We love enhancing our natural eye colour! From our smokey eyes for blue eyes guide to makeup for hazel eyes, tailored makeup for different eye colours is an easy way to make your makeup stand out. This week we are looking at how to make brown eyes pop. From light chocolate shades to deep dark hues, brown eyes always make a statement. To complement this eye colour, go for purple, grey and silvery shades to really make your brown eyes pop.

Brown Makeup for Brown Eyes

That’s right, brown shades can bring out brown eyes even more, even though they are the same colour. The combination of the two intensifies eye colour, making it the perfect everyday eyeshadow to wear. We love using matte brown shades in the crease of our eyelids to add depth to your eye makeup effortlessly. Add antiqued amber tones to bring out golden hues of your eye colour for mesmerising date night makeup. For an alternative to the traditional black kohl, a brown eyeliner can add subtle definition to your eye makeup.

Purple Makeup for Brown Eyes

Purple makeup suits brown eyes because of the colour contrast that makes brown eyes pop. Purple eye makeup is surprisingly wearable, whether you opt for a sultry violet eyeliner pencil or a quick purple smokey eye. Eyeshadow pencils are ideal for adding an easy pop of colour to your eye makeup, simply blend out for a quick and easy smokey eye, for day or night! Or if you want to amp it up for night time, add some glitter and smoke with an eyeshadow palette.

Silver Makeup for Brown Eyes

Silver makeup gives your brown eyes a rock-chick vibe to stand out with. Go for cool-toned silvers to really contrast with the warm shades of brown. Cream eyeshadows are ideal for a buildable formula that you can take from desk to disco. Build on your smokey eye for date night with an eyeshadow palette so you can choose your preferred intensity.
