  1. neutral tones:

    -gold

    -beige

    -dark brown

    -charcoal

    brighter tones:

    -plum

    -midnight blue

    -emerald


  2. try navy blue..i know it sounds weird but blue is the opposite of brown and it will really make your eyes pop

    and navy because its darker, bright blue would be too much with your skin color

  3. I would wear  a light color to bring your eyes out( soft pink)

  4. a shimmery gold would look nice.. and it goes with almost anything.  

  5. With most of my patients, I would use maybe a sage green mixed with a copper or gold. And also maybe even charcoal color.  

  6. Brown eyes and tan skin is a great base for almost any color.  Green are a great color to really make your eyes pop.  Start with a gold/olive color with brown eyeliner and brown mascara.  Staying on the warmer side of colors will keep with you warm complexion so going blue will be good when you want your make up to stand out like going to a club but not for everyday wear.  Deeper warm purples are a good color for everyday where.  Take a dark warm purple eyeshadow wet a small brush and apply as a liner with simple brown shadow and mascara.  Small touches of color are the best way to go.

  7. Number 2! It would look fab!

  8. I have brown eyes too.  Use purple!!  I have purple eyeliner and shadow and it really compliments my eyes.  The makeup artist at MAC told me to use it and they really know what they are talking about!

  9. When you're picking an eyeshadow, it's best to find a color that goes well with your eyes, not your skin color. For brown eyes, greens and golds make the colored flecks in your eyes pop. I have also found out that purples, golds, and greens always look good on tan skin, these colors really make the gold undertones in your skin stand out. Colors with a hint of spice to them will also compliment your eyes.

    I hope this helps, good luck and have fun! :)


  10. Hey there

    Aw you're really lucky to have such dark eyes and tanned skin and should make the most of it! Seein as you have such dark eyes, i think a light shimmery eye shadow would work best on ur skin tone. Maybe try a light gold colour or subtle purples, greens and even natural tones like brown. Steer away from really bright cold type colours as they will take away from your warm skin tone. Another tip is to blend a darker tone of eyeshadow at the crease of your lids and lighter at the edges, making your eyes seem really.. wow!

    Hope i helped, have fun :)

  11. Almay has a collection that all you have to do is find the packages with your eye color on them
