When applying neon eyeshadows, always consider which colors will look best together. These shades are often worn in conjunction with one another, meaning most neon eye looks feature at least two shades. You can combine neon pinks and oranges or greens or yellows; the decisions are all yours!

According to Teen Vogue, always apply black eyeliner when wearing neon eyeshadows. The black grounds the neon shadows and allows them to pop even more due to their contrast with the black's darkness. It essentially creates a well-rounded color palette where everything gets to shine. Moreover, Teen Vogue recommends applying your first shade in the inner corner of your eye before buffing it out into the rest of your eyelid. Then, apply your second color on the opposite side of your eye and blend them together in the middle, creating a smooth transition from one neon color to another.

When applying neon shadows, L'ORÉAL Paris recommends employing a small, flat brush for optimal precision, especially if working with more than one shade. Then, because these shades are all about their intense colors, always prime your eyes. The primer will allow your neon shades to be considerably brighter than without it. L'ORÉAL further adds that neon shadows can be statements instead of entire eye looks, too. A neon inner corner, for example, can make the rest of your face pop in a unique way.

Happy painting!
