Re: I wonder who wears those colorful eyeshadows they show everywhere?

@Squirrel Lover   I feel that bright shadow colors are for evening wear.  Day wear is a more subtle look.  Some women don't care but then they end up looking silly.

If you reference more recent famous makeup artists like Trish McEvoy, Laura Mercier, Bobbi Brown, Wayne Goss, Lisa Eldridge, etc., more neutral shades allow your eye color to stand out. Personally, I'd rather see gorgeous blue, green or brown eyes than orange, turquoise or burgundy shadow. 

 

Of course, many youtube makeup bloggers who use those shades, are rarely in the 60 and and over age group.


@Shanus and a lot of those YTers use these colors for the purpose of that video but IRL don't do their make-up this way.  

 

I work in an office.  I could never come into work with crazy colored eyeshadow.  It's not a professional look.


@Lipstickdiva   Keep in mind that the beauty bloggers may receive a lot of that makeup as PR in exchange for reviews...hopefully positive ones. 


@Shanus this is why I take everything they say with a grain of salt.  Some of them rave on and next thing you know they are thanking a particular company for partnering with them for that portion of the video.  Some companies are partnering with everyone and her brother which is a huge turn-off to me.
