Finding the perfect lipstick to pair with your bright eye shadow can be tricky. Tried and true nude shades are always a safe option, but if you want to experiment with brighter hues, opt for a sheer pink like January Jones’s. At the Paley Center Benefit in Los Angeles, the actress paired her icy blue shadow with a barely-there pink lip. While the thought of wearing a rosy lipstick with blue eye shadow may channel memories of the ‘80s, Jones kept her look balanced by sticking to light, airy finishes. To make sure you aren’t too heavy-handed with the lipstick, look for a shade similar to your own natural lip color, but with a slight pink tint. Use your finger to dab on the color until you reach your desired intensity, then finish with a touch of clear gloss to lock in the hue. The result? A pop of color that stands out, yet doesn't dominate the look. Perfect!
