brown eyes

[pinkgrl91]

im a brunette with brown eyes and i love my brown eyes but i cant seem to find the right color makeup to make them pop can anyone help me?

I have the same colouring and I tended to use grey/silver, as browns made me look dead.

I went to the Benefit counter in boots and the girl told me to use either deep greens or purpley mauves. She did my eyes in the green and it looked really good!

You could try going to one of these counters and getting it done by the experts, and see which suits you best!

Hi pinkgrl91
I too have very dark brown eyes. I find the only colour of eyeshadow that suits them is charcoal grey.
Good luck in finding the right colour.

I have red hair (but naturally blonde), and very dark brown eyes. I normally use dark purple eyeshadow and black/dark brown eyeliner that I smudge with a brush to create a more subtle effect. I sometimes use glitter eyeliner when i go out as it brightens up the eye really well! I think dark green is also ok for brown eyes.

How about a deep pinky colour or a coppery brownish! some of the new liquid eye shadows are really good and a white all over colour with a hint of difference i the corners can make a big impact and can look lovely.

hi pinkgrl
i would agree with the others on the green option, i have the same colouring as you. try all sorts of greens i usually opt for olive tones and light browns but the occasional bit of purple or pink never goes amiss. it's all just trial and error really, pop in to body shop or boots/ department store and get them to try out some colours on you, make sure it is tried on your face not hand , they will probably try and sell you most of what you've got on but only buy it if you really think it suits you and another tip is too make sure you see your make up in both artifical and natural light if possible, i look like a supermodel under the bathroom light and like a haggered witch in natural light sometimes, depends what i have got on my face or how p***ed i am before i having done my make up!! have fun experimenting..... you could do a different shop each saturday and get your face for free before a night out!! :-D x

i am same as you. brown eyes with brunette hair can wear any colour eyeshadow without it lookin washed out try barry m dazzle dust in a bright green shade or this seasons yellow. not that daring then choose a bright colour then put black smudge in the outer corner and crease sexy, smoky and the brightness thats goes POP
