Brown Eyeshadow Looks: Nude, Neutral, Natural Brown Eye Makeup

Smokey eyes are forever, darlings! There are few things I love more in this world than the moody, smokey, rock chick effect that a smouldering brown smokey eye creates. Taking rich shades of brown and blending them in smokey circles along your lash line and through your crease creates a bold, blown-out look that can’t be beaten! The shades in my Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Sensual Sunset are perfect for creating a ferocious, flame-brown smokey eye. Use chocolate brown to give your eye socket a delectable, defined shape, then add a hint of burgundy wine with reddish tones that set every eye colour ablaze. For shimmer, you can’t go wrong with a crystal pop of warm gold.

Makeup minimalists gravitate towards light brown eyeshadow for the understated, naturally enhanced effect that it creates. Blending a light brown shade back and forth through your crease creates a soft contour effect that works in harmony with the neutral brown and bronze tones from the rest of your makeup look. My Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Super Neutral features beautiful light brown eyeshadows that are perfect for washing across your lids - I recommend neutral bone and cool taupe hues as flattering and easy-to-blend shades for the job.

Do you prefer a warm brown eyeshadow look, darling? Warm-toned browns have a richness that warms up and softens the look of your eye makeup. I love to use warm tones like copper, bronze and berry-brown to ignite the look of the eyes - just a dash of fiery, warm-toned eyeshadow can enliven tired-looking eyes and unlock a new lease of life. I was inspired by the glowing sunsets of Ibiza to create my warm brown eyeshadow palette - Charlotte’s Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Sensual Sunset. This palette captures the scorching hues that light up the sky and has all the warm brown eyeshadows you need to turn up the heat with your eye makeup.

Darlings, cool-toned brown eyeshadows take me back to the 90s! When I was kickstarting my career as a makeup artist to the stars, cool tones were all the rage. Supermodels and stars were wearing matte mink and taupe eyeshadows that gave their eyes a sculpted, structural look that was born for the runway. As is the way, cool tone brown eyeshadow is having a resurgence, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! My Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Super Neutral is an homage to the nostalgic, cool-toned brown eye makeup looks that I’ve created over the years and has the perfect balance of grey and brown eyeshadow tones to deliver cool-toned perfection.

Darlings, the magic of matte eyeshadow is its ability to carve and define the look of your eye shape while looking smooth as silk!

My Super Nudes Easy Eye Palette is inspired by matte supermodel eyeshadow looks of the 90s - it has 6 matte brown shades that are all the tools you need for creating matte brown eyeshadow looks.

One of the most magical cool tones to wear on your eyes is a tantalising taupe eyeshadow. Taupe is a breathtaking blend of brown and grey tones and belongs to the greige colour family. Wearing taupe on your eyes instantly unlocks that smouldering supermodel look that I adore - with a light hand you can create a captivating, cool-toned gaze, or you can dial it up for a sultry, smokey look! If you love intensity and classic, cool-toned shades, try a taupe eyeshadow like the cool taupe shades in my Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Super Neutral… They never look dull or ashy and create taupe eyeshadow looks that look ready for the runway!

All that glitters isn’t gold darlings… Bronze eyeshadow can look just as elegant!

The deeper the eyeshadow you use, the more dimensional your eyeshadow look will become. You can use a dark brown eyeshadow to dial up your eye makeup whether that’s by tracing one along the lash line to create a cat-eye effect liner look or smoking it through the crease to create a more dramatic brown eyeshadow look. In my Super Nudes Easy Eye Palette, discover warm and cool toned dark brown eyeshadows designed to be blended and built up to create 90s-inspired brown eye makeup. For even more intensity, I recommend adding a hint of black eyeshadow to deepen your look for maximum drama.
