12 Orange Eyeshadow Looks for Fall 2020

July 23, 2020

On the hunt for a new makeup trend to try? Why not branch out and rock a colorful shade of eye shadow? Orange eyeshadow, in particular, is seriously on-trend and the perfect way to add some color to your makeup look. Keep reading to find 12 orange eyeshadow looks to help you embrace this colorful eye makeup trend for fall.

#1. ORANGE LIDS

Go all-in with this makeup trend and cover your eyelid in a wash of orange. Follow the eyeshadow tutorial below to get the look.

STEP #1: PRIME YOUR EYES

Before you get to applying your eye shadow, it’s important to layer on an eye primer. This will create a smooth surface for your makeup application, increase the lifespan of your shadow, and allow its color to appear more vibrant.

STEP #2: APPLY YOUR EYE SHADOW

Grab your orange eyeshadow of choice and apply it all over your lid. Use a fluffy brush to blend the color into your crease and soften any harsh lines.

STEP #3: APPLY MASCARA

Since this orange eye shadow look is bolder than some, there’s no need for eyeliner. Simply coat your lashes with a layer or two of your favorite mascara—we love the L’Oréal Paris Unlimited Lash Lifting and Lengthening Washable Mascara—and you’re good to go!

#2. ORANGE AND GOLD

Bring on the shimmer! If you’re a fan of eyeshadow looks that sparkle, you’ll love this gold and orange combo.

STEP #1. PRIME YOUR EYES

Apply eye primer before reaching for the rest of your eye makeup.

STEP #2. COLOR YOUR LIDS

Grab your gold eyeshadow, and apply it all over your lids. Try using a shimmering formula, like the L’Oréal Paris Brilliant Eyes Shimmer Liquid Eye Shadow Makeup in Crown Gold.

STEP #3. ADD YOUR ORANGE

Next, use a matte orange eyeshadow to define your crease. Take care to blend well between your orange and gold shades for a seamless look. Then, use a small, flat eyeshadow brush to apply the same matte orange shade along your lower lash line. Gently smudge the shadow for a smoky effect.

STEP #4. COAT YOUR LASHES

To finish off your look, layer on a few coats of the L’Oréal Paris Bambi Eye Washable Mascara, Lasting Volume.

#3. ORANGE CREASE

Ease into the trend of orange eyeshadow looks by using an orange shade to define your crease. Here’s what to do.

STEP #1: PRIME YOUR LID

As we mentioned above, priming your eyes before applying your eye makeup is key for a look that lasts!

STEP #2: APPLY YOUR BASE

It’s time to start your eye shadow! To allow your orange shadow (which you’ll be applying later) to truly stand out, you’ll want to first use a neutral shade on your eyelid. For daytime, try a nude eye shadow. We recommend the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Monos Eyeshadow in Paris Beach. For a nighttime look, use a taupe shade like the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Monos Eyeshadow in Cafe Au Lait.

STEP #3: ADD SOME COLOR

Next, you can grab your orange eyeshadow. Place the color in your crease and make sure to blend well using a fluffy brush.

STEP #4: SWIPE ON EYELINER

While this isn’t a 100% necessary step, adding eyeliner to this eye makeup look can really take it to the next level. Emphasize your pop of orange by using a liquid liner to create your sharpest winged eyeliner look.

Editor’s note: Need a new liner? Give the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Flash Cat Eye Waterproof Brush Tip Liquid Eyeliner in Black a try!

STEP #5: COAT YOUR LASHES

Complete the look by applying some mascara. To give your fringe voluptuous volume and intense length, apply a few coats of the L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Washable Mascara.

#4. ORANGE AND PURPLE

One color combo you may not have thought about? Purple and orange! Together, these two bold shades work together to create a fun, eye-catching makeup look.

STEP #1. PRIME YOUR EYES

You know the drill! Smooth on an eye primer to prep your lids.

STEP #2. GET SMOKY

Next, break out the orange eyeshadow and create an orange smokey eye. Start by applying the L’Oréal Paris Brilliant Eyes Shimmer Liquid Eye Shadow Makeup in Precious Lava to your lids. Then, use a darker, matte orange shade in your crease.

STEP #3. LINE YOUR LOWER LASH LINE

Reach for a purple eyeliner, like the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Last Waterproof, Up to 24HR Pencil Eyeliner in Purple, and line your lower lash line. Carefully smudge the line for a softer look.

STEP #4. APPLY MASCARA

Grab your favorite tube of mascara and apply a few layers to finish your orange eyeshadow look.

#5. ORANGE AND YELLOW

It’s no secret that orange and yellow pair beautifully together, which is why it should come as no surprise that we have an orange and yellow eyeshadow look on our list. Here’s what to do:

STEP #1. APPLY AN EYE PRIMER

Smooth on an eye primer to prep your lids for the eye makeup that is to follow.

STEP #2. COLOR YOUR LIDS

Apply a mustard yellow eyeshadow to your lids. This deeper, muted yellow shade is perfect for fall!

STEP #3. DEFINE YOUR CREASE

Using a fluffy blending brush, apply a rusty orange eyeshadow in your crease. Blend well between both shades for a flawless look.

STEP #4. LINE YOUR EYES

To take the look up a notch, use the L’Oréal Paris Infallible The Super Slim Liquid Eyeliner in Brown to line your upper lash line. Feel free to flick it out at the end with a wing!

STEP #5. COAT YOUR LASHES

To coordinate with your brown eyeliner, give your lashes a boost with a brown mascara.

#6: ORANGE UNDER-EYES

Want another subtle way to add orange eye shadow to your next makeup look? Try lining your lash line with the popping hue! Read on to find out how.

STEP #1: APPLY EYE PRIMER

Prep your lids for your orange eyeshadow—and the rest of your eye makeup—by applying an eye primer.

STEP #2: CREATE A BROWN SMOKY EYE

We love pairing this orange eye shadow look with a brown smoky eye. The look is neutral enough not to take the spotlight away from the orange hue but bold enough to really define your eyes. Not sure how to do a brown smoky eye? Head on over to our article, How to Create a Brown Smoky Eye, for a step-by-step tutorial.

STEP #3: GRAB YOUR ORANGE EYESHADOW

It’s time for the focal point of your look—your orange eye shadow! Take your shadow and apply it on your lower lash line for a subtle pop of color. Gently smudge out the shade for a softer look.

STEP #4: APPLY MASCARA

Coat your lashes, and you’re ready to show off your trendy eye makeup look! Apply a few coats of the L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Mystic Black for an intensely black fringe.

#7. ORANGE AND BRONZE

Another metallic orange eyeshadow look? Don’t mind if we do!

STEP #1. PRIME YOUR EYES

By now, you get the idea!

STEP #2. COLOR YOUR LIDS

Give your lids an all-over wash of orange eyeshadow. Then, pop the L’Oréal Paris Brilliant Eyes Shimmer Liquid Eye Shadow Makeup in Bronze Light onto the center of each lid.

STEP #3. LINE YOUR EYES

To continue your bronze look, line your lower lash line with the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Last Waterproof, Up to 24HR Pencil Eyeliner in Bronze.

STEP #4. COAT YOUR LASHES

You know the drill—apply a few coats of mascara to complete your orange eyeshadow look.

#8. PEACH SMOKY EYE

Not sure if you’re ready to commit to bold orange eyeshadow looks? For a subtler take on the trend, consider playing with peach tones.

STEP #1. PRIME YOUR EYES

Apply an eye primer to prep your lids.

STEP #2. GRAB YOUR EYESHADOW

For this look, make your life easier by using an eyeshadow palette with all the colors you need—the L’Oréal Paris Paradise Enchanted Scented Eyeshadow Palette. First, use a light peach shade to color your lids. Then, pop the coral eyeshadow into your crease for a bit of subtle definition. To further define your eyes, use the lightest shade in the palette to brighten your inner corner.

STEP #3. APPLY MASCARA

To keep the rest of your look simple, skip the eyeliner and apply a few coats of brown mascara instead.

#9: ORANGE AND BLUE EYESHADOW

Give your look just a touch of orange by using your eyeshadow to highlight your inner corner. While this look could be paired with a nude lid, it can also be the finishing touch for a bold, blue eye makeup look. We’re here to spill the details on the latter, so you can create the ultimate orange and blue eyeshadow look.

STEP #1: PRIME YOUR EYES

As with our other orange eyeshadow looks, begin by applying an eye primer to your lid.

STEP #2: COLOR YOUR LID

Give your lids a wash of gold—yes, you read that right! You can use the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Crushed Foils Metallic Eye Shadow in Gilded Gold to do just that.

STEP #3: DEFINE YOUR CREASE

Next, define your crease with a matte light brown shade, like the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Monos Eyeshadow in Matte It Up. Use a fluffy brush to blend out the color.

STEP #4: BRIGHTEN UP

Think it’s time for your orange eyeshadow? Not quite! Rather, reach for complementary blue shade to line your lower lash line. We love the look of a bright blue eyeshadow like the L’Oréal Paris Infallible 24 HR Eye Shadow in Endless Sea.

STEP #5: GRAB YOUR ORANGE

Reach for your orange eyeshadow and pop it onto your inner corner. How’s that for a bright, beautiful, colorful look?

STEP #6: APPLY MASCARA

Almost done! Finish off your look by coating your lashes with the L’Oréal Paris Telescopic Original Waterproof Lengthening Mascara.

#10. ORANGE AND PINK

Bring a bit of the summer with you into fall by creating this pink and orange eyeshadow look.

STEP #1. APPLY AN EYE PRIMER

Start with eyeshadow primer to prep your eyes.

STEP #2. GRAB YOUR PINK EYESHADOW

While almost any shade of pink can be used to create this look, we’re partial to a bright, matte shadow. Use one all over your lids.

STEP #3. DEFINE YOUR CREASE

Time for your orange eyeshadow! Use a vibrant, true orange shade and apply it to your crease. Blend well with a fluffy blending brush.

STEP #4. APPLY MASCARA

Since you’re working with such bold colors, skip the eyeliner and apply a few coats of mascara to complete your look.

#11. ORANGE AND GREEN

For something a bit more outside-of-the-box, try using orange and green eyeshadow for an eye-catching look.

STEP #1. PRIME YOUR EYES

To prepare for your orange eyeshadow look, apply an eye primer.

STEP #2. COLOR YOUR LIDS

Smooth an orange eyeshadow all over your lids. Rather than applying a crease color, for this look, simply use a fluffy blending brush to blend the same shade into your crease for a seamless wash of color.

STEP #3. LINE YOUR LOWER LASH LINE

Use a green eyeshadow, like the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Monos Eyeshadow in Green Promenade, and a small, flat eyeshadow brush to line your lower lash line and create a stunning contrast.

STEP #4. COAT YOUR LASHES

Apply a few coats of black mascara for a voluminous fringe.

#12. ORANGE AND RED

Orange and red go together like peanut butter and jelly, so it only makes sense that the two shades would pair perfectly when combined into one orange eyeshadow look.

STEP #1. APPLY AN EYE PRIMER

You know what to do!

STEP #2. COLOR YOUR LIDS

Use a true orange eyeshadow to give your lids a burst of color.

STEP #3. GRAB YOUR RED

With a fluffy eyeshadow brush, apply a matte red eyeshadow to your crease, taking care to blend well. Then, take the same red eyeshadow and smudge it along your lower lash line with a small, flat eyeshadow brush for a smoky effect.

STEP #4. APPLY MASCARA

Sweep on a few coats of mascara to finish your eye makeup. Talk about a fire eyeshadow look!
