Jennifer Aniston's warm brown eyeshadow that is perfect for everyday elegance

Announcing the launch of her very own haircare brand, Lolavie, in Target stores across America, Jennifer Aniston posted a video to her Instagram on Tuesday 30th July. Whilst we loved the styling of her iconic blonde locks and her neutral milky manicure, we couldn't help but notice her sultry eyeshadow that made her blue eyes pop.

It's no secret that warm eyeshadows, such as brown and orange hues, are the key to enhancing the vibrancy of blue eyes, thanks to being on the opposite sides of the colour wheel. So, it comes as no surprise that when the actress opted for a matte chocolate shade across her eyelids that it did just the trick.

The neutral shadow was effortlessly blended throughout her crease, whilst she sported a lighter creamy tone in the centre of her lid, which widened her eyes for a youthful appearance. The eyeshadow was perfectly complemented by Aniston's lengthened lashes, flushed pink cheeks and a soft pink lips, for a flattering, natural look that is timeless enough to be worn all year round.

How to recreate Jennifer Aniston's warm eyeshadow look

Whether eyeshadow is already a part of your daily routine or you're a newbie to the eyeshadow world, you'll be pleased to know that this look is really easy to achieve.

Simply take your eyeshadow of choice and apply using circular motions, start buffing through the crease before blending towards the outer corner of your eye. Next, take a lighter shade and sweep onto the centre of your eyelid, this will not only soften the look but also give your eye an awakened appearance. Alternatively, you can also use your fingertip to apply the mocha hue to the centre of your eyelid for more of an evening look.

A fluffy eyeshadow brush, such as Sigma's E40 Tapered Blending Brush, is a must, especially when working with a slightly deeper shade, in order to ensure any harsh edges are seamlessly blended.

If you're wanting the look to last all day (or night) long, opt for one of the best eyeshadow primers before applying your eyeshadow, this offers a layer for your shadow to grip to and ensuring it doesn't budge.
