Top Makeup Looks For Blue Eyes

Created by the Make Me Bridal makeup pros at real weddings and shoots, if your eyes are your ‘something blue’, you will find inspiration here!

Learn how specific eye shadow colours like rosy pinks, bronzes, and neutrals can create striking contrasts and enhance your features for the perfect wedding makeup look!

Warm Tones Work Great for Blue Eyes

Warm tones like copper, gold and warm browns look great with blue eyes. Black liner is glamorous, while a warmer toned liner like a deep chocolate brown will be more natural.

For a more subtle look a warm brown smokey eye can enhance blue eyes without overpowering them.

Shimmer Makeup Can Work Well With Blue Eyes

While matte eye shadows are stunning on blue eyes, shimmer can look good too especially in warm shades. For a bridal look gold champagne metallics are beautiful, especially with a bit of highlight on the inner corners of the eyes.

Light Eyeshadow and Black Eyeliner

Light or white eyeshadow smoked out at the corners and black eyeliner will make blue eyes pop, creating a stunning natural bridal makeup look. Don’t forget beautifully filled and defined brows to finish the look!

Purple-Grey Eyeshadow with Blue Eyes

Another option for blue-eyed brides is to opt for purple-grey eyeshadow hues. They particularly flatter lighter skin tones, so often work best on blonde-haired, blue-eyed brides.

Top Tip For Blue-Eyed Brides

To make blue eyes look wider, sweep dark shadow above your lash line to the centre of your eyes and pair it with minimal liner on the lower lash line. Fluttery (but natural-looking!) false eyelashes complete the look.

The Classic Smokey Eye Look and Blue Eyes

A classic smoky eye is always a dramatic look for blue eyes, especially for brides with pale blue irises. For a more natural look, stick to lighter neutral tones.

Red Lip Sets Off Blue Eyes!

Love a bold, retro lip? You’re in luck! A bright red lip can really set off blue eyes. Be sure to pick a red lipstick with blue undertones to get it right.

Pink Can Work on The Lips AND Eyes of Blue Eyes Brides

If you’d like something a little softer, a rosy pink lip is also a great choice as pink shades contrast prettily with blue. Another option is to pick up pink shades in your eye shadow.

Natural Makeup For Blue Eyes

Of course, soft, no-makeup makeup is also an option for blue eyed brides. No-makeup makeup is a classic choice that enhances your features without looking too done. This look plays up the bride’s natural skin, with a peachy golden tone on the lids and a soft pink on the cheeks. Light liner and a flick of mascara finish the look.

Blush can do a great job at drawing attention to the eyes, whatever their colour. It leads the eyes to the highest point of the face. A rosy pink blush looks lovely on many blue-eyed brides, both blonde and brunette.
