There’s this thing I do, when I casually want to wear a bright eyeshadow colour without it being overwhelming. I like to apply a neutral eyeshadow all over my upper eyelid, then take a bright colour onto a small eyeliner brush, and line my eyes with it, top and bottom. Then I go over the top with a thin line of liquid eyeliner, and ta-dah, a subtle pop of colour! I love doing this when a colour matches my outfit, but doesn’t necessarily go with my skin (like a vibrant turqoise). This way it doesn’t look overwhelming, but you still get the matchy look. If you’re into that. Which I totally am.

I love doing this, I think it can really add something to an outfit and pull your whole look together!
How do you feel about wearing bright eyeshadow?
Thanks for reminding us the beauty of colours! I've been stuck with gold/nude eyeshadow all summer >.<
This is a really good idea…. I have so many bright eyeshadows that I just can´t wear on a daily basis, but I think I´ll try this method :3
