Best Eyeshadow for Your Eye Color? EYEMAXXING Explained | Elena Rachitskaya
Does eyemaxxing really work? In this color theory makeup tutorial, I compare olive-green and burgundy-mauve eye makeup to see which shade makes my blue-gray-green eyes pop and which placement makes hooded eyes look bigger. You’ll learn how to choose the best eyeshadow for your eye color, use complementary colors without making the eyes look tired, blend eye pencil without shrinking the eye, create two different eye shapes, and balance colorful eye makeup with blush, mascara, lips, and highlighter So tell me: how do you eyemaxx? Do you follow the “rules” of complementary colors, or do you simply wear whatever you want? Which side wins: olive or burgundy? Is it the color, the shape, the finish, or the effect on the iris? Let me know in the comments. Let’s discuss.
