We've rounded up the best vivid and bold eye looks, inspired by the iridescent sparkle of precious gemstones and these have to be the most stunning looks, ever! Improve your makeup skills and try out a few unexpected colors with these bomb AF eye makeup looks
The sapphire is a precious stone that represents royalty and what a coincidence that the world's most famous Sapphire is the one Prince William gave to Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge when he proposed to her. So how can we wear this royal blue shade on our lids? The secret to rocking any colorful look is keeping it monochromatic (using shades in the same color family) this way the look doesn't fall flat and has dimension. Add complementary shades such as silver and black (because these neutrals go with everything) and you'll add a dramatic evening flair to your look! To really amp up a blue look, begin with a black base, black eye kohl works fine and layer the blues on top.
