This season’s new collection of metallic, lustrous eye shadows seems to have one unified message: Make like the sun and shine. And why shouldn’t we? Editorial makeup artist Lisa Houghton—who presses powders into the lids of Amber Heard and Taylor Swift—reaches for shimmering shadows to easily highlight and widen eyes, whatever the occasion. “Shiny eyes look lovely during the summer, especially when your light tan needs a bit of enhancement while still reflecting a less-is-more mood,” says Houghton, who suggests first applying a coat of primer to keep colors bright and in place. Houghton also notes that a simple switch of your lip color can seamlessly take the look from day (natural; just a swipe of balm) to night (bold; a deep plum pairs nicely with metal-inspired hues). Whether it’s Givenchy’s Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow—which, in Top Coat Blanc Satin, allows any shadow to gleam—or the tinny teal from Estée Lauder’s Courrèges collection, these eight shadows prove high shine eyes are the ultimate in radiant summer accessories.
