I hear you girl… you see the pinks, orange, blues, & purples and you think to yourself, “oh, I could never pull that off…”

Well first off, shut your mouth.😂 YES YOU CAN!! 💕

ShadowSense is so creamy and easy to blend that you can either pack on the pigment on for a dramatic look, or blend it out for a lighter, less intense look!!

Here are my top 3 tips for making bold eye colors wearable for every day!


TIP 1: Pick 1 bold shade and mix with your favorite neutrals

For this look, I used one of our NEW limited edition shades, “Plasma Pink Shimmer” and layered it with my every day go to neutral, “Sandstone Pearl Shimmer.” Using a lighter champagne color helped pull the “brightness” down a bit and highlight the inner corner!

TIP 2: Don’t use too much pigment!

My second tip is to make sure you don’t use too much pigment! For the look above, I applied a little too much for what I was going for but I just used my favorite shadow brush to blend the color out and pick up any of the extra pigment. The best way to make a bold color wearable for every day wear is to blend out the color so it doesn’t seem so bold!! This look below is another great example of this!

For this look, I used two more of our New limited edition shades called “Amped Up Orange” and “Firey Coral Shimmer” . These two colors are a part of the COLOR SURGE COLLECTION! Grab one before its sold out!

TIP 3: Avoid a bold lip color!

My rule of thumb when I’m doing my makeup is to pick ONE.

BOLD EYE OR BOLD LIP

When doing a bold eye look, I like to make sure I keep my lips pretty neutral! It helps draw all the attention to the eyes instead of feeling like “WOW SHES GOT A LOT OF MAKEUP ON!”

For this color, my lip color is a little more BOLD, so you can see my eye look is a little less dramatic while still being fun! That doesn’t mean you can use color, just use less of it!! It’s all about BALANCE people! 🌼


I hope you all feel a little more comfortable trying a color you wouldn’t normally pull for on your eyes! Makeup is supposed to be FUN! Try something FUN & BOLD!
