Blue Eyes
If you have blue eyes there is also a wide range of eyeshadow shades that will make your eyes pop.

- Blue & Navy Shades – Yes blue on blue works extremely well, if your eyes are a darker blue opt of a lighter shade of blue and vice versa. The light and dark blues against each other will really enhance the blue in your eyes.

For maximum drama, apply a bright orange to your crease and a burnt shade to your crease and blend out. Apply some eyeliner and smudge it out, pop on some Luxury 3D Mink or Faux Mink (vegan) false eyelashes for the ultimate look!
