So, I will be sharing with you 10 of my absolute favorite eye makeup looks that will really compliment your eyes and make you look and feel like a goddess.

Rust and gold smokey eyes
This beautiful look takes the boldness of a rust colored shadow with the
glow of gold and combines them into a smokey look that really gives
your blue eyes a pop to die for. You can add a wing for more of a bold
look, or just apply some straight shot liner for a beautiful look that is not
so drastic.

2. Neutral Smokey Eye.
This may be the most simple way to make your jewel eyes pop! We all know of many different types of neutral, natural, or nude palettes and eyeshadow colors. This is a beautiful smokey look with the brown shadow in the outer corner and throughout the crease blended into a cream shade that is applied on the inner corner. Also, a beautifully highlighted brow bone! Look at that glow!!

Rosey/Neutral Smokey eye.
A very simple everyday go-to look that is sure to turn heads, a light neutral rosey eye. The best part is that this eye can either be played up or played down. Use more dramatic colors, winged liner, and falsies to really make this look stand out!

Beautiful Blue and White Smokey Eye.
One of my absolute favorite looks for a blue-eyed bombshell is the white/blue smokey eye. This combo reminds me of a beautiful sea goddess and is sure to keep all eyes (blue or not) on you. This is a gradient look for both the lid and lower lash line. Gasp! I can't control my excitement!!! This is way too gorgeous! You better come with a warning label if you wear this eye, "Warning: May cause broken hearts". </3

5. Turquoise Liner/ Neutral Eye
Looking for a simple and fast eye look for your blues that still make a statement? Slap on some turquoise liner on a golden neutral eye. No need in using 10 different shades of eyeshadow just to get a bold look! Still not enough for you? Add some falsies to the mix to really make it radiant! It's that simple, babes!

When people think about colors that actually accentuate their blue eyes, purple isn't usually the first one that comes to mind.

Orange Sunrise Smokey Eyes.
Dang. You ladies can just pull off any color, can't you? Want a beautiful summer look for your blue eyes? Incorporate some orange. This gives your eyes the look of (in my opinion) an ocean against a beautiful tropical sunrise. This look has me ready to slip my bikini on!!

Pink Sunset Smokey Eye.
So, while i'm in this summer/tropical mood and we already did a sunrise look, let's take a look at the sunset! WOW!! Another beautiful look for blue eyes. Unfortunately, these last two looks didn't come with products, so I am looking at my MAC collection and giving you suggested shadows instead that closely dupe these colors! Of course, you can use any dupes of your own.
