St. Patrick’s Day Inspired Eyeshadows for Redheads

St. Patrick’s Day is the perfect day to add the most complementary color to a redhead’s makeup palette. Green eyeshadow may seem a little intimidating if you are used to neutral colors but green can be a really fun color to experiment with. It can be used simply as an eyeliner or as a wash of color to the lid, depending on how neutral or bold you would like it to look. Greens come in a variety of shades and tones. From a soft minty green to a dark emerald or forest green, there is something for everyone.

In order to pick the best color green eyeshadow, decide if you have warm or cool-toned skin. The easiest way to do this is to look at your wrists. If you have more bluish veins you are cool-toned. If your veins appear greener you are warm-toned. And, if you can’t tell and seem to have a little of both you are neutral. This means you can experiment with pretty much any tone.

The warmer greens typically have more yellow to them whereas the cooler greens have more of a blue tint.

 

Here are some beautiful green eyeshadows that are sure to complement your luscious red locks:
