishwarya Rai proves that lavender eyeshadow doesn't have to necessarily be out-there, it can also be the very height of polished sophistication. A high-coverage metallic lavender shadow like Stila Glitter & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow in Sea Siren, $24, a stylish cat eye and a peachy nude lipstick are all you need to rock this glamorous look.

Brown Eyes: Thandie Newton
Thandie Newton's lavender eyeshadow pairs perfectly with her sequined gown and the look is more than simple enough to copy. A nice wash of a shimmery cream shadow like the RMS Eye Polish in Imagine, $28, all over the lid makes up your base. Then, top it with a swipe of liner and the hearty mascara formula of your choosing.
