How To Pull Off Silver Eyeshadow

One way to pull off silver eyeshadow is by incorporating it into common makeup designs that you're already familiar with.

You can elevate the classic winged eyeliner look by adding a second line in silver. L'Oréal Paris explains that the typical saturation and shine of silver eyeshadows can actually make your natural eye color stand out less, but accompanying them with black eyeliner is a great way to combat that, making this look both stylish and practical.

If you have silver eyeliner, then you can follow the tutorial from YouTuber Renee's Days to achieve this look, but you can also use loose glitter or a converted silver eyeshadow. As for the rest of your makeup, either a minimalist approach that lets the silver liner shine or a more glammed-up look will work great with this design.

As featured above and on InStyle, Jennifer Lopez's smokey eye, easily incorporates silver shades into a classic eyeshadow look. Because silver looks so good with greys and blacks, this smoked-out combination really works and can be used for an evening out or toned down for an everyday outfit.

By pairing the look with blush and peach lipstick, Lopez lets the silver eyeshadow stand out, but you can also go for a more daring lip if that's the mood you're in. YouTuber ulovemegz has a smokey eye tutorial that is great for nailing this J Lo-inspired look.
