A neutral, color-based, smoky eye flatters everyone. Rich chocolate, taupe, deep plum, and a touch of black makes a perfect palette, with each color complementing every skin tone. Top it off with a thick coat of mascara and smudged eyeliner.

Adding a hint of bold color is the easiest way to brighten your beauty routine this year. The idea is to create a color block paint effect. If you want something a little more subtle, try any jewel-tone color, such as emerald, sapphire, or amethyst.
