Eye Shadow Trends in 2023

Eye shadows are an unbeatable part of our makeup kits. We like to have several in order to match our outfits, our moods, but also to associate them with each other. However, depending on the season, we will not apply the same shades to our eyes. Directly inspired by red carpets, eyeshadow trends in 2023 will surprise us by breaking the codes established until then. Follow the guide to find out everything!

Colored Eyeshadows

Spring-Summer 2023 trends clearly put color in the foreground. Make-up is pop with ultra-colorful eyeshadow ranges. Blue, pink or tart green you have the choice! It’s a good idea to mix the shades for a trendy smoky effect this season.

If this eye make-up will brighten and enlarge your eyes, however, we advise you to keep your hands light when it comes to mouth make-up. A pink beige will discreetly enhance your lips without encroaching on the power of your eyes.

And we didn’t tell you everything! The neon (or neon) eyeliner appears in the shows and especially the blue king spotted on the podiums. In felt or pencil, it will bring an original and punchy touch to your eye makeup. In this case, you can also use nude lip and complexion makeup.

Nude always in the spotlight

Nude is a timeless way to apply makeup to your eyelids, but also to your lips or complexion. It has the great advantage of being suitable for any type of carnation and facial style. You can choose a total nude make-up during the day and combine it with a more colorful item in the evening. If you are betting on a nude look, do not hesitate to combine it with a colorful mouth. If, on the other hand, you prefer to colour your eyes, then opt for the nude mouth.

The eyeshadow closest to your natural skin should be applied first to the mobile eyelid. Then, choose a slightly lighter and preferably matte eyeshadow to create a discreet and graceful gradient. You can complete the eye makeup by applying a thin line of liner to the lashes and finish with a brown or black mascara to give structure.

White Eye Shadow

For some seasons, the trend has been to light. The look is not out of this mode, and in addition to illuminators and other highlighters we have recently seen appear the white eyeshadow.

Glittery eyelids

Glittery eyeshadows will also be on the trend in 2023, as they are particularly reflective of lights. In a light shade, they will sublimate the look and enlarge it nicely.

Darker, they will perfectly dress your eyes for an evening or event. The ranges are wide in glittery eye shadow so you can find natural, colourful, silver or gold shades.

Eyelid Makeup Techniques for 2021

Now let’s talk about the eye makeup techniques that are currently popular with fashionistas and influences around the world.

Blue Madness

This year, blue is the king of enhancing our eyelids. Turquoise blue, navy blue or indigo, it comes in several shades that can be combined to sublimate our look by betting on a total blue look.

Even blue eyes can use this technique. Start by applying a base to your eyelid. Then, simply draw a line with a pencil or eye-liner starting from the inner corner of the eye and stretching out as far as possible. Finally, all you have to do is intensify everything by applying an eyeshadow of the blue of your choice.

The Inverted Smoky Eyes

By smoky eyes reversed, understand that it will be done under the eye instead of above as it used to be.

To do this, start by smoothing out your dark circles with a concealer type concealer, then also coating the eyelid. Next, apply a brown eyeshadow to the edge of the lower lashes with a brush. On the eyelid, you will put a lighter shade in the beige or nude iridescent for example. Finish with a layer of mascara on all lashes (upper and lower).

The halo eyes

This makeup technique is intended to illuminate the eyes. It has the great advantage of looking very sophisticated when it is very simple to achieve.

To do this, apply a rather dark shade of eyeshadow to the inner corner of the eye (for example, a plum to enhance green eyes). Do the same on the outer corner, leaving a free area between the two. All you have to do is choose a brighter and brighter eye shadow, but in the same shade and then tap it into the center of the eyelid.

The foxy eyes

As you can see, the foxy eyes aim to look at yourself, not at the doe, but at the fox. The goal of this practice, which is highly visible on social networks, is to stretch your eyes.

This requires a little technique. Apply a light tint to the entire eyelid and then a median tint to the outside of the eye as you move up towards the eyebrow. Next, draw a line of eyeshadow using a bevel brush at the edge of the eyelashes, moving broadly towards the temples. Blend in for a fade effect.

Now you know all about 2023 eye shadow trends. Eye makeup has held an important place in our societies since the dawn of time. Even if fashions and techniques evolve, sublimating and enlarging one’s gaze remains a subject that arouses the interest of many women around the world.
