The best for blue eye shadow

blue eye shadow
Moody blues: wear your eye shadow in a bold sweep across the lid.

Rather than brassy barmaid, the new blue is mystical, oceanic. Céline’s models wore eyeshadow that looked like a deep lake. Big graphic stamps of blue. Turquoise, azure, sapphire – they had been styled as sulky fortune tellers, here to predict futures of love and disaster, and money spent in the Selfridges beauty hall. Smokiness adds depth, baby blue gives the impression of a dreamy ice queen. Anything goes as long as it’s bold, and as long as it’s blue.
