If you thought blue eye makeup was a relic of the '90s, think again: Cool, steely blues are back, and they look awesome on green eyes. Lake says she loves to apply navy and periwinkle makeup shades on clients with hazel eyes.
For a glitzy navy eye like Lucy Hale's, apply a shimmery blue shadow like Nars Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow in Giove. Smoke it up with a bit of black shadow on the top and bottom lash lines, and add a set of false lashes on top.

Makeup for Green Eyes: Copper
Metallic shadow is a great way to dress up your makeup for a holiday party or night out. The red undertones in copper are particularly beautiful against green eyes, says Liu. She recommends the shadow shade Fearless in the new It Cosmetics Superhero Eyeshadow Palette, $42.

Makeup for Green Eyes: Copper
We love the contrasting finishes in supermodel Taylor Hill's smoky eye: matte black shadow at the outer corners and crease and sparkly copper across the lid. Get a similar look with Buxom Eyeshadow Bar Single Shadow, $12, in Bronzed Bod.

Makeup for Green Eyes: Peach
Lake points to peach as another favorite shade of eye makeup for green eyes, particularly those with dark complexions. "Orange-y pinks are amazing on these women," says Lake.
To really enhance green eyes, try a monochromatic makeup look, like Elle Fanning's with peachy shades on the eyes, lips and cheeks; a multipurpose product like Ilia Multistick, $34, in All of Me makes this easy.
