If you’ve been playing it safe in the eye shadow department, it’s time to move away from the beiges and browns to switch up your look. The best colours to experiment with now? Jewel-toned eyeshadows. Be it a hint of colour to replace your eyeliner, a shimmery shade over your entire eyelid, or even lining your waterline with eyeshadow, these celebrities show us how to nail the look.
