How to make blue eyes pop!

Hi everyone!

Since having the opportunity to wear contact lenses everyday, it's given me more chances to try out different eyeshadow looks. Now, I feel like my eyes are small and I've always wanted to make them more noticeable by making my blue eyes brighten up a little bit.

Sadly, this tip may not work with all eye colours - but do feel free to try it out!
I watched a video back in the day on different eyeshadow looks for blue eyes and I've built up some idea to achieve the goal of what I want to get to...

Brown eyeshadow/tones

Surprisingly, using brown eyeshadow really helps with bringing out the blue in your eyes. Using warmer tones of brown will make the eyes brighter and mainly warmer too. I recommend this warm shade from Kiko. It's warm tone and high pigment make it more noticeable on your eyelids. I like to blend these two Kiko shades together.

If you don't have a warm eyeshadow tone to hand, you can always use a bronzer instead. This Boujour Paris bronzer is a great shade to use to have the same effect as the above eyeshadow.

Using a dark brown shade on the outer corner and bringing it in, will make your eyes definitely more brighter in comparison. As the shade is darker it will contrast between the two colours: light meeting dark. To open up your eyes a bit more you can also put a shimmery light colour (or highlight) in the inner corner.

Can you guess which shade I like to use most?
I like using neutral and nude tones in the crease of my eye. This emphasises the natural crease making your eye have more depth. Again, doing this makes my eyes look bigger. I prefer not to wear liquid eyeliner on top as that makes the eyes look a lot smaller as the black line dominates most of the eye. The occassion that I do wear eyeliner is most likely when I'm wearing false eyelashes (mainly for parties!)
