The gray tint is often found in girls, as part of the overall color. Blue-gray eyes or brown-gray eyes are quite natural. In this case, you can simply emphasize the main tone. But how to make high-quality makeup for gray eyes without impurities? The shade is gentle and calm, therefore, the appropriate cosmetics are required.

Depending on the tone you choose, your eyes can shine with light or become cold and aloof. The classic version is metallic gray. All shades of this range perfectly emphasize the eyes. The only condition is that there is no complete match, so the colors will simply merge. But there are also brighter options depending on the tone of the hair:

• Brown and gold makeup is a great choice for tanned brunettes. It will emphasize the beauty of skin and hair color, but at the same time it will not drown out the eyes.
• Lilac and light purple colors are for pale brunettes. Add light to the look.
• Bronze and yellowish tones - for light, ash hair and pale skin. They will allow you to look calm and bright at the same time, but not vulgar.
• Sandy make-up, beige range - for blondes and fair-haired beauties with a light tan. It will make your eyes look warm and tender.
• Reddish shadows, copper - for red-haired girls and brunettes with crimson tints.

When choosing a color, remember: each of them has its own effect on the shade of the eyes, it does not matter whether it is gray or dark brown. Decide what impression you want to make:

• Expressive look: metallic shades, copper, bronze, terracotta, peach, brick.
• Light image: chocolate, coffee, burgundy, brown. Although the colors are dark, the effect is calm.
• Dramatic look: purple, turquoise, emerald, caramel.

A universal way to do makeup for gray eyes is to use light metallic eyeshadow. For example, gold or bronze, which are great for both gray and brown eyes for every day. Copper is in perfect harmony with red hair color, as reddish shades in the shadows and hairstyle are combined with each other. Mother-of-pearl also emphasizes the tenderness of the look. However, remember the relevance: for everyday make-up, shades are needed much more muted.

Chameleon eyes

Since the gray is quite neutral, it is easy to turn it into a close one. For example, add a little blueness or yellowness. Makeup artists have long practiced this kind of magic with the help of cosmetics.

• To make gray eyes slightly green, use red or purple eye shadow. In contrast, the greenish tints will become brighter. For brunettes, it is better to choose softer shades, such as lilac. For light brown and red hair, terracotta shadows are ideal.
• An easy way to accentuate the green in gray eyes is to use green eyeshadow. In combination with brown mascara and eyeliner, an expressive green make-up seems to convey a little of its tone to the eyes.
• Use pastel shadows to accentuate blue tones in gray eyes. This will increase the effect several times. If the blue tone is weak, you can emphasize it in contrast with yellow or golden shadows.
• A bit of light silvery eye shadow on the inner corner of the eye will visibly lighten the gray tint.

Of course, there is no point in waiting for some miracles. Beautiful makeup for gray eyes will not turn them green or blue, but if your shade has slight light overflows, they will become noticeably brighter. You can easily find relevant examples in the photo in this article.

Prohibitions

For any shade of eyes, there are colors that will be harmful in makeup. They will completely kill the glamor of the look. For gray, this is a pronounced orange, even if it seems to you that it perfectly matches your blond hair. He will not only divert all attention to himself, but also make the look extinct, faded. As a result, you will look tired and discolored.

The standard prohibition for all girls is not to do makeup with eyeshadows exactly the same color as the shade of the eyes. So, for brown eyes, the corresponding brown tone is prohibited. Gray-eyed beauties should not use gray shades. Such thoughtless copying will erase the boundaries between the iris and the eyelids, the look will be strange and cloudy.

When doing makeup for blondes with gray eyes, avoid too bright colors. If in brunettes a catchy hair tone can divert attention to themselves, then a light shade of hair and eyes will be completely interrupted by such a make-up.

Eyeliner and mascara

Makeup artists do not recommend doing everyday makeup for gray eyes with black eyeliner. The main reason is that the light shade will simply be lost behind the abundance of black lines. If this can be justified for brunettes and red-haired girls, then blondes should definitely heed this advice. For fair-haired girls, a make-up with a pencil looks strangely darker than a hairstyle, watch this carefully. Also, resin eyeliner will visually reduce the eyes, which is undesirable even for dark hair. Watch the video on how to turn your eyes up step by step.

Classic tones for gray eyes are brown and dark gray. Depending on your makeup and clothing, you can afford a dark green or blue eyeliner. Avoid thick lines for daytime make-up; for a light and natural effect, a regular pearlescent pencil is enough.

With mascara, you should adhere to the same principles: if the eyeliner is brown, you need mascara to match. Natural makeup for gray eyes implies sensible colors, so you can look for makeup in a dark gray shade.

Color mascara will add a little brightness to the makeup. Remember: it is worth applying it step by step only on the tips, that is, a maximum of half the eyelash. By no means from the base of the hair, the look will be very strange and unnatural. Makeup artists advise using greens, blues or purples. Bronze or golden ink works well for every day. At the same time, avoid unnecessary glitter.

White mascara or light yellow is an eccentric way to look unusual and attract the eyes of others, but not for brunettes and brown eyes. For light gray eyes, this is great if you're going to create a snow queen look at a party. But everyday makeup for gray eyes is best done in more familiar colors.

If a woman knows how to emphasize her eyes without spoiling their natural beauty, she is a real lucky woman. After all, it is with cosmetics that you can correct some minor imperfections, slightly change the shape of the eyes and emphasize their expressiveness. Specialists in the field of makeup share several rules to help you correctly emphasize your eyes based on their type.

If you have a small distance from the eyelid to the eyebrow, then make-up should be applied in this way: cover the entire eyelid with a light shade, and the outer corner with a dark color. In this case, you will have to forget about the eye contouring with a pencil, such an eyeliner simply will not work for your eyes.

If you have wide-set eyes, the method of applying shadows needs to be completely changed. That is, the dark color will go to the inner corner of the eye, but the closer to the outer one, the lighter the shadows should be.

If you have close-set eyes, use lighter shades when stroking, which are applied from the lash line to the crease in the middle of the eyelid. But above (that is, from the crease to almost the very eyebrows), a darker shade is used. Also, with this color, you need to emphasize the lower eyelid. By applying makeup in the same way, you will visually increase the distance between the eyes.

If the shape of your eyes is slanting, you need to add light shadows to the crease of the eyelid, apply a darker shade under the eyebrow, and with the darkest color emphasize the outer corner of the eye.

If your eyes seem too bulging for you, choose only two colors as a basis: cover the entire surface of the upper eyelid with a neutral shade of shadows (for example, gray or brown). Now take a darker shadow color, add it to the crease of the eyelid and blend towards the temples. It remains only to emphasize the lower eyelid with a dark pencil.

How to highlight blue eyes

Has nature endowed you with beautiful eyes the color of the sky? Great, such beauty simply cannot be hidden, it only needs to be emphasized and made even brighter. There are colors that go well (or contrast) with blue eyes. The use of such colors is a time-tested and valid method.

Blue eyes are brilliantly accentuated with blue mascara. Moreover, there are many shades of such mascara, choose the one that is closest to the color of the eyes. But if you are not a fan of bright colored mascaras, you can use dark chocolate brown. Of course, you can emphasize the eyes using simple black mascara, but brown, nevertheless, thanks to the contrast, will look much brighter. If, in addition to blue eyes, you also got red hair - abandon black mascara forever, it will be too dark for your type of appearance.

With blue eyes, it is best to pay attention to the shadows of the brown scale. This makeup is perfect for you: apply light beige shadows all over the eyelid, right down to the eyebrow. Now take a slightly darker shade and add it to the crease of the eyelid. Armed with a fine brush and dark brown eyeshadow, bring your upper eyelid closer to the lash line as close as possible. Such eyeliner will make your eyes much brighter and will not require any special skills. As an additional accent, you can take some orangey eyeshadow and apply it to the moving eyelid, that your eyes will simply shine.

Any shade of blue eyes will pair perfectly with the chocolate shade of the pencil. You can also do the eyeliner using blue, but then, in any case, do not also paint the eyelashes with blue mascara - it will look pretty vulgar.

To help the green-eyed

Green eyes are not so common, so their owners always look unusual and very impressive. Want to highlight this mystical beauty, but don't know how to highlight green eyes? Follow the guidelines:

The most win-win makeup for owners of green eyes will turn out if you perform it in brown-gold or chocolate tones. In addition, you can use beige, peach and orange shades without any hesitation. Green shadows are also quite appropriate, but you do not need to apply them to the entire eyelid - the color of the eyes will not stand out so much. If you are determined to use green in your eye makeup, be sure to add other shades of eyeshadow.

Lilac, violet and lilac eyeshadows are also great for highlighting green eyes. But if your eyes, in addition to green, also have a golden tint, you will have to refuse such colors, since they give your eyes yellowness.

Quite often, black eyeliner looks rude on green eyes, but gray and chocolate brown are ideal. In the inner corners of the eye, you can use white or gold pencils. They will also enlarge your eyes, if you need it, of course.

Accentuating brown eyes

Women with this eye color are already incredibly lucky, because they do not have to make special accents - their eyes themselves look quite bright. Do you want all men to be at your feet? Then find out how to emphasize brown eyes and no representative of the opposite sex can resist.

The main tool that must be present in the makeup bag of brown-eyed girls is eyeliner. Using it, you can simply make incredibly beautiful oriental makeup. Don't want to become an Arab beauty for a while? To do this, you first need to apply eyeliner to the upper eyelid, approaching the eyelashes as close as possible. Now draw in a thin line for the lower eyelid. Both lines at the outer tip need to be lifted slightly to give the shape of the cat's eye. Use black eyeliner best.

The next step is to apply shadows. Gold, olive and chestnut shades are perfect for you. If your skin is rather dark, choose an olive brown shade, or a dark blue color (it is most suitable for owners of black hair). If your skin is light, choose shades of eyeshadow belonging to the cold range. For example, fuchsia, aqua or bright blue.

How about gray eyes?

The gray tint of the eyes has the ability to change depending on what the weather is like outside or what is the current mood of their owner. When gray eyes are emphasized correctly, their magnetic beauty will become even more evident.

If you are a fan of experimentation and always strive to look your best, go for a win-win makeup for gray eyes. It is quite simple: apply silver eyeshadow with a metallic sheen to the entire movable eyelid, now draw a thin line with black eyeliner along the growth of the eyelashes. It remains to paint them with black ink. This color scheme will accentuate your eyes and make your look more expressive.

If you want to make your eyes more saturated and darker, you can choose shadows that will be a few tones lighter than your iris. But in no case take matte shadows, they will make the look lifeless and empty.

Want to temporarily change the color of your eyes? To do this, you need to bring the lower eyelid with shadows or a pencil of the selected color.

Women have perfected the art of applying makeup for centuries, so you only have to remember a few simple rules, guided by which you can make makeup that accentuates your eyes.

Follow our detailed guide to learn how daytime makeup for gray eyes can be easily transformed into evening makeup!

photo instructions for Day makeup for gray eyes

Moisturize your skin

To create daytime makeup for gray eyes, start by moisturizing your skin. For young skin, for example, the youth activator Advanced Génifique is perfect - it reliably protects it from dehydration, and is also quickly absorbed.

Apply tone

In daytime make-up, it is best to use foundation in the cushion format - they will help create a make-up in just a couple of seconds. Apply Teint Idole Ultra Fluid Cushion all over the face and blend from the center of the face to the periphery using the fingertips, using your fingertips.

In the fall, it is better to choose a foundation that is more nourishing and moisturizing - at this time of the year, the skin often becomes dehydrated.

Apply concealer

• Apply concealer to the inner corners of the eyes and gently blend with your fingertips towards the center under the eyes (we used Effacernes Long Tenue). Try not to apply the product to the outer corner of the eye, in the area of ​​mimic wrinkles.
• Blend the remnants of the concealer on the fingers along the moving part of the eyelids if there is redness. This will make the tone even throughout the face.

Apply eyebrow makeup

• Brush gently in the direction of hair growth.

• Fill in the "gaps" with a pencil where the color is missing and carefully distribute the texture of the pencil along the entire length of the eyebrow. You can use the eyebrow pencil with the Monsieur Big kabuki brush for this - it is very easy to create a "smoky" makeup with it. Important: when applying, do not press hard on the pencil - its texture is oily, like lipstick. Spread it lightly where needed and blend well.
• To fix hairs, use Sourcils Styler Brow Gel to add volume to your brows. To make them look more "alive", brush the hairs up and diagonally (lifting them just a little).

Paint over the space between the eyelashes

Use a natural shade of eyeliner with a waterproof formula to paint over the space between the eyelashes. You can use, for example, Le Crayon Khôl Waterproof in 02 Chataigne Brun.

Paint your eyelashes with mascara

Use Hypnôse mascara for daytime, and Monsieur Big for evening to add volume to your lashes. Important: since the eyelashes grow in different directions (those at the inner corners of the eyes, stretch towards the inner ones), position the mascara brush so as to paint them in the desired direction. Don't forget to apply makeup on the lower lashes as well, focusing on the base of the lashes so that the eyes don't look visually rounder.

Apply blush and highlighter

• In daytime makeup, there is no need to do intense sculpting. Revitalize your complexion with Blush Subtil Dry Blush 03 Sorbet Corail, also dabbing a little on the cheekbones where the highlighter is usually applied.
• Use Ombre Hypnôse Mono in I102 Pepité Douce Neutral Cream to highlight the top of the cheekbones, under the eyebrow and above the upper lip, the bridge of the nose and the center of the chin. Apply a little of the product to the movable eyelid along the lash line. Daytime makeup is ready!

How to make evening makeup from daytime makeup for blue-gray eyes? You will need bright eyeshadow, volume mascara, and creamy lipstick.

photo instructions for evening makeup for blue-gray eyes

The most versatile shade for blue-gray eyes is taupe or taupe. It is better to apply the shadow over the pencil to make the smokey ice make-up more expressive.

Paint over the ciliary contour and mucosa

In evening make-up, the emphasis on the eyes is usually made brighter. Apply the same waterproof pencil that we have already used in daytime makeup in a thick line along the lash line and carefully blend with a brush towards the crease of the eyelid and towards the temple.

A pencil can be used not with a waterproof formula, but an ordinary one - in the process of creating a smoky ice, it will be easier to shade it. But for staining the mucous contour of the eyelid, still choose more persistent agents.

Apply eyeshadow

Use La Palette La Rose for eye makeup. Spread the taupe over the pencil and blend with a double-sided palette brush. Lightly dilute the color in the crease area with a pink tint.

Label it with the Grandiôse Liner. Make the line not bright, but translucent - and apply the eyeliner with the applicator plane (this will create additional volume at the eyelash line). With a black shade of eyeshadow from the palette, lightly blend the eyeliner line at the lash line.

Create lip makeup

Apply L'Absolu Rouge Nude Creamy Lipstick 270 Ambre Cuir (neutral to balance). Add a drop of Juicy Shaker 300 Lemon Explosion Bi-Phase Lipgloss to the center of the lips for sensuality and volume.

Shadows

• Don't choose shades of eyeshadow that are the same color as your clothes. Look for colors that can add expression to your look - depending on the time of day.
• For daytime and evening makeup, well-known rules apply: during the day, shadows are more neutral, pastel colors, in the evening - bright ones, which are suitable for a party or any other festive event.
• Be careful with beige pink and pale pink shades - these, perhaps, will dull the color of the eyes.
• Many girls with gray-blue eyes go with any light shadows of cold shades. Blue, white, pink, purple, turquoise, azure and dark blue colors will especially well emphasize the mystery and depth of the look.
• It is very important to be as careful as possible when using the above colors, since almost all of them are quite bright and hardly suitable for creating light and delicate daytime makeup.
• If you have blue-gray eyes and fair skin, feel free to use purple - it looks very advantageous on pale skin, especially if you have dark hair. Apply it not on the entire eyelid, but only in the crease to visually enlarge the eyes.

Mascara

• Choose a classic black version of mascara, such as a split effect, and apply in multiple layers. Black mascara alternatives are brown, blue and green.

Eyeliner

• Choose a shade of eyeliner depending on the color of your hair: if they are light, draw arrows using sand shades, if dark - brown.

Blush

• When choosing a blush, be guided by the shade of your skin and hair. For brunettes with golden skin and blue-gray eyes, for example, terracotta or deep pink blush is best. Blondes with fair skin - all shades of ocher.

Lipstick

• With gray - and gray-blue, and gray-green, and gray-brown eyes - almost any shade of lipstick is combined. But consider the type of makeup: nude lipsticks are suitable for everyday use, bright pink or coral for the outlet version.

Brows

• Use a brown eyebrow pencil, focusing primarily on the shade of the hair: dark hair will harmoniously complement the eyebrows of a dark brown shade, and for fair-haired girls we recommend choosing light brown products.

How to do makeup for gray eyes, depending on their shade? We will tell you about the means, shades and make-up techniques for gray eyes interspersed with blue, green and brown colors.

Makeup for gray eyes in different shades

Makeup for gray eyes

• Shadows of bronze shades will be perfectly combined with gray eyes, with the help of which you can create, for example, a beautiful "haze". To do this, first draw the mucous membrane with a black pencil, and then apply shadows on the movable eyelid, in the crease and closer to the outer corner of the eye.
• Another shade that is perfect for girls with gray eyes is copper. With it, you can create either smoky ice or arrows.
• If the eye shade is light, make-up artists allow you to use gray shades of eyeshadow. However, they should be dark enough to create contrast. Create a “haze” with a smooth color transition using different shades of dark gray (for example, graphite) and silver. Darkening can be done using shadows of a black tint.
• As we said, all shades of purple are great for gray eyes. "Cat" makeup can be done, for example, using plum eyeshadow. The Ombre Hypnôse Mono Petit Trésor in # 46 Hôtel Particulier by Lancôme will work.

Another non-trivial option to accentuate gray eyes with makeup is to use red mascara or shadows. Follow our video tutorial to create one.

Even out the color of your eyelids with concealer.

Apply a dark brown shade to the outer corner. Blend into the "haze".

In the inner corner of the eye, apply a bright red or orange shade and blend with a brush towards the center of the eyelid.

Apply a neutral or golden shade of eyeshadow mid-lid. Paint the eyelashes at the base with a pencil or black eyeliner.

Makeup for blue-gray eyes

• With gray-blue eyes, shades of shadows with a metallic sheen - gold, pink and copper - are perfectly combined. And also colors like red, purple and green, which create the necessary contrast in make-up, especially evening ones.
• Smokey ice makeup will help create shadows in a bright pink or coral shade, with a shimmer.
• For blue-gray eyes, as well as for grays, all shades of red are suitable. You can create, for example, graphic arrows or apply them to the crease of the eyelid.

Makeup for gray-green eyes

• If the eyes are gray with splashes of green, use brown shadows (dark chocolate, bronze), dark plum, graphite, copper, juicy green.
• Draw plum arrows along the lash line and blend well if you are planning on doing your daily makeup.
• For everyday makeup, arrows are suitable - not black, but, for example, made in different shades of gray. They will not look so bright.
• A light "haze" in one of the earthy shades (apply a darker color in the crease) is another option for daytime makeup. Complete it with a green eyeliner made with a bright metallic liner.

Makeup for gray-brown eyes

• For gray-brown eyes, shades of olive, dark green, copper and copper-red shades of shadows (or pencil) are perfect.
• In your case, it is better to change the black eyeliner to any other dark - for example, brown. And draw colored arrows using purple, dark blue, green shades.

Makeup for brunettes with gray eyes

Hide bruises, veins and minor inflammations under the eyes with a concealer. They can also emphasize the nasal bridge and the mucous contour of the eyelids to "open" the eyes.

From cheekbones to temples, blend a coral blush.

For eyebrow makeup, use eyebrow mascara - one that can not only comb, style and fix the hairs, but also fill in the "gaps" between them if the eyebrows lack thickness.

Apply a neutral eye shadow to the eyelid, which can also be used as a primer.

Accentuate the mucous and lash lines or draw an arrow with a gel pencil.

Apply one or more coats of curling mascara to your lashes.

Prepare your skin first. Apply moisturizer and makeup base. And then - foundation and concealer under the eyes. Cover redness, acne and other skin imperfections with a concealer.

One of the makeup options that is perfect for girls with blond hair and gray eyes is monomake-up. Choose lipstick and eyeshadow roughly the same shade and accentuate both the eyes and lips. Blush can be selected from the same range.

To make the border of the transition between contrasting shades of shadows smoother, blend it with another, additional shade, close in color to the skin tone.

Draw arrows looking straight ahead in the mirror so that the lines are symmetrical. Start with the “ponytails”, then check the symmetry and connect them with a line drawn along the lash line.

If necessary, supplement your evening makeup with false eyelashes for a more expressive effect.
