best makeup tips for brown eyes?

i have light brown eyes, and i wanted to know what color eye shadow i can use to make then stand out.

These are the eyeshadow colors you should wear for brown eyes: Bronze, copper, gold, silver, black, gray, pink, peach, dark purple, lavendar, forest green, magenta, burgundy, champagne, etc. Brown eyes have the most choices when it comes to makeup actually. For those try Loreal, Covergirl, Almay, and Physicians Formula. In my opinion, they are the best eyeshadows that are the most pigmented and affordable that you can buy in drugstores.

More specifically try this smokey eye look:

Spread a light gray or silver eyeshadow all over the lid. Then put a dark black eyeshadow in the crease. Make sure to blend with your eyeshadow brush to avoid harsh lines.

Then line the top and bottom eye with black eyeliner and smudge with a Q-tip or smudger to get that soft and smokey look.

Next, curl lashes and apply two coats of mascara and your done.

Hope I helped.

    You are supposed to use a shade that is exactly the opposite. For example, the oposite of hazel eyes is purple so i’ll wear purple eyeliner. You should go to your local drug store makeup aisle and look at the covergirl cosmetics. They have many different packages that are designed for certain colour eyes.

    brown eyes = blue eyeliner looks gorgeous!!!!!
    for an everyday look try a gold eyeshadow all over your lid, LIGHT blue eyeshadow in your crease but blend well, navy blue eyeliner & then black mascara

    for night – blue eyeshadow all over the lid but dont blend into the crease too much, dark brown eyeliner & black mascara

    if you want to go for something different try purple or green – cool colors work best with brown eyes
    hope i helped!!! :)

    1. If you normally wear foundation, then apply it as normal.
    2. Use a dark brown eyeshadow (not too dark) and apply it to the ball of your eyelid.
    3. Use a darker brown eyeshadow and apply it to your crease.
    4. Apply a shimmery white eyeshadow to your brow bone and in between your brow bone and crease.
    5. Use a black eyeliner pencil or black eyeshadow and line your eye just below your lower lashes. Go to about 3/4’s in.
    6. Use a white eyeliner pencil on your waterline to open up your eyes.
    7. Use a black eyeliner pencil or liquid eyeliner to line your eyelid. As close to your lash line as possible.
    8. Apply your favourite mascara
    9. Don’t apply too much mascara or your eyelashes will appear messy and cakey.

    Hope this helps :)

    Almay has a pallet made for Hazel eyes. The colors are well coordinated and really bring out the color in your eyes. For hazel the colors should range between shades of plums, silver and mauve.
