Patting a gold eyeshadow all over your lids can help your brown eyes to appear golden! For brown eyes, I recommend choosing a richer, more pigmented shade of gold like yellow-gold, rose-gold or copper-gold to create mesmerising light play that accentuates their natural honey-gold hues. I created my Luxury Palette in The Queen of Glow to create an easy eyeshadow look with a sunshine glow! With sunset gold and copper shades that act like little rays of sunshine to illuminate the look of your eyes, The Queen of Glow look is good as gold and is a magical eye makeup look for brown eyes.
