A silver dress is a bright element of a festive look. It goes well with massive jewelry, bright accessories, and flamboyant makeup. Every detail in a look with a silver dress, down to shades of makeup products, should be approached with care. Let’s talk about doing makeup for a shiny silver dress to look stunning at any festive occasion.

Choosing Makeup Shades

How to match the right makeup up with a silver dress? According to makeup artists, makeup with purple, graphite, or blue eyeshadow is a classic. However, it’s not that simple. You should choose makeup colors taking into account your color season and the occasion as different types of events call for different makeup.

If you are getting ready for an official event where you should look classy and businesslike, opt for more subdued eyeshadow colors:

• beige;
• sand;
• grayish brown;
• brown;
• peach;
• pink.

If you are going to a party or prefer bright looks, feel free to match your silver dress with some of the following colors:

• fuchsia;
• red;
• green;
• turquoise;
• purple;
• sky blue.

If you want to highlight your lips, consider one of the following lipstick colors:

• scarlet;
• cherry;
• coral;
• bright pink;
• marsala.

If you are going to wear a silver dress, your makeup should suit your complexion, hair and eye color.

• Brunettes should opt for saturated shades of lipstick (plum, cherry) in combination with pink blush.
• Blondes should focus on natural-looking colors, such as pinks and peaches, that will highlight your facial features well.
• Those of us who have light brown hair may use all shades of gray in eye makeup in combination with subdued shades of lipstick and blush.
• Redheads should approach makeup products with care, steering clear of bright accents.
• Brown eyes can be beautifully highlighted with brown, emerald green, gray, dark blue, or purple eyeshadow.
• Blue and gray eyes will look good with eye makeup in grayish blues, beiges, pinks, and purples.
• These colors as well as dark gray also look flattering on green eyes.
