Answer 2

Hi there,

With skin colour, hair colour not taken into account, the usual colours chosen are:

1st all over shadow colour from lashes to brow is around the same as your skin colour, also an eraser if mistakes occur;

2nd is the same as hair colour if you are brown or darker, opposite if blonde (eg purple or pinkish brown) applied to the crease of the eyelid;

3rd is opposite, in your case with mid brown eyes a perwinkle blue, (deep blue purple) on the outer edge of eyelid, just above lashes. You could aslo go with a deep moss green for a change of scene on other days.

Answer 4

Most people with brown eyes go well with almost any color of eyeshadow. Ranging from pastels to basic colors, they all work. But violets, purples, plum, and pink colors look good. Earth toned colors do as well.

-Gold

-White

Answer 6

Any color that's an opposite to the color ofyour eyes will make them pop and bring them out more. :)

Answer 7

Purple! It will make your eyes will pop! Other good colors are golds and sages, beiges and browns, but be careful that your browns have more of a gold undertone that a copper overtone (It can be pretty but can make you look sallow and sick really easily too). I love Urban Decay YDK. I use a small contour brush and just blend it up into my crease going from darkest to lightest from my lash line to my eyebrows and finish it off with a pretty gold toned highlighter. (I also like Baked, but this is a coppery brown.) Dark brown liner is better than black but going too light brown can make your eyes look washed out and smeary. I usually use a combination of both, a thick line of brown, which makes my eye color look softer, and if I'm going out I'll even smudge it, but I line with a black liquid liner very thin and very close to lashline, which makes my eyes look crisp and really makes my eyelashes look full.

If you're going for something a little on the fun side, a little bit of aqua liner can make your eyes really stand out. Hope this helps :)

Answer 8

i like purple the best usually. (:

Answer 9

shades with a green or blues undertone since green/blue  is the opposite of brown & makeup artists tell you that you're supposed to use the opposite of your eye color.

brown - blue/green

green - gold/brown

blue - brown/purple

i think...lol!

hope i helped!
