Eye colour & eyeshadow

Which eyeshadow suits your eye colour?

Your eye colour is a great starting point when choosing eyeshadow. Some shades blend softly with your iris, while others create contrast and make your eyes stand out more. Use this guide as inspiration, not as a rule.

Match or contrast

Two ways to choose colour

Colours close to your eye colour often create a calm, cohesive look. Shades on the other side of the colour spectrum can add more contrast and liveliness.

Match

Shades that blend beautifully with the colour of your iris and create a calm, natural eye look.

Contrast

Shades that clearly differ from your iris and can therefore make your eye colour stand out more visually.

No fixed rules

Your eye colour is the starting point, not the end point

Your skin tone, hair colour, facial contrast, seasonal type and personal taste also play a role. So above all, choose the shades you feel comfortable in. The product matches on this page are intended as easy inspiration from the current Creative Cosmetics collection.
