What make-up tips can you give me?

I have dark brown hair with natural-lighter brown highlights, tan skin (hispanic) and brown, coffee-colored eyes. I'm sometimes confused with what I should do with my make-up to make my eyes pop. I don't want to go too durastic but I'm not afraid of using popping colors as long as it doesnt look horribleWhat make-up tips can you give me?
Brown eyes can get away with wearing almost any color of eyeshadow. But if you want you eyes to pop then try either green eyeshadow or pink eyeshadow. With brown eyes, you can also use blue eyeshadow, and if you have gold flecks in your eyes you may want to try an eyeshadow that has a gold shimmer to it. Brown eyes can even pull-off wearing brown eyeshadow, but be careful because certain tones can look muddy against your beautiful brown eyes.





Keep in mind that you should have fun with your eyeshadow and it shouldn't be a bothersome process. A general rule of thumb with eyeshadow is to first compliment your eye color and then it shouldn't contrast your clothing. In other words, don't wear a purple based eyeshadow on your blue eyes while you are wearing a coral toned shirt. You should try to keep your clothing and eyeshadow in the same or color family, or at least a complimentary family. And finally, remember that sometimes less is more. Don't add 5 layers of green eyeshadow on your brown eyes, thinking that it will make them look fabulous. Often times a slight hint of color is all your eyes need to really pop and look mesmerizing.What make-up tips can you give me?
I would say go with natural colors to accent your natural beauty. I would say use a brown eye shadow to shade the lids. Use black eyeliner to line the upper lashes and then accent with mascara. If you want to do something a little more drastic i would shade the crease of the lid with black and then shade in the rest with a soft nude shadow and then line the upper and lower lashes and then apply mascara. finish with a shine lip gloss.
