Single-shade Eyeshadow Looks

Today we are going to talk about eyeshadows, in particular, the ones that can be used alone as a single-shade.

My recommendations to them have always been to start out with a few eyeshadows that are good as an all-over color, and once they are comfortable with that, they can then play with mix and match with different shades.

My favorite is a combination of purple and aqua. I put the purple eyeliner on the upper eyelids, and the aqua on the bottom outer thirds of the eye.
