I have brown eyes as well. Aren't brown eyes great? I don't know about you but i love my brown eyes. Ok so for brown eyes the colors you can use are almost limitless. If i were you i'd try purples. Try a shimmery purple. Also, dark greens, burgandys and browns are great. I haven't tried it yet, but i've been told that golds are good as well. Try a light brown...that looks great. I'm actualy wearing that right now. I would also try eyeliner if i were you. I apply on the lid and below the lid, For under the lid just draw a line (not too dark) about halfway from the corner of your eye to about half way. Then take a q-tip and smudge it bit, but ever so lightly so as not to rub it off all the way. For the top, put your head back slightly and close your eyes half way and apply the liner along the top of the lid. Once you've done that, take the a q-tip and smudge it lightly. Once you've done all that, finish it off with lip gloss. Try clear, or a light brown. You could also try light pink.
Ok know you didn't ask for eye-liner tips but i thought i'd give it anyway because the eyeliner looks so good with the shadow and totaly compliments it.
Good luck and have fun with your make-up!

Well, contrasting colours always make your eyes pop. For blue eyes, like mine, browns and pruples are great.
Therefore, I would recomend maybe somenavy blue shadow? Or you could do a green. Maybe even a gold. Shimmer is great for eyes. If you have thick lashes, go a little lighter on the mascara,and maybe only line the lower half of your eyes. Brown eyes are great because they are very versatile. You can do almost anything, so don't be shy!

I think that a shimery white/sand color would look great, maybe highlighted with a darker gold or brown. I am mary kay consultant and would be happy to send you some colors to compliment your eyes. The eyeshadows are very well priced and Mary Kay is GREAT quality. Let me know if you are interested in any other information.

I love Clinique's Evening Sky when I wear black. It's basically a medium plum (more reddish than blueish) and a dark blue-grey. My eyes are dark brown and I have fairly thick lashes too.

i have dark brown eyes and the same color hair. For my eyeshadow i normally do shimmery type shades right under my eyebrow and on the teardrop of my eye...and bottom eyelid. this gives the allusion of a bigger eye and i really like the way it looks. so its pretty much andy shimmer color, could be shimmer pink, light brown or cream color, but i would be careful that the cream isnt to light.

well depends on what skin color you have.... if golden colored or tan, use like an amethyst color.. if beige ish then use light blue.. if fair skinned, use light pink, if darker use gold or bronze.
but brown w/ any color matches. but if you want to accentuate you dark eyes make it a little smoky on the top and bottom but not too much or else it'll look raccoonish or scary..
also read seventeen magazine. :]] its very helpful

When using eyeshadow, never match your eyeshadow to the color of your shirt. Always think of the color wheel and what will make your eyes stand out more.

I use lots of browns, gold colors and rose, purple colors are the best. Your lucky to have long thick lashes most girls would kill for them. ;)
