Orange and blue are opposites on the color wheel, which makes them complementary. Orange offers the highest contrast to blue yet is guaranteed to match. It's true opposites attract. Whether tangerine or amber, try orange mascara for vibrant eye makeup. If a subtle pop is more your style, opt for shades of red or yellow. They offer a less intense glam look; however, they still deliver contrast since these colors don't contain any blue. More neutral hues like peach or blonde fall into this category.

Tones of red, orange and yellow will intensify the blue in your iris. To make your eyes appear larger, go with a combination of long lashes and bright shades. This style will draw attention up your lashes, creating the look of wider eyes. A favorite of ours is ColourPop's Sugar Pie BFF Mascara. It is a sweet peach color with warm undertones. Those accents against the cool tones of your eyes will make the blue pop. For an earthy orange-red color, try the limited edition brick red Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara. It is a medium tone that goes hand-in-hand with blue eyes.
