Flatter Your Brown Eyes With A Great Shade Of Smokey Eye Makeup

It’s essential to consider your eye color before finding the right smokey eye look. There are various approaches you can take: it all depends on what you would like to achieve. Do you want to enhance your eye color or rather harmonize with it? Enhancing? Harmonizing? If this sounds a bit complex read on and learn all about it.

Enhancing your eyes is all about making their color come out more and look brighter. Enhancing is usually done by applying a shade unlike your eye color, in the opposite spectrum of the color scheme. In the case of brown eyes, which are the topic of this article, you would apply blue which is a cool color.

The role of eye makeup is not only about enhancing eye color. You might sometimes use an eyeshadow that will make your eye color less intense, yet it will be very flattering. The reason? It agrees with you! That’s when the concept of harmonizing comes in. To prove the point: brown eyes look great with brown smokey eyes although it has nothing to do with enhancing.

What about finding perfect, reliable smokey eyes? With brown eyes you can wear lots of colors of eye makeup. But it is not a complete free-for-all. Some shades are better than others. To learn about all the color solutions get my free report on smokey eyes for brown eyes Below see my three top recommendations for brown-eyed ladies: colors that are guaranteed to flatter and deliver the smokey eye magic.

The first color will show the power of harmonizing. Brown smokey eyes for brown eyes might sound a bit boring but they work superbly. And because it is such a ‘natural’ color you can make it quite strong without looking over-made up. And it is very trendy. For more texture and variety introduce brown’s shiny cousins: bronze, copper and gold. And learn from the goddess of brown smokey eyes: Kim Kardashian. She made this look iconic and it is enough of a recommendation. To keep your face fresh make sure to use blush and a bit of color on your lips: too many earth tones could end up looking dull.

Suggestion number two will make your brown eyes pop: navy and rich blue do this job perfectly. They are cool colors which will contrast with the warmth of the brown eyes. They look great as an element of color or as a full-on dose: such as dark blue smokey eyes worn by Oprah Winfrey at the Met Gala this year. Feel free to experiment with lighter shades of blue as well: recently Eva Mendez finished off her brown smokey eyes with a blue liner (thus enhancing her brown eyes.)

The third suggestion would be a smokey eye classic: charcoal. Charcoal gives a decisive yet elegant smokey eye look. It’s the color of choice of Victoria Beckham. Her smokey eyes are legendary and she knows that charcoal is a universally flattering hue, perfect for brown eyes. She likes to spice it up with some silver, especially in the inner corner of the eye. I have also seen charcoal combined with navy: mixed together they can make a sophisticated, three-dimensional smokey eye which enhances brown eyes superbly. Another spectacular, although more audacious, design would be mixing charcoal and a dash of purple: Kim Kardashian wore it recently at the 13th Annual Super Saturday.

Brown eyes are made for smokey eyes! So take advantage of this blessing and look smoldering with smokey looks in charcoal, blue and brown. And have fun!
