Coloured eyeshadow, in theory, may seem like an easy feat but can easily go from 0 to 100 real quick.
It’s also likely just that little bit OTT for your average daily wear. But fret not, for bold hues don?t have to be complex?and you definitely don?t have to recreate a ten-step, five-shade YouTube tutorial to wear it well. 

In fact, colour tends to look much more effortless and undone when applied simply but thoughtfully. To show us how to make colour cool?and how to best wear bright?here’s makeup artist Katie Angus. 

 
?I think it?s important to remember that there are no real rules with makeup,? says Angus. ?Treat your colour application with the light-hearted attitude it deserves.? If it?s an editorial-like statement that you?re after, she suggests opting for one colour all-over: ?A bold wash of colour with little detail swept across the upper lid will offer a simple and striking effect.” For a more effortless look, don’t be too precise with your application, blending only the edges to create a seamless effect. If you’re unsure of which colour to try, opt for a cobalt blue, shares Angus. ?It tends to compliment most eye colours beautifully.? We love MAC Eyeshadow in Atlantic Blue.
