Everyday makeup for brown eyes can be done step by step in five minutes. There are very few stages of makeup. Brown-eyed girls are never “colorless”; they are always a bright and dynamic type that requires a certain design. The main color palette for brown eyes is focused on a wide range of brown shades from light beige cream, coffee, chocolate to more dark colors cinnamon, oak, dark chocolate. Makeup for brown eyes should be harmonious, emphasizing the shade of the iris, so makeup artists advise choosing a range of shadows several tones lighter than the shade of the eyes. In this case, the shadows will work for their intended purpose and will create just a shadow on the eyelids, and will not greatly emphasize their presence.


Makeup for brown eyes looks like this step by step: correcting the shape and shade of the eyebrows, applying eye shadow (a simple technique), tinting the eyelashes with mascara.

Acceptable shades for brown eye makeup: gray, dark green, the whole purple range. Least suitable: blue, light green, red.

Everyday makeup for brown eyes step by step execution as follows. Degrease the skin of the eyelids with powder, apply a base under the shadows. Using a brown shade of kajal, draw a line along the upper eyelashes, go a couple of mm beyond the lash line and lift the tip. This is not an arrow; it is not intended for light everyday makeup. Kayal pencil, unlike eyeliner, creates a fuzzy line that can be shaded and it will become invisible, but it will visually increase the thickness of the eyelashes and highlight the eyes.


Cover the entire surface of the eyelid with the lightest shade of matte eyeshadow or powder. Using a soft brush, pick up a dark base shade and brush over the bone. The upper limit of the eyeshadow color should be above the crease of the eyelid. The transition from light to dark shade needs to be shaded. Apply the same shade of eyeshadow under the lower lash line. The outer corner of the eye can be highlighted with the most saturated color by making a neat tick. This is an optional step in daytime makeup.


It’s impossible to imagine beautiful makeup for brown eyes step by step without shaping your eyebrows. The color of the eyebrow product should be combined with the shade of your hair and eyes. The wrong color of eyebrow pencil will ruin all your efforts. For those with brown eyes, black, brown and dark green mascara is suitable.

This same simple makeup can be easily transformed into an evening one. To do this, apply glitter or pearlescent shadows to the central part of the eyelid. For a deeper, languid look, you can make eyeliner with a black liner and choose a richer shade of lipstick.

Bright shades in brown eye makeup are possible with careful execution. Blue, light blue, pink, aquamarine, orange shadows will highlight the depth of brown eyes very favorably in contrast. But in everyday makeup, it is better to combine shadows, pencils and eyeliners in rich shades with light brown and sand colors, rather than using all eye makeup products in a monochromatic color scheme. The easiest way to do a quick summer makeup look for brown eyes: Apply a solid gold or bronze shadow to the upper eyelid and draw a line of emerald colored pencil as the lower lash liner.

Carefully thought out makeup for brown eyes will help highlight them favorably natural beauty and expressiveness. Let's try to figure out how to highlight the color of your eyes and make them sparkle even brighter with any hair color!

Every girl has more than once wondered what ideal makeup should be like: for brown eyes, one color is used, for blue eyes, completely different ones, and even almost colorless eyes can be made bright and expressive with the help of correctly selected cosmetics and its proper application.

Let's look at the most common variations of brown eyes:

  • Light brown

Dark, but at the same time slightly blurry, with a languid look, such eyes look very mysterious. It is important to highlight their unusual beauty without overshadowing their interesting shade. Brown, gray or black eyeshadow colors in combination with brown eyeliner are suitable for this. Use cosmetics in darker shades than your natural eye color, but do not overuse too dark colors: just shade the outer corner and crease of the eyelid.

  • Amber

Yellow pigment is quite rare. If you were lucky enough to be born with this unusual eye color, highlight it with gold, sea green or greenish eye shadow. Complete your look with a bold, dark eyeliner to add contrast.

  • Nut

This type of eye is also light, but with an attractive greenish tint - brown-green eyes. The winning options would be shadows in light colors - golden, light lilac or pink. For evening, you can use darker purples or browns. Don’t be afraid to experiment with the color of your eyeliner; you can safely replace the classic black one with a purple option.

  • Dark brown

A classic color among other shades. You don't have to for a long time spend time in front of the mirror, trying to make beautiful make-up: any colors and shades will suit you, from discreet bronze to bright green. Experiment!

  • Black

This eye color is found mainly in burning brunettes and girls with oriental appearance. Use bright, rich colors of any shade (green, blue, purple), or, on the contrary, a delicate color scheme of the same colors. The main thing is not to overuse too dark colors, so as not to give the image too gloomy.

You will not meet a person with monochromatic eyes, unless he has used colored lenses. As a rule, one or more additional shades are mixed into the main eye color, which must be taken into account when applying makeup.

Beneficial shade of hair color

  • Brunettes Black mascara is best suited, giving the eyes more mystery. Choose shadows and eyeliner depending on the natural shade of your eyes, also taking into account skin color. Makeup for brunettes with brown eyes is quite simple, since their appearance is expressive in itself. Golden-brown tones are perfect for dark-skinned girls, while fair-skinned “Snow Whites” can afford delicate and romantic shades of pink, lilac and blue.

  • The same advice will be appropriate for brown-haired women, with the only difference that light shades of shadows will not be able to highlight your beauty. It is better to use golden browns, grays and slightly darker blues and greens.

  • Fair-haired, brown-eyed girls It is preferable to use a dark brown eyeliner, as black will stand out too clearly against the background of your hair. Looks great on these girls natural makeup without obvious accents, but this does not mean that playing with color is contraindicated for you. Use colored eyeliner, cornflower blue, olive or violet, and matching eye shadow to highlight your eyes.

  • Brown eyes are less common among blondes, and even less often in redheads. Owners of blond hair need to be especially careful with their choice color range for makeup. you should avoid black mascara and eyeliner if you do not want to look too provocative. Give preference to brown, blue, purple shades and choose pastel shades - warm peach, sand or chocolate to create light makeup, not a burdening look.

If your skin is naturally quite pale, then you need to avoid reddish shades, excessive yellowness and too bright greens, as they will give your face a tired, sickly look. You don’t have to completely abandon this color scheme: you just need to choose the right shades! For example, instead of lush greens, use olive-colored shades.

What tone the mascara will be is also very important. Classic version, when the choice falls on black mascara, it is ideal for brunettes, but a fair-haired girl with brown eyes will look better with brown mascara. If a brown-eyed woman uses blue mascara for makeup, her look will become especially bright. In any case, you should not forget that your mascara for the evening must be moisture-resistant, otherwise you will have to touch up your makeup every now and then.
