Breaking The (Makeup) Law
There's a much-heralded rule in beauty that if you do a bold eye, the rest of your makeup should be neutral. With colorblocking, that doesn't necessarily apply — as long as the eye color you use is a bright one, not a dark and moody hue. The bright colors will play off each other and make your features pop. Of course, if you're afraid of going too color crazy, you can always ditch the blush and just play with a bright eye and lip in complementary colors.
