Almost anything feminine you wear automatically goes well with pink and purple eyeshadows. Better still, there is such a wide range of pinks and purples that you often can find several shades of pinkish purple and purplish pink eyeshadow to mix and match.
Perhaps the most common approach to wearing pink and purple eyeshadow is matching it to what you are wearing.
If you are a hardcore “girly-girl,” you have a lot of pink and purple in your wardrobe already. Matching eyeshadows to everything you own is not hard at all because so many companies make so many different shades of pink and purple shadow.
Everything from hot pink and punk rock purple to palest baby pink and gentle lilac is on the makeup market. Wear the more extreme shades at night or when you are going out with friends on the weekend. Wear the milder shades to work or when about town during the day.
Wear the more demure shades when you are at home or taking a day to relax and have fun outdoors. Really, the possibilities with these two colors of eyelid powders are endless.
Buy lots of pinks and purples to mix and match and experiment. You might be surprised to find just how well shadows from one brand or company still somehow work well with shadows from other brands and companies. That is just how easily combinable pink and purple can be.
For the most dramatic pink/purple look, put a medium purple shade on the lower lid, a pinkish-purple shade in the crease, and a lighter pink above that towards your brows, creating a sunset effect over your eyes.
