24 Makeup Looks That Perfectly Complement Blue Eyes

Classic Glam

Sometimes you can’t go wrong with a classic glam look consisting of matte foundation, sculpted brows, a winged eyeliner and matte red lips.

Cool Colors

If you want to try a bolder, colorful eye makeup look, stick to cool colors like greens and purples that will match well with your blue eyes.

Bedazzled Blue

Rhinestone-encrusted eyelids pack quite the punch. We like how the makeup artist stuck to a monochromatic palette of blue eyeshadow with blue gems. It’s a win in our book, no matter your eye color.

Warm Golden Eyeshadow

Just like our tutorial, this photo proves that warm gold and yellow shades can work really well for blue eyes.

A Smoky Wing

A diffused, smoky wing is softer than a typical liquid liner wing, making it a great option for an everyday makeup look that won’t overpower light eyes.

Maroon Graphic Eyeliner

Maroon eyeliner adds an unexpected twist to this sharp, negative space eyeliner look.

Blue Lashes

Channel an editorial beauty aesthetic by framing your eyes with feathery, cobalt blue false eyelashes. 

Brown Eyeliner on Your Waterline

Trace your waterline with eyeliner in an espresso or chocolate brown color to make them pop.

Embellished Eyelids

Add a little bit of bling to your eye makeup look by decorating your lids and eye area with multicolored rhinestones.

Turquoise Waterline 

A swipe of turquoise eyeliner on the waterline and under the lower lash line gives this monochromatic blue eye makeup look an electric flair.

Rosy Hues

Orange Eyeshadow

We love this bold, vivid orange eye makeup look for summer. The makeup artist paired shades of orange eyeshadow with peachy blush to pull the whole look together.

Wet Look

The wet makeup look is an edgy trend in which super shiny makeup looks almost wet or deliberately oily.

Bright Pink Ombré Eyeshadow

We think this bright pink ombré eyeshadow idea is super cool, especially how the makeup artist put her own twist on it by adding a strike of metallic eyeliner at the crease. 

Yellow Eyelashes

If you’re a makeup risktaker, take a cue from this creator and paint your eyelashes with sunshine yellow mascara.

Natural Glow

A natural makeup look is always going to be in style. The dewy finish of the model’s skin in this photo is so fresh for spring.

Burgundy Eyeshadow

As illustrated by the burgundy eyeshadow in this photo and other examples on this list, red shades really make blue eyes pop.

Green Eyeshadow

After seeing this photo, we definitely plan to make green eyeshadow a regular part of beauty rotation this spring. The NYX Professional Makeup Ultimate Glow Shots Liquid Shimmery Eyeshadow in Kiwi Killa is one of our faves.

Glittery Purple

This glittery eyeshadow look in shades of mauve and lavender gives us total popstar vibes, and we’re not mad about it.

Glowy Glam

To get a radiant, glowy glam look, use shimmery bronzer or highlighter on the high points of your face. 

Rainbow Pastel

Can’t decide on an eyeshadow color? Wear them all at the same time!

White Kohl Eyeliner

A thick swipe of white kohl eyeliner looks unexpectedly edgy when paired with minimalist makeup.

Rose Gold Glam

For this bride’s wedding makeup, she opted for sparkly pink lids with moody purple undertones and a peachy highlight under the brow.
