The best eyeshadow shades for blue eyes are blues, browns, greens and golds. Blue eyes can be bright and piercing or deep and oceanic, but whichever shade of blue you see in the mirror will look even more captivating with one of these shades patted over your lids:
Blue eyeshadow looks will naturally complement blue eyes and make them pop. Try Charlotte’s Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Denim Dimension.
Brown eyeshadow looks are a neutral, natural-looking eyeshadow option that softly frames your blue-eyed gaze. Try my Super Nudes Easy Eye Palette.
Orange-toned browns like copper, amber and rust create fiery contrast that can make your eyes appear to sparkle even brighter. Try Charlotte’s Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Sensual Sunset.
Green eyeshadow may give your eye colour a blue-green appearance that accentuates green and gold tones in your blue eyes. Try Charlotte’s Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Emerald Effect.
Gold eyeshadows are rich with warm shimmer that can bring the twinkling cool tones in your blue eyes to life. Try Eyes to Mesmerise in Star Gold.
Any eyeshadow shade can look magical when you wear it with beauty confidence, darlings! But these shades are my top, must-have eyeshadows for blue eyes!
Blue eyeshadow is a bonafide beauty booster and blue eyeshadow and blue eyes are an infinite beauty match. Blue is the quintessential pop of colour to add to your eye look – it makes every eye colour pop! There’s something special however about the ways the nature-blessed blue tones that make blue eyes sparkle interact with shimmering blue eyeshadow. Borrowing the blue tones from your iris and painting them onto your inner corners, lash line or all over your lids complements blue eyes so effortlessly. Just one swipe of a blue shade like cobalt blue from my Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Denim Dimension and blue eyes appear bolder, brighter and even more magnetising!
Every eye colour looks fabulous wearing a sultry, smokey eye, darlings. For blue eyes, I love to use blue, silver and copper eyeshadows to create a classic smokey eye look with magical, metallic sparkle. To perfect the look of smokey eyeshadow for blue eyes, I recommend taking a neutral eyeshadow and carving out your crease, then adding definition to the outer corners with a darker shade to create that grungy, rock chick effect. Finally, it’s time for a pop of shimmer, and all eyes are on Cosmic Rocks! This star-studded shade of my Hypnotising Pop Shot was born for blue eyes! It has a blue to purple flip that gives blue smokey eyes an out-of-this-world, kaleidoscopic glitter glow.
If your eyes have a unique greenish-blue tint, you can emphasise their subtle green tones with green eyeshadow. Green is blue’s neighbour on the colour wheel which means the two are extremely compatible, allowing blue and green tones to transition freely into one another and create a complementary colour bond. You can use green eyeshadow as a beauty trick that helps blue eyes to appear less icy. It also pairs beautifully with brown earth tones which can be a wonderful way to ground your eyeshadow look for blue eyes. The shades in my Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Emerald Effect will look mesmerising on blue eyes! For a bold green eyeshadow look wear emerald sparkle all over your lids, or try an olive green like golden green for a smokier look.
Looking for a soft wash of natural eyeshadow to make your blue eyes pop? I created my Pillow Talk Luxury Palette as everyone’s dream eyeshadow palette for romantic, soft glam eye makeup. The nude-pink tones are inspired by my signature lip shade and together they work in harmony to create a dreamy, love filter effect. To give your blue eyes the Pillow Talk Effect, swipe on the soft brown and dusky rose shades for a naturally enhanced look, then tap on shimmering rose gold to dial up the sparkle in your beautiful blue eyes.
Contrast is the secret to eye makeup that pops, darlings, and playing with light and dark hues on your eyes can help your eye colour to shine even brighter. Blue eyes often lean on the lighter side in comparison to deep brown eyes, so reaching for a dark eyeshadow colour is a wonderful way to accentuate their appearance. Dark brown, black brown and charcoal shades are perfect companions for blue eyes - take the deeper shades from my Super Nudes Easy Eye Palette and swing them through your crease to create a dreamy, diffused gradient of dark eyeshadow. Just like that, darlings, the blues in your eyes will glow!
Adorn your blue eyes with glittering gold eyeshadow and the results will be truly hypnotic! For blue eyes, I recommend a twinkling, light gold shade like a champagne, white-gold or rose gold to bring out the effervescence found in blue eye colours. Tapping glowing golden eyeshadow onto your lids and into your inner corner will create the most mesmerising light play that makes your blue eyes the star of the show. Looking for a flawless gold eyeshadow to make your blue eyes pop? Discover my Hypnotising Pop Shot in Diamond Eyes to make your cerulean blues shine like dazzling diamonds!
Soft shades of eyeshadow like pink, peach and rose give blue eyes an understated love glow that everyone adores. The playful pop of colour that pink eyeshadow gives your eye look is perfect for bringing out the sparkle and joy in your baby blues! Whether you love bright pinks, moody mauve pinks, or light babydoll pinks, my Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Pink Love has all the pink eyeshadow colours for blue eyes you could wish for. Swipe on shimmering shades like Ballet Pink for a pinkification that makes your blue eyes glimmer!
Blue eyeshadow on blue eyes is such a timeless beauty look - it’s pop perfection! Never be afraid to play with colour on your eyes, darlings… A kiss of blue can send your eye makeup to another colour dimension! With my Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Denim Dimension, I wanted to create the quintessential blue eyeshadow palette with everything from light blues to bright blues to icy blues to midnight blues and back again! This blue eyeshadow palette is perfect for blue-eyed beauties that want to dial up the sapphire sparkle in their eyes - it’s blue eyeshadow made easy! Pack on cornflour blue all over your lids, add an electric pop of cobalt blue to your inner corner, swipe gunmetal blue shimmer onto your bottom lash line, or create a winged eyeliner using deep navy blue eyeshadow. Whatever blue eyed beauty look you’re dreaming of, you can find it in my Denim Dimension!
