i've been wearing the same kind of make up for awhile and i just want to try something new. what are some looks i can try? i want to make my eyes seem lighter and bring out the gold in them. also, i like to make my eyes look bigger and less round.





if you know any other looks that might not be specifically for brown eyes or that you think would look good, that would also be helpful.What are some good eye make up tips for brown eyes?
I am a makeup artist.





This question has been asked numerous times here, I feel like i'm repeating myself. Please check the answers before posting questions.





To make eyes appear bigger, use LIGHTER shades on your lids, such as gold, light pinks or bright purples. DONT line your entire eye or it will close it up! Try using a white or light beige shadow on the inner corners of your eyes and on your brow bones to open them up. To bring out the gold, use it's complimentary color, PURPLE.





I am re-posting an answer to a similar question:





';Because your eyes are brown to begin with, NEVER use a brown liner!!! Using colors in the same hue range as your eye color will make you look ';washed out';.





If you have dark eyes, I would suggest using a light purple or blue on the lid, and a darker purple or blue in the crease, with a dark purple liner on the inner corner to about 3/4 out. Use black liner on the very outter edge of the eye. A very dark plum or Black mascara would finish the look. If you want it more natural, skip the shadow.





If you have light brown eyes, all you need is a very dark plum eyeliner applied from the inner edge to outter edge on the top lid (along lash line), smudged up and outward. You could use Mac's Fluidline in Macroviolet (it's very easy to blend, and once it dries it doesn't budge). Then re-line the upper lash line with a thin black liner, and finish w/ black mascara. You could also use a dark purple shadow, instead of the purple liner, such as Mac's Nocturnelle or Graphology shadows.





A light yellow-gold shimmery shadow would also work with dark brown eyes. Mainly, your colors are Purple, Plum, Light-to-Medium Blues, Mauves, and Pink/Yellow-Based Golds. Dark eyes need lighter colors, light eyes need darker colors to make them pop.';What are some good eye make up tips for brown eyes?
I read the makeup artist's answer and she is right. Never use brown eyeliner, use black. She is very right on her answer but I also have brown eyes and I sometimes go dark. Dark gray on the lid lighter gray under the brow and then black on the cornes and top the black with a dark blue then use black liner on top,go thin with the liner and don't use liquid, and bottom lashes not on the inside and use the blue to trace the black liner on the bottom, keep the blue though close to the bottom lash line. I think it looks pretty to go deep sometimes with brown eyes but not all the time, just maybe on a date or something. Other than that she is right about eveything else. Have fun and if you need to, go to the mall and let the makeup girls help you:)
