From bronze to copper, amber to rich mossy hues, hazel colored eyes are the least understood but owned by many. People lucky to be owners of these jewels are fun loving, unpredictable, mischievous and great lovers. Being famous for their iridescence, it is arduous to decide the perfect apportion of the earthy browns with hints of moss greens. Therefore, it makes it difficult to decide which colors will pop out the tints of contrast in them.
Hazel eyes change shades from outdoor to indoor and certain pigmentation of makeup products highlight these minor tints. Makeup like any other is an art and requires just as much finesse. When you put in some efforts while doing your makeup, it all shows.
Here are some tips on how to apply eye makeup to enhance your beauty by dressing up those babies adequately:
15. Fresh Start
Clean and wipe off any previously applied eye makeup to start fresh. Washing the face is preferred as it gives us a clean slate but makeup wipes do just as well, whatever is easily accessible.
- There are more than several ways to do the job. You can wipe off all the dirt with wet facial tissues.
- You can clean all the dirt by using a suitable face wash.
- Ideal, however, is to cleanse your face prior to any makeup applications.
14. Primer Time
Many a times we forget to give our eyes the necessary ingredient to a fine recipe of gorgeousness, it being the primer. Drug store bought or an expensive one whichever suits your skin, apply a small amount on your eye lid, we do not want a cakey finish, then with your finger rub it in gently (in small circular motions). This smooths out the pores and makes your skin makeup ready. It helps your eye shadow stay for a long time and makes the color more vibrant.
- This should always be one of the first few steps to your makeup.
- Leave the primer to get absorbed on your skin before applying any other makeup.
13. Concealer – The Ketchup To Your Fries
Done with those under eye bags? So am I and more than a few times concealer has been my knight in fancy loubotins. With a lighter shade of the product than your skin color form a triangle under your eyes and blend the concealer in so it does not mismatch with your skin tone.
12. Time To Bring Out That Beautiful Shade
Flecks of color give the eye color an ethereal look. Bringing these out with the right shadow can definitely increase the wow factor.

It gives you the old school feel and goes well with perfectly done winged eyeliner. Such contrast provide some of the best eye shadow palettes.
10. Create The Depth That You Desire

9. Would Want To Highlight That Green
You must have notice that hazel eyes have a green tint to them. The green tint, however, is not always prominent. Sometimes it is there while at other times it is not. Gold and bronzes bring out warmth in hazel eyes. They make the brown greens radiant in the eye. Lucky for you that if you have green eyes than you might want to check out makeup for green eyes specifically.

- Blend the eyeliner a little to give off a smokey eye makeup look when using dark eyeliners, works like magic!
6. Blues Are A Big NO!
Avoid blue-hued eye shadows even if navy blues and baby blues look great on you. You do not want to have too many blues paired up if your eyes are already blessed with flecks of the very colors unless off course, if you want to soften the blue shade in your eyes.
5. Lippies To Complete The Look
Opt for your eyes instead of your lips to take the attention. Choose a color that is more subtle and does not overpower the beauty of your eyes. A copper or shimmery gold highlights the browns in your eye. If going for purple liners or shadows, try mauve, coral, red, pink or berry colors on your lips.
4. Clothes
Do you notice the effect of grey fur on those eyes? It is not just the eye shadow color that can help accentuate your eyes but it is also the clothes that can affect the colors your eyes have. Green clothes emphasize the green, while earthier shades bring out the browns more. Go for earthier and neutral shades when you want your eye color to be the center of attraction.
3. Don’t Forget Those Lashes
There is good news for you. Black is not the only color of mascara you can choose with those gorgeous hazel eyes. Browns and purples do equal justice and look equally good.
2. Bronze It To Flaunt It
Bronze color helps in popping out the ever-so-pretty hazel color in your eyes. With hazel eyes, try to keep it as simple and elegant as possible. Enjoy the beauty of nature by simply adding some bronze to your perfectly lined eyes.
