I'd be lying if I said that yellow eyeshadow was something that was universally flattering and easy to pull off, but the truth is, it takes a pretty adventurous lady to rock this sunny-bright shade! Of course, it is summer, and neons have been ruling the roost, so what better time to channel your inner trend-setter and embrace an in-your-face shadow like yellow? The great thing about yellow is that it serves up an undeniably summery pop of color that's fresh and unexpected, but still flattering, bringing out eye color and giving your look an instant dose of sunshine! From shimmery frost to full-on matte finishes and bold opaque brights, yellow shadow comes in many forms, and it's really up to you to test the waters and see what works best for you... and how bright you're willing to go!
