the best eyeshadow palettes for your eye color

We’ve read it a million times before, "The best shadow colors to make your eye color pop!"  Green eyes brighten by purple and brown look best when wearing gold tones. Well, instead of just telling you the colors to look for, I’ve found the best eye shadow pallets to match your color scheme.  Happy shopping!

Brown Eyes:

The best colors for your brown-eyed girls out there are gold, copper and navy to add the extra pop. Bobbi Brown carries a great limited edition Navy & Nude Eye Palette ($60, Sephora.com) to match the color needs of brown eyes. It includes plain colors as well as a few shimmery options for a fun night out.

 

Blue Eyes:

Colors that work best for blue eyes are pale oranges and pinks or silver if you really want them to pop. Chanel’s Les 4 Ombres 79 Species ($59, Chanel.com) color palette has the pale pinks and oranges. Although there is no silver in the palette, the shimmer to each of the colors adds the same effect.

Hazel Eyes:

Warm neutral colors add to the richness of the hazel color. A good palette to match the criteria is Marc Jacobs Beauty Style Eye-Con No. 3 Plush Shadow in The Glam 108 ($42, Sephora.com). These metallic gold and brown shades will make your eyes really stand out.

Green Eyes:

The rarest color on the list follows very specific color picks of purple and greys.  Dior’s 5-Colour Designer All-In-One Artistry Palette ($60, Sephora.com) has gorgeous purple/blue colors that enhance one another beautifully.

Get Jennifer Aniston's Look from the NYC We're The Millers Premiere

Jennifer Aniston rocked a "summer in the city" inspired look for the We're the Miller's premiere courtesy of celebrity makeup artist Angela Levin.  As soon as I saw the inspiration I wanted to know more.  The only real difference I noticed from Jennifer's previous red carpet looks was her eye makeup.  Always stunning, we've never covered her breakdown.  So for all of her fans, here you go:

As a foundation, Levin applied FACE Picture Perfect Foundation in "O" and "J" ($48, facestockholm.com) and blended with a Chanel Foundation Brush ($45, shop.nordstrom.com) motioning in circular motions.

To give her a sun kissed look, Levin used Chanel Le Blush Creme in Revelation ($38, shop.nordstrom.com) and Chanel Le Beiges Health Glow Sheer Colour PF 15 No. 40 ($57.50, chanel.com) on the forehead, cheeks and chin.

For natural looking eyes, Chanel Quadra Eye Shadow Spicea pallet ($59, chanel.com). To make the eyes pop she applied the lightest color underneath the brow and the gold color on the lid under the lower lashes. The dark shade was used in the crease of the lid to open they eyes. She finished with Chanel Illusion D'Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Ebloui ($36, chanel.com) to frame the eye.

To finish it off, Levin applied Chanel Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in InSouciance ($32, chanel.com).
