good eye shadow colors for brown eyes? and my eyes can look green sometimes so any tips to make them look greener?
anything helps! thanks :)Good make up tips for brown eyes?
I have brown eyes and I think we're lucky that we can pull off so many different colors.
Aquas and turquoises looks best. It REALLY makes them pop! Purples (especially dark purples) also look amazing, as well as silvers, greys, blacks, greens and generally anything jewel toned. Gold also looks pretty nice, as long as it's not too orange-y toned.
I've been known to wear a purple smokey eye with some black on the outer corners and it flattered me so well it was unbelievable. I kept getting so many compliments! Today I'm wearing turquoise, grey and a light cream color on my inner corners and it flatters my brown eyes pretty good as well. I also like cream eyeshadow on my lid and brown on my creases.
Just experiment and go along with colors I mentioned and any jewel colored eyeshadow.
Also, look to these for inspiration:

If your eyes have a yellow tinge, try using an eye shadow with a purple tone. Dark brown eyes are very versatile when it comes to color accents, and dark brown eyes are such a beautiful feature to have, I would play them up. Compliment your brown eyes with pale pinks, or accent the brown with gold and deep rusts. Have you tried using eyeliner to add definition? One look is to use one sheer glittery eye shadow used all over in combination with a softly smudged liner for a more sophisticated look.
I would definitely recommend you have a play with colored eyeliners. Dark brown eyes look stunning lined in shades of plum mix with a pale mauve shadow, aubergine mix with a shimmery light pink shadow, raisin mix with a mushroom soft brown shadow. Just remember to combine with a lighter shadow or your eyes may look more dramatic. There are various methods of using eyeliner. Pencils are the most versatile eye-defining tools, as you can start softly, blending each layer back if it starts to become too heavy looking. Pencil can be smudged softly, or add depth under an eye shadow for a muted look, or used alone for strongly defined eyes.
Liquid eyeliner is much more dramatic, and can be applied over top of your eye pencil for added intensity, or used under eye shadow to enhance your eye shape. Both of these techniques ensure longwearing eyeliner.
For the most natural way to line your eyes, use a small, firm brush and apply eye shadow as your eyeliner. Make the most of your dark brown eyes, using soft pinks to really bring them out. Use brown mascara for day, and a black/brown mascara for evening or special occasions. Keep eyeliner to a minimum though. Just use it to softly frame your eyes. Avoid all black as it tends to be too strong. Chocolates, deep plums and charcoals smudged into your lashes will do the trick. You might like to try adding a very subtle contour in a soft mushroom color on your brow bone just above your crease and blend this softly.
On the days you feel like your eyes need a pick-me-up, jazz up your eye make-up a little. Graduating your eye makeup from at your lash line to your brow will give your eyes more depth. Use the darkest shade along your lash line, and merge into lighter shades nearer your brow. Contouring and shading can create the illusion of different eye shapes. By using dark to minimize and light to make larger, you can play with altering the length and size of your eyes. ?
If you just want to keep it simple, sweep a shimmery pastel shadow all over your lid, curl your lashes, apply 2 to 3 coats dark grey charcoal or dark brown mascara, and add a few individual false lashes on the outer corner of your eyes!
Have fun discovering your new colors.
Well, u can try some of the stuff that Almay has out. U know the make brown eyes brown eyes browner %26amp; blue eyes bluer? Their purple eyeliner is great.
U can also do a pretty sorta ';smokey'; purple eye by puttng white eyeshadow all over ur eye area, a sorta deep purple color on ur lids and a light purple color in ur crease and then purple eyeliner w/ either brown/black mascara or black mascara. I have brown eyes and i think it looks great!
Purple will also look great w/ ur sumtimes green eyes =]
Wat I do is first i put white eye shadow as a highlighter..then i blend in blue then green...then i put on liquid black eyeliner or blue liquid or pencil eyeliner does not matter which one then you use black mascara....alll done yay...but if you want greater effects you can do cat eyes..its very easy look on youtube and you will find out how to do cat eyes...hope this helps..
sometimes sunlight helps. When im in the sun, my eyes turn hazel and sometimes green. Also, goldish eye shadows help a little to make them seem more hazel.
For brown eyes, plum and dark purples look amazing. Also, neutral greys can work if your eyes are very dark.
well if u have brown eyes id go for a purple shade...light or dark purple...its still looks pretty. and also gold eyeshadow to be always looks nice on brown eyes

Goldish very light makeup really works :) andd a coffee brown crease and lash line :) try it :)
Blue Eyeliner
purple or green eyeshadows - not bright colors, but more earthy tones.
