This fall, let your taupes and browns take a break and try the season’s hottest makeup trend: gray eyeshadow. It may sound dull, but gray can be a refreshing, unexpected take on the neutral eye. The key is to find a way to make it work for you.
- For light skin, a sheer wash of dove gray over the lids is delicately pretty. Try Bare Escentuals Eyeshadow in Skyline, $13.
- For medium or olive skin, a deeper gray will make your eyes pop. Try Make Up Forever Eyeshadow in Anthracite, $19.
- Darker skin tones can rock the grays that border on silver, with a shimmery or metallic finish. Try MAC Eyeshadow in Print, $15.
When wearing gray eyeshadow, make sure your undereye circles are concealed to avoid the corpse effect. My favorite way to wear gray eyeshadow is to go easy on the liner and pair it all with a dark berry lip. Perfect for fall!
