Urban Decay Eyeshadow Colors

There are so many gorgeous eyeshadow colors made by Urban Decay. How do you choose which one will look as good on you as it does in the store?

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Step 1

Take your skin tone into consideration. The darker your skin tone, the brighter the color eye shadow you can wear. Urban decay has some really bright eyeshadows, so this is important if you are wearing it to work and don't want a dramatic look.
Step 2

Think about where you will be wearing your Urban Decay eyeshadow. If you are going to a club, wear bright colors regardless of your skin tone! If you are going to work, tone it down. Unless, of course, you work at the club!
Step 3

Think about the image you want to project. If you are in your forties, you can still wear Urban Decay, but you might want to pass on the bright blue color.
Step 4

Take into account the color of your eyes. Purple eyeshadows look great with hazel eyes. Blue eyeshadows compliment green eyes, as do browns.
Step 5

If you want a really wild look, try Peace, Graffiti, Heat or Adore. These colors will really make your eyes pop. If you wear these colors, go easy on your lipstick!
Step 6

For a more sedate look, try Shag or Underground with a touch of Honey. These Urban Decay colors will work for just about every eye color!
