And other issues come into play where eye shadow is concerned. The color of your eyes and how deeply set they are makes a difference in which shades you choose. And which type of look you are going for - a more awake, brightened up look or a smoky, sultry gaze - influences your decision too.
For bright eyes, apply the lighter shade over entire lid, add eyeliner and mascara and you are set. For a sultry, night time look add the darker shade from lash line to crease. But no one is saying you have to play it safe here. As a matter of fact, we are beginning to think outside the box where eye make up is concerned for the first time in a couple of decades. Lavender, blues and greens popped up on the peepers of many a model at the spring fashion shows. But, unlike that of the playful 80's, these had the classic quality of Old Hollywood glamour - in living color. If playing with color, choose one shade with a matching liner. If skin tends to be on the dry side powder shadow may cause lids to look crepey. Try mixing a bit of powder shadow with a drop or two of rosehip oil. Apply with fingertip. This creates a moisturizing cream shadow that offers color and drama without the drying effect. Another bonus, the oil provides gentle anti-aging benefits. The right eye shadow color, along with proper application, can provide stunning results and mix things up a bit.
