As for colored eyeshadow, Prior says some basic knowledge of color theory can help. If you want your eyes and frames to stand out, you’ll want to pick a shadow in the opposite color on the color wheel than your frames. For example, if you have red frames, you should try green shadow to really make your eyes pop. Or, if you have blue glasses, try an orange hue on your lids.

To keep your look more natural Prior says to stick to neutrals or shades in the same color family. (To learn more about color theory and makeup, click here.)
