Bold, dramatic eye shadow is perfect for evening, while subtler shades will work best in many daytime situations. Simple brown, tan, pink and silver eye shadow shades and grey and brown eye liners, mascaras and accent shadows are great choices for work, school and lunch with friends. Bright, highly saturated colors, such as yellow and blue, make a statement and will impress and stand out at parties, nightclubs and dinners. Use your personality and eye shade to choose eye shadow colors and remember to balance venue and activity.\r\n

    \r\n 9.Complement your outfit. If you have several eye shadow colors that look great on you and will work for the event and time of day, choose an eye shadow that goes with what you are wearing. Green is red's complementary color, so muted green eye shadow is a good choice when wearing red. Choose a complementary color rather than an eye shadow color that directly matches your outfit. Pink and brown complement each other in a subtle way, while grey and black together make a bolder statement.\r\n

Neutral eye shadow shades, such as beige, fawn, tan, light brown and subtle silver, are perfect when you're having a difficult time finding the right shades for you. Subtle, neutral shades look good with almost anything and still enhance your eyes' natural beauty.\r\n
