What colour eyeshadow makes hazel eyes pop? My eyes are deep set and hazel. Do you think turquoise eyeshadow with bronze will help? Here is a genuinely good idea that works all the time, do dark gold closely brown, at the top of your eyelid and get lighter as you work way down don't do it as heavy. Apply black eyeliner, liquid, to the top lash line, and use brown pencil eyeliner on the bottom lash line. Do some slight mascara and then your eyes will look genuinely nice! Hope this helps, |
