Colored mascaras: here's how to choose them based on your eye color!

Are you tired of showing off the usual black mascara, but you don't know which color is best for your face? Don't worry, take a look at the list below and you will find some useful information to choose the most suitable colored mascara for you.

From browns and greens, which soften the eye and are particularly suitable for faces with warm colors, to purples and shades of blue, perfect for those looking for a magnetic and vibrant but refined effect, up to the most pop and playful: fuchsia, yellow and coral. Here are all the shades of colored mascara and their "instructions for use".

Midnight blue mascara

Perfect for hazel eyes, midnight blue mascara also enhances black and blue ones. It is a kind of more refined and elegant alternative to black mascara, so you can go easy: show it off without too many problems. It gives an intense and magnetic look, especially if accompanied by ton sur ton eyeshadows. Being a kind of passe-partout, however, you can indulge yourself and play with different shades.

Electric blue mascara

This tint is perfect for brown and dark eyes, which are further enhanced with the use of eye shadows in shades of brown or shades of blue and purple. It is also suitable for those with gray and blue eyes, to combine to colder textures and eyeshadows.

Purple mascara

This color is perfect for those with dark or green eyes. In the first case, it is better to choose a dark purple tending to eggplant, to be combined with ton sur ton eyeshadows, while in the second, prefer pencils and eye shadows on shades of green. If you have blue eyes, on the other hand, it is better to stay on cool tones: give yourself to pearl gray and light blue eyeshadows.

Brown mascara

Particularly suitable for warm-toned faces, brown mascara is perfect for:

  • who has green eyes
  • who is blonde
  • Who has very light eyelashes and eyebrows


To make the most of it, it would be good to combine it with bright and warm eyeshadows, avoiding colder shades.

Coral Mascara

Not really easy to show off, this type of eyeshadow is recommended in cases of blue and green eyes. Better to combine it with neutral and natural eyeshadows like beige or light brown, or, if you want to be daring, don't go beyond lilac or light purple.

Macara in pop colors: pink, fuchsia, orange, yellow

From here we start with the pop colors: yellow, pink, fuchsia and orange. Rather than giving indications on the colors of eyes and eye shadows to match them, it must be said that these colored mascaras are particularly suitable for special occasions or summer evenings. Therefore, avoid them, if you can, in everyday life, especially if you have a clear complexion or cold tones.

Mascara in shades of pink or shades of fuchsia is suitable for any type of eye: from light to dark colors.

Not particularly easy to wear, like the previous one, if you really want to show off the orange mascara, choose it for an eccentric evening or a special occasion. Better if you have blue or green eyes. Combine it with dresses and make-up with warm shades. Same goes for the yellow.
