How to Apply Eye Shadow on Brown Eyes

Brown is the most common eye color in the world. If you have brown eyes, you don’t need to feel that they are ‘boring’ or ‘uninteresting’. In fact, brown eye coloring is a great advantage because this shade of eye color lends itself to eye makeup very well indeed. To draw attention to the rich, deep brown hue of your eyes, you can use a good number of shades with your eye makeup. Here are a few points to keep in mind.

 

Starting point

As discussed before, remember is to use a good quality primer over your entire eye area. Make sure that you cover any dark circles or puffiness underneath the eyes before moving on to your foundation and loose or pressed powder.

To highlight your brow, use a peach, white, beige or champagne eye shadow and cover the brow bone to lash line area evenly with it. When you finish, your entire eyelid should have a blemish free, even tone that serves as the base for your final eye shadow application. A light shade is used here at first to ensure that your brown eyes get the attention they deserve.

Suitable eye shadow colors for brown eyes

Brown eyes are very versatile and they look great with nearly every shade of eye shadow. However some shades make them look particularly glamorous. If you like metallics, then you can pick up a copper, gold or bronze shade to give your eyes a mesmerizing look while highlighting the deep richness of your brown irises. Browns are also great choices and they add to the depth of your brown eyes, drawing attention to them instantly. Do remember that if you use brown, then the color of the eye shadow should be a bit lighter than your dark brown eye color and vica versa. If you have light brown eyes then you can use a darker brown eye shadow. This will make your eyes stand out even more. Pinks help the brown eyes stand out without appearing flashy.

If you are opting for an understated look, then neutral color choices are a good option. Among these, pick up brown, peach or taupe to subtly highlight the eyes without making the eye makeup very evident. These eye shadow shades are perfect when you are getting ready for a business meeting where you do not want your makeup to be very obvious. To go a step further and opt for the dramatic look, select blue, brown,gold, vanilla, gray, black, violet, nutmeg or purple. Pick the deeper hues of these colors to outline your brown eyes perfectly.

One of the biggest advantages of having brown eyes is that you can pull off the dramatic look just as well as you can carry away the subtle one. This makes it incredibly easy for brown eyed beauties to match their eye makeup to their outfit or mood. A smoky eye also looks very nice with brown eyes.

Match your eye shadow to your skin tone

Keep your skin tone in mind when shopping for your eye shadow. While brown eyes look great with a good number of eye shadow shades, not all of them may work well with your skin tone. If you have warm skin undertones, opt for bronze, green, coral, cream, brown or pink. Women with cool skin undertones should opt for gray, silver, purple, green and blue eye shadow.

Silver metallic shades look good on dark skins. Black and Asian skin tones can carry off intense colors better than light skin. Dark purple usually look great on them but rust and lilac are not great choices.

Unsuitable eye shadow colors for brown eyes

While brown eyes do go well with almost every shade of eye shadow in the palette, there are few that should be avoided. To begin with, remember to pick the three shades (base color, eye lid color, highlight color) from the same family. Blues let your brown eyes stand out but only when they are deep shades or have a gray undertone. Bright blues are best avoided. The same is true of pink. Choose pink shadow with brown or gold undertones to light up your brown irises. Bright pink is simply not a good option for you.

Flat brown shades are not a good choice for women with brown eyes. These make the eyes recede. If your eye makeup is appearing too dark, adding a bit of shimmer is usually a great solution.

Matte shades that are very similar to your eye color are also not the best choice for you. They can give you a dull appearance. While highlight shades that match the flecks in your iris have a dramatic effect, choosing the wrong shade here can be a disaster. Deep black should be substituted with charcoal or blue-grey whether you are using the shade with your highlighter or your eyeliner pencil. The lighter shade accentuates the golden glow of your brown irises and keeps your overall eye makeup from appearing too dark.

General tips for brown eyes makeup

Apply a highlighting color over the entire eye area. Sweep the chosen eye shadow either on the eyelid or in the crease of the eye. Use a darker shadow to line the eyes to make them look bigger. Otherwise, you can simply use an eyeliner pencil to draw a fine line close to the lash lines. If an eyeliner pencil is your choice, then pick up golden browns, bronze, deep blue, dark gray or different shades of brown. Charcoal black liner applied slightly thicker than usual makes your brown irises appear lighter and translucent. Metallics and lighter shades make your eye color richer and deeper.

Use primer, foundation and powder before you do your eyelid makeup to ensure that the color stays on all day. The biggest problem with eye makeup is smudging and the primer ensures that this does not happen. Pat the primer gently onto the eyelids before you apply the base color.

White eyeliner applied to the waterline makes your eye appear more open and bigger as well. Pay attention to your brows as they serve to highlight your brown eyes and your eye makeup perfectly. A dot of shimmer to the inner corner of your eyes makes your beautiful brown eyes really pop!

How to Apply Eye Shadow on Brown Eyes

People who have brown eyes have so many options when it comes to eye shadow colors. Since the pigment of your eyes is already dark, very few colors will clash with it.

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when applying eye shadow on brown eyes:

• Blue, grey, plum, gold, brown, purple, vanilla and shades of violet make your eyes stand out.
• For daytime, keep your makeup soft and lighter than the brown of your eyes and for night-time, opt for darker colors.
• Smoky eyes look great on brown eyes.
• Use black mascara for a stunning, dramatic look.

The following items from our Makeup Kit will be used:

• 212 Spoolie Brush
• 221 All Over Eye Blender Brush
• 204 Crease Brush
• 219 Precision Crease Brush
• 202 Large Shader Brush
• 229 Detailing Brush
• 207 Angle Eye Liner Brush
• 15 Color Eye Shadow Palette- Neutral, Smoky and Theatrical
• Eyeliner pencils
• Gel Eye Liners
• Eyelash curler
• Black mascara

Now let’s start with the practical…

Step 1: Take your 212 Spoolie Brush and comb your client’s eyebrows in an upwards movement, taking it downwards at the sides.

Step 2: Fill in your eyebrows with the brown color of the Trio Brow Palette.

Step 3: Take your 221 All Over Eye Blender Brush and apply a white, beige or champagne eye shadow color all over the eye area. Apply it from underneath your client’s eyebrows and take it downwards almost into her lash line.

Step 4: Take your 204/219 Crease brush and apply a medium brown eye shadow in the crease of your client’s eyes. Apply it from the inside corner of her eyes and take it all the way till the end.

Step 5: Wipe your brush with a clean tissue.

Step 6: Take the same brush and apply a dark brown eye shadow at the outer corners of the eye’s crease and only until the middle of the crease. Make a “v” shape while taking this color into your client’s lash line so that it is in line with the darker color of your crease.

Step 7: Take the 204 Crease Brush and do blending so that the 2 colors blend well together.

Step 8: Take your 229 Detailing Brush and apply a white/champagne eye shadow color at the inside corners of your client’s eyes.

Step 9: Use your black eyeliner to line the eyes at the top and bottom. Make sure that the edge of the pencil is not too sharp. A good tip is to sharpen the pencil and to push the point/edge, slightly angled, onto your hand so that it is just right for lining the eyes.

Step 10: Wipe your 229 Detailing brush with a clean tissue.

Step 11: Take this brush and apply black eye shadow over the eyeliner line that you have drawn. This will give a very dramatic finish to your smoky eyes.

Step 12: Take the eyelash curler and place it underneath your client’s eyelashes while her eyes are open. Gently squeeze the eyelashes for 10 - 20 seconds to give them a curl.

Step 13: Finally, take black mascara and gently wipe it down the inside of the tube. Ask your client to close her eyes and apply the mascara wand exactly where the eyelashes start. Comb the wand upwards and outwards, making zigzag movements. This will prevent the mascara from forming clumps and also give her eyelashes that desired volume.
