Today I want to offer you for review with blue shadows and all kinds of blue shades.

This color is ideal to wear in the summer, when bright colors predominate and we get a light tan. A blue display in combination with languid blue elements in clothing will look especially beautiful.

When the emphasis is on the eyes, the lips should remain neutral.

The first thing to do is to even out your skin tone, since the blue color greatly emphasizes imperfections. To make the shadows look richer and brighter, you must first apply a light concealer around the eyes. Just a little powder won't hurt to remove the slight shine from the foundation.

You can use a brush. Or you can use the pad of your finger. It will be much more convenient to apply a gray or dark shade by lightly tapping it in. Then apply a languid blue shade on top and blend lightly. Next, draw arrows and enhance your eyelashes with mascara or apply natural-sized false eyelashes as you prefer. This is a simple makeup with blue shadows, although there are very diverse shades, mixing palettes and colors, smokey eyes with blue shadows.

I found several photo instructions on the Internet.

You can do light makeup with blue shadows, repeat all the same steps, only apply white shadows to the inner corner of the eye, beige or neutral shadows to the middle corner, and a darker blue to the outer corner. Stroke and ink. Apply a white pencil to the lower inner line for a fresher look. Looks beautiful and can be worn everyday.

A short video on how to do eye makeup with blue shadows:

Makeup in blue tones will always be relevant and effective. It is believed that this type of makeup is suitable for overly self-confident women and that you need to “know how to wear it,” but this is not entirely true. As time and practice show, with a correct assessment of your natural appearance and skillful application of makeup in blue tones, the result exceeds all expectations.

Eye color

Makeup in blue tones is considered one of the most common types of make up. If you apply the texture correctly and skillfully select a shade of blue that matches the rest of the makeup elements, then this look will suit almost all women. However, there are some peculiarities that are worth considering when applying makeup in blue tones.

Despite the general misconception that such makeup is only suitable for blue-eyed people, many fashion experts argue that this is not the case.

For example, brown eyes framed with blue eyeliner around the lower eyelid and slightly emphasized with blue shadows look very stylish and beautiful. Blue eyes should not blend in with the color of the shadows; they should be several shades darker or lighter than the eye color. With gray eyes the situation is a little more complicated, since the color gray looks different in different lighting. In bright daylight, girls with gray eyes should follow the same makeup rules as for blue eyes, since in bright light, gray eyes appear blue. Green-eyed representatives should experiment in front of the mirror and find that shade of blue that will not look too pretentious.

Daytime make up

Lately, you can increasingly see women at business meetings who prefer blue makeup to all other options. With skillful application and selection of colors, you can create a very discreet and elegant look. For example, you can use a soft blue pencil to create an accent around the edge of the eye, paint the upper eyelid with a beige eyeshadow one or two shades lighter than your natural skin color, and widen the look with black mascara.

Another great option for daytime makeup, which is especially suitable for fair-haired girls: shade the upper eyelid with silver shadows, maybe with small shiny splashes, but not too bright. Using a small brush, paint the lower eyelid blue-violet and lightly shade it. Apply white shadows to the inner corner of the eye with your finger, creating a smooth transition. Finally, complete the look by tinting the lower and upper eyelashes with mascara.

The main rule of daytime makeup using blue shades is not to overdo it with color. Even a rich blue-violet color can be used very discreetly, for example, apply it only to the outer corner of the eye, creating a smooth transition, for example, from pink.

Evening

When it comes to special events where you need to look exceptional, then it is best to give preference to makeup in blue tones. After all, the flight of fantasy here is limitless. Perhaps the most popular look is the smokey eye, done in dark blue tones. Starting from the highest point of the eyelid - under the eyebrow - begin to apply shadows from the lightest to violet-blue or black. Then apply eyeliner of the darkest color, not forgetting about the arrows. Lightly shade the lower eyelid and add expressiveness to the eyes using false eyelashes.

One of the most popular evening looks is applying gold mascara to blue or light blue eye makeup. Such a look may seem too bold, but if you focus only on the eyes, and make the entire wardrobe and hairstyle more restrained, then the image will look very laconic and interesting.

Pink eyeshadow goes well with dark blue mascara. With this solution you can create the glamorous look of a certain “Barbie”. To do this, we frame the eyes with soft pink shadows on the entire upper eyelid and two millimeters on the lower one. You can apply rhinestones or sparkles to a special glue, which will look very original. A pink dress or top will perfectly complete the look.

Original images

For lovers of club life or those who often attend fashion parties or shows, ordinary evening makeup is not enough. For those who want to look unusual and attractive, makeup artists offer several interesting ideas that can be implemented using makeup in blue tones:

• Blue lipstick. Such a daring look has recently been chosen by celebrities. It is worth noting that some people use blue lipstick in their everyday look. In order to achieve the desired effect, it is worth remembering that the remaining elements of makeup should be cold. No bright eye shadow or blush.
• Artistic drawing on the eyelids. You can create an unusual look using simple repeating patterns on the upper eyelid, for example, diamonds. They should be made either in a single color, for example, black, or in harmonizing shades of blue.
• Blue eyelash stickers. Recently, an interesting idea appeared on the catwalks - to use makeup in cool blue tones and apply stickers or rhinestones to the eyelashes. This kind of makeup is not particularly convenient, but it is definitely original.

Popular brands

Let's take a look at the most popular brands that produce palettes and eyeshadow palettes, especially those that predominantly feature blue.

There is a misconception that blue eye makeup is not suitable for all representatives of the fair sex. Some stylists recommend its use for girls with fair skin and a certain iris color. Traditionally, these shades are used by brunettes with milky skin tones and natural blondes. But it's not fair. After all, it is enough to choose the right palette for eye makeup with blue shadows in order to get a stunning fantastic effect.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with some trends for the current year and consider options for creating makeup with blue shadows. We hope that this will help you more accurately convey your mood and highlight the natural feminine beauty.

Blue eye makeup trends

This year, the main trends in creating eye makeup with blue shadows lie in the plane of compromise solutions and combinations of adjacent shades. A combination of gray, green, mint, turquoise and marsh shades is acceptable. Remember a simple rule: the warmer your skin tone, the softer the colors of the eyeshadow palette used with makeup should be.

For blond beauties with “porcelain” skin of a pronounced light shade, the so-called rich “cold” colors are suitable, which create the impression of the unreality of the image and the fantasy of its wearer. For brown-haired women, brunettes and blondes with peach and cream shades of the epidermis, you should pay attention to the combination of fresh greenery and swamp shades with blue shadows.

Contrast of eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara is in fashion. If you do eye makeup with rich blue shadows, then choose bright black mascara and dark eyeliner colors. It can be purple for going out in the evening and dark blue, black for business and casual style.

Before creating an image, you should pay attention to the overall image, which includes the shades of your clothes. The main rule for this year is that the palette used for MakeAp must exactly match the main shades of the wardrobe items used. It is not permissible to use makeup with blue shadows if the rest of your look is burgundy, brown, red and pink. A combination of blue, green, silver and black evening dresses, formal business suits in pastel colors and black with blue eye makeup is welcome.

Casual blue eye makeup

When creating everyday blue eyeshadow makeup, we recommend starting with a thorough cleansing of your facial skin. Then a moisturizer with UV protective properties is applied. Wait 5 minutes. After this, apply a base for make-up, it can be foundation, base, powder, which evens out the tone and masks possible imperfections.

You should start applying eye makeup with blue shadows from the inside of the upper eyelid. A darker shade is applied there and retouched with light movements over the entire surface. Similar shadows are applied to the lower eyelid along the edge of the eye in a thin strip no more than 3 mm wide. Shades thoroughly.

Then a lighter shade should be applied evenly on the upper eyelid or over the applied strip on the lower eyelid. Blend the border between light and dark tones. The transition should be smooth and almost imperceptible.

It's time to work on the eyebrow line. Elegance and clarity of lines, emphasized by dark colors, are welcomed here. It is acceptable to use blue-black, rich black, dark purple for evening eye makeup with blue shadows.

Depending on the shape and size of your eyes, you can use different types of eyeliner. Using this MakeAp tool, you can emphasize your advantages, change the shape, size, and hide flaws.

The final touch is applying mascara. Evaluate the resulting picture and make adjustments if necessary. Now you should choose a lipstick or lip gloss. Eyeliner pencil is out of style this season. You can add plumpness and volume to your lip line using a special gloss with a 3D effect.

Blue wedding makeup

Wedding blue eye makeup can also be used for special occasions, which include a visit to a nightclub, restaurant, friendly party or some kind of celebration where you want to be the center of attention.

The basis of blue wedding makeup is the clarity of the line, emphasizing the fragility of the bride’s beauty. You should not use contrasting colors here. All shades of shadows should be different from each other by no more than 2 tones. Thus, the impression of restraint and modesty is created, despite the overall brightness of the image.

So, let's start with blue eyeshadow makeup for the upcoming wedding. If you plan to do it yourself, we recommend that you practice in a calm environment several times. In the process of training, you will be able to find the most suitable image for you.

We choose shades that will not contrast sharply against the background of a snow-white wedding dress. The shades used must be pure, without any admixtures of green or gray. A combination of blue shadows with blue, rich violet, and light purple is used.

Pre-prepare your eyebrow line. We have already prepared material for you about... Read these rules and choose the right line for yourself that will open your eyes and make your face more attractive.

Cover your face with a protective cream with moisturizing properties. Then apply foundation in the form of foundation. Swipe darker shadows along the inner part of the upper eyelid. Then spread other shades across the top of it. Blend everything so that smooth lines of shade transitions are formed. Apply eyeliner along the part of the lower eyelid adjacent to the eye and, as it dries, apply the darkest blue tone used. Color your eyelashes. Apply blush to your cheekbones and tint your lips.

It’s worth going into more detail here. The fact is that eye makeup in blue tones always becomes the point of emphasis on your image. This is a fairly bright MakeAp, in which no additional emphasis should be placed on the lips. Therefore, to complete the look, use lip gloss or lipstick in a neutral color that is close to your natural lip color.

So we told you how to do your own eye makeup with blue shadows. Now you know the main secrets of this MakeAp and can use it both in everyday life and in preparation for a wedding or other special event. On this page you can see a lot of examples in photos that show blue eye makeup.

For a long time, dark shadows and eyeliners were elevated to the rank of taboo, but now they are back in trend. Before you try to copy runway looks using blue, azure and cobalt shades, learn from fashion makeup artists. Here are nine techniques worth taking note.

Two tones are better than one

Makeup artist May Quinn's Diane Kruger makeup for the Golden Globes party is neat and understated (even when paired with a colorful sequined dress). Mai used two shades of contrasting eyeshadow.

The technique is simple: apply shimmering shadow on half of the eyelid closer to the corner of the eye, and for the other half choose a neutral beige. Don't forget to blend the transition between shades with a brush.

Graphic arrows

The images of Lily Collins are one better than the other. The last topic for discussion: bright graphic blue arrows, even combined with scarlet lipstick.

To create the same, use the product you find easiest to work with (we prefer liquid eyeliner). First, apply primer to your eyelids. To make a clear line, fix your hand on a hard surface and draw an arrow from the middle of the eyelid along the lash line, aiming for the tip of the eyebrows. Do the same with the lower eyelid, connecting two lines.

Experiment with color, not texture

To get a fresh look, don't go overboard with the amount of blue. Makeup artist Joan Smalls Porsche Cooper sets a good example, focusing on the lower part of the eyelid lined with blue pencil. Please note: all textures are matte.

Cat eye with ombre effect

Emily Ratajkowski's makeup features three shades of rich shadows that do not look provocative. The secret is in the gradient. Makeup artist Hangu Vanngo needed just one product in the aqua shade to achieve the desired effect. He mixed the right blue with milky and black shadows to create two more ombre shades.

Top tip: start your makeup with an eyelid base or primer. Only they will give the shadows durability.

Don't be sorry for the blue

Another way to achieve a wow effect: line the lower part of the eye with a pencil of dense texture and a rich blue shade. This is what Olivia Munn's makeup artist Patrick Ta did. Don't forget to hide uneven spots and dark circles under your eyes with concealer first.

Keep it simple

Classic color application techniques also work great. The combination of blue eye shadow and glossy lipstick on Lupita Nyong'o seems more than successful to us! Put aside the black eyeliner - you won't need it here.

Focus on the inner corner of the eye

An excellent option for grunge makeup. To achieve a Kristen Stewart look, take a small brush and apply a tiny bit of blue eyeshadow to the corners of your eyes, building up the pigment by moving towards the edge of your eye along your lash line.

Watercolor shadows

The makeup idea for beginners is watercolor shadows without sharp transitions in combination with eyelashes painted with mascara. Apply light shadows to the corners of the eyes, and darker ones to the moving eyelid. Then carefully coat the lower and upper row of eyelashes with mascara. Don't skimp on color! In this case, it is difficult to overdo it.

Blue smoky eyes

The matte retro lip shade is a worthy pairing with the blue smokey eye that Hailee Steinfeld rocked. The main thing is to carefully blend the color with a soft blender brush to get a smoky effect.
