Summer is probably the favorite season of many girls, but we can make it even more fun with great makeup trends. If you aren’t feeling inspired, here are 25 purple eyeshadow looks you’ll want to try.
These adorable looks, ranging from bold to soft, will make your decision a delightful challenge. Here’s hoping you find the perfect pick!
1. Purple eyeshadow with graphic liner
This shiny purple eyeshadow blended onto the lid and paired with a black graphic liner is perfect for summer nights when you want to feel beautiful and carefree, letting your makeup do the talking.
This look is simple to recreate yet guaranteed to catch anyone’s attention. Paired with fluffy eyebrows and pinkish nude lips, it adds to the overall beauty effortlessly.
2. Stunning purple look
This look exudes drama with its purple matte eyeshadow and thick black lashes. Contrasting with the blushed tones on the rest of the face and feathered brows, it creates a stunning visual impact.
The doll-like vibes of this look accentuate the best features of the face, creating a youthful and fun appearance.
3. Ultraviolet
This electric shade of purple, mixed with many cool gems, brings eye makeup to the next level. You can see purple eyeliner that goes all around the eyes and silver bottom lashes that make a perfect match to those gems.
The whole look seems to be blending nicely into the rest of the makeup creating a real masterpiece.
If you’re considering a similar look, remember to keep the rest of your makeup simple and neutral to complement the boldness of this eye look.
4. Disco purple
This look gives retro vibes, reminiscent of 70s makeup trends seen at disco parties. The voluminous eyelashes create a stunning cat-eye effect, while the vibrant, shimmery eyeshadow adds to its disco-era allure.
The slightly overlined lips, coordinated with similar shades to the eye makeup, contribute to the bold and colorful aesthetic of this look.
5. Remarkable purple eyeshadow
If this isn’t a sign to wear purple eyeshadow, then what is? Notice how beautifully the purple hue enhances dark brown eyes, making them truly pop.
A little shimmer at the inner corner of the eye will make them look even more open and bright.
I also like how this purple eye look is paired with nude bronze tones on the lips and cheeks.
6. A jaw-dropping purple look
For those heading to a summer event or party, this look is a must-try. Apply a purple eyeshadow with a satin finish across the lid and blend it into the crease with a complementary pink tone. Voila, you have the perfect summer eye makeup!
To truly elevate this look, consider adding a few rhinestones around your eyes. This extra touch of glamour will make your eyes stand out even more.
For the finishing touch, apply a pink glossy highlighter to your cheeks. Not only does this complement the eyes, but it also provides a lifting effect for a radiant finish.
7. Purple dream
This purple eyeshadow look is so fun and captivating because of the vivid colors that create the popular “cut crease” technique which makes your eyes look bigger.
The incorporation of a hot matte pink shade in the crease creates a striking transition for the shiny purple and silver details on the lid. The addition of black eyeliner and voluminous lashes frames the entire look, while the peachy tones on the lips and cheeks add a touch of delicacy.
8. Gold and purple
Purple eyeshadow complements any skin tone, provided you find the right shade. I particularly adore how this purple hue harmonizes with a hint of gold shimmer on the inner corners of the eyes.
A pop of gold brings a new dimension and it elevates the whole look, while the rest of the makeup is very neutral and sheer.
9. Dazzling purple eyeshadow look
These rhinestones adorning the lids resemble diamonds, imparting a dazzling effect to the entire look. While it might appear intricate initially, achieving this style is simpler than it seems—all that’s required are some silver rhinestones and lash glue.
Once you’ve put all of them on the lids, take a dark purple eyeshadow to frame the eyes, extending it slightly to create the illusion of larger eyes.
10. Purple everything
This look shows us that there’s no such thing as too much purple—from the eyeshadow and the eyeliner to the glitter! And, just look at the healthy, glowing skin!
Beautiful bronze tan really makes this whole look complete and glamorous.
11. Cute purple eye look
The sheer and iridescent purple in this look is wonderfully subtle, complimenting her skin tone and sky-blue eyes beautifully.
For more definition, apply a few coats of black mascara, and wing out black liner on the outer part of the lid to give the eyes a lifting effect.
12. Gorgeous party look
This fun and dramatic look is achieved with metallic purple eyeshadow and a white graphic liner that follows the crease line, making your eyes appear larger.
False lashes are added only to the outer corners to frame your beautiful eye shape. A white eye pencil is applied to the bottom waterline to create a perfect combo with the graphic liner.
13. Purple obsession
This look is all about purple and pink shades that complement each other perfectly. The indigo color in the inner corners of the eye transitions beautifully into the deeper purple on the outer corners of the lid.
The pinkish-purple shade on the crease complements the nude pink lips beautifully, giving them a plump and juicy appearance with gloss. Additionally, the defined brows bring the entire look together seamlessly.
14. Cool summer look
Purple eyeshadow on green eyes just looks so captivating and makes the eyes stand out even more.
If you want an easy but fun eye makeup look, this is a great option for those summer days when you want your eyes to do the talking.
You can keep the rest of the makeup in peachy tones to really bring all the attention to the eyes.
15. Matte purple eyeshadow
This matte purple eyeshadow complements the same matte shade on the lips, while glamorous lashes accentuate the almond eye shape.
The perfect sheer complexion and sculpted brows create a great canvas for this bold eye makeup. Additionally, a pop of white on the inner corners breaks the all-purple look and opens up the eyes.
16. Fantasy purple look
This stunning purple makeup look would befit any fairy. The winged-out eyeshadow, created with two beautiful shades, adds an enchanting touch to the overall look.
The precisely shaped eyebrows, paired with luscious pink lips with a glossy finish, all come together to complement the flawless complexion, resulting in a radiant appearance.
17. Effortless beauty
To enhance the beauty of blue eyes, a touch of purple shimmer eyeshadow blended with brown tones can work wonders. The subtle yet striking combination highlights the blue eyes, bringing out their sparkle.
By keeping the rest of the makeup simple and neutral, you allow the eyes to take center stage, creating a balanced and sophisticated look that’s perfect for any occasion.
18. Mesmerizing purple eye look
Adorning both the upper and lower eyelids, a mesmerizing purple eyeshadow casts its spell, its hue enchanting and bold. The sharp edges of the shadow frame the eyes, elongating them with a captivating allure.
Enhanced by long false lashes, the gaze becomes all the more entrancing, drawing attention effortlessly. Adding a touch of contrast, a stroke of turquoise eye pencil highlights and intensifies the allure, completing the look with a tantalizing charm.
19. Purple rain
The combination of lilac and purple wet liners, paired with drooping rhinestones on the lower lid, creates the illusion of teary eyes. Yet, in this instance, you appear as if you’re shedding diamonds instead of tears.
The addition of purple lip liner and gloss on the lips provides a striking finishing touch to the overall look.
20. Shiny eyes
The stunning combination of radiant purple eyeshadow and dramatic long lashes can create a glamorous look ideal for night outs or parties.
The lip and cheek combo features nude shades, allowing the eyes to remain the focal point. The highlighter is expertly applied to accentuate the face’s natural contours, giving a radiant glow to the skin.
21. Something about purple
The combination of purple eyeshadow with soft peachy tones on hazel eyes is a sight to behold. The contrast between the cool and warm shades brings up the unique color of hazel eyes, making them pop.
When paired with long dramatic lashes and feathered eyebrows that frame the face perfectly, this look becomes utterly mesmerizing.
22. Natural beauty
A subtle application of matte purple eyeshadow on the lids accentuates the dark brown eyes, while keeping the rest of the makeup minimalistic and neutral.
Brushed brows give a nice frame to the whole face, and this look simply enhances the natural beauty of the one wearing it.
23. Smokey eye look
To create this bold and glamorous look, start by applying a deep purple eyeshadow to the lid, and blend it with a lighter purple shade to create a gradient effect. Then, smoke out the outer corners of the eyes and blend it all.
For a more defined look, apply purple liner to the waterline and finish off the look with a pair of volumizing lashes.
Remember to fill in your eyebrows to complete the look. To complement the bold eye makeup, choose a nude lip color that matches your skin tone.
24. Simple but breathtaking
For a striking look, instead of the classic liner, apply a purple eyeshadow along the lashline to enhance sea-blue eyes.
Apply a small amount of highlighter to the inner corners of the eyes to enhance their brightness further. For fuller-looking lips, add a touch of pink gloss.
25. Pop of purple
The overall look is simply flawless, featuring a shimmery purple eyeshadow and a bronzy, radiant complexion reminiscent of a sun-kissed glow.
This makeup is both subtle and outstanding! You’ll definitely turn heads with this simple yet captivating look.
