If you want a very beachy sort of look for your eyes, you can try some of the following approaches for coral eyeshadows.
Lighter coral shades on lighter skin tones and darker coral shades on darker skin tones should be the rule of thumb. The darker skin tones can really sport the darker coral shades and make them look really good.
These darker coral eyeshadows on fairer skin tend to make you look older and/or inexperienced with makeup. The lighter shades of coral tend to look too faded on darker skin tones, while they look just perfect on lighter skin tones.
Another rule of thumb with coral eyeshadows is to pair them with similar colors. Sandy shades of yellow and brown as well as peach and pink shades complement the different shades of coral eyeshadow. Use a pale sandy shade, pale cream, or pale yellow as a base color on your lids, and then apply your chosen coral shade over the top. If you find that your coral shade is too orange for your skin tone, blend in some soft pink to mute the orange tones.
You can wear coral eyeshadows almost any time of the year, but they work best during the late spring and summer seasons. Many of the clothing pieces you might select during this time of the year will look good with your coral eyeshadow choices. Coral eyeshadow also looks great for a day at the beach.
