Answer 1

*** Makeup Ideas For Brown Eyes ***

Things to Consider...
the shade of your eyes. (This will effect how the colors work for you.)
the tools that you use to apply the shadow
how much shadow you use (the more layers, the more intense the color)
the shape of your eyes
your age group
Brows: Touch up if necessary. Fill in bare spots with shadow or pencil. Be sure to brush brows to soften color.

Highlighter: Apply a Sand colored highligher beneath the brow.

Lid Shadow: Brush Honey Gold onto the lid, up to the crease.

Crease: Using a brush, work a little DARK GOLD shadow into the crease area and blend well so that edges are softened.

Liner: Hunter Green (Pencils are the easiest to use, but shadows can be used as well.)

Mascara: Black (Brown eyes seem to need deep lush colors.)

Using soft peaches, dark browns and shades of pink...
We often find ourselves reaching for the same old colors year after year. In this section of Beauty.about.com, I will be putting together mini lessons of colors that you might never have considered.
In the graphic to the right you will see a face with several numbers pointing to different areas. Below, you will find details explaining what each number represents along with the necessary instructions for placement.

**Remember that the shape of your eyes, nose and face in general are going to be different from the next person who uses these colors. This is your time to play makeup artist. Use the colors suggested and try placements that you might never have tried before. You might find a brand new technique that you will love!

1. Shadow for lid: Soft peach that blends into your skin tone.

This color should simply brighten up the area.
2. Crease: No color on brow bone.

3. Liner: Dark brown smudged into lashes. A hard line should not be visible.

7. Beneath Eye: Nothing.

4. Mascara: Dark brown to black, but just one layer for a natural look.

5. Blush: Work a baby pink blush into the apples of your cheeks. It should look as if you were born with this color.

6. Lips: Using a lip brush, apply a rosey shade of pink onto the lip area, blot and then apply again. This should ensure that the color will last. *Using a brush also ensure that you use less lipstick than straight from the tube. This technique looks very natural.

* Top 10 Top Colors For Beige Skin / Dark Hair *

You most likely have brown or black hair. Your skin is mostly likely beige and your eyes anywhere from a hazel to varying shades of blue. Here are your top ten makeup colors.

1) Cherry Reds
You should have at least one cherry red shade of lipstick. If you are nervous about going this extreme, try a lip gloss in this color. Much easier to wear.

2) Pinks
If you have blue eyes, you should definitely use pinks as a shadow color. It does amazing things for this eye color.

3) Coral
Believe it or not, you can wear this color quite effectively if you choose the right shade. Just a touch on the lids draws attention to dark blue eyes. On the cheeks, it warms you up. Remember, if it is too dark for your liking, simply tone it down with a shade of buff.

4) Pale Blue
Choose your blue carefully. You will want one that is not overwhelming.

5) Grape
Another excellent pick for you. Work with the intensity until you get it just right.

6) Grapefruit
Save this color for lip gloss.

7) Pistaschio
Another great color for the eyes. I have found them in every thing from creams to powder. *As you get older, it is easier to wear powder than cream.

8) Taupe
Dust a little over the eyes for a neutral look.

9) Mauve
Look for a grayed mauve. This will work amazingly well on your eyes.

10) Blue Gray
If you haven't tried this shade for eye liner, do so now. You will love it.

* Top 10 More Colors For Beige Skin and Dark Hair *

You most likely have brown or black hair, occasionally a blonde will fit into this category as well. Your skin is a beige or even pink. Your eyes are most certainly some shade of brown. Hazel eyes also can be found in this Here are your top ten colors.

1) Lilacs
This color will be one that gives you tons of mileage. It will really set off your dark eyes, but be subtle enough for the office.

2) Pinks/Reds
With your coloring, intense pink lips or even red will get you the attention that you are looking for, while working with your skin tones.

3) Smoke Blue (Shadow)
Use this shade as a subtle lid color, but be sure to blend well. If you are using a lighter shade of blue (and this will work for you, use this darker shade against the orbital bone.

4) Smoke Plum
You might want to use this color to "push back" the orbital bone. Save this one for evening and some candlelight.

5) Sand
Choose this shade as a shadow color if you are going for the nude look. Actually, any pale shade of brown will work here. Think honey, caramel or even a pale bronze.

6) Hot Pink for Blush
The intensity of this shade of pink will ensure that it shows up on your skin. Anything lighter can almost disappear. It takes a great deal of blending however so that no edges are visible.

7) Charcoal Gray Liner
While black is classic, this shade is less harsh and more forgiveable.

8) Red For Your Lips
Red lipstick was so glamorous in the forties and you can duplicate the look by finding the right shade. Here is a hint... Think brown red.

9) Cherries For The Cheeks
Another variation of the pink suggested above. And it won't be hard to find at all. Just about every cosmetic company has one.

10) Earthy Taupes
Choose these eyes if you are looking for the smoky eye look. The more color you add, the smokier the look.

Answer 2

I have hazel eyes with a very pale skin tone, so this may not work, but this is my makeup routine, and it takes about 3-5 min.

First, get some good eyeshadow, I use L'oreal in red metallic/brown (it brings out the green.) I put the reddish metallic on my actual lid, then I use a very very pale light pink color to blend the red into the pink and highlight my brow with pink. Then I use a medium brown liner, and line the top of my eye, and blend that into the red. This makes your eyes pop, each layer is properly blended and looks natural, and it's not "over the top"
Then a light coat of mascara, a little lip gloss, and some powder if its a hot day.

Done!

Answer 3

Your eyes naturally come out because of the green tint. Try brown to black mascara with some brown eyeliner. It's something simple and fast to do.

Answer 4

use a light beige foundation that you apply with a sponge, then apply a light powder over the top. Use a brown eyeliner for under your lower lashes, that should be enough, you want it to look natural, nothing worse than a face caked with makeup. Dont use eyeshadow or lipstick for school, maybe just a lip gloss.

Answer 5

To me it sounds like your eyes are your best feature so...1) Use a dark brown powder to outline your eyelids just above your lash-line. 2) Add some plum colored eyeshadow to make the green in your eyes stand out 3) Put on mascara

Answer 6

Mix a dab of moisturizer with a smudge of mascara on your wrist with an angle brush (Try Sonia Kashuk at Target) then apply a line above your TOP lashes like eyeliner. It won't smudge and you get a perfect color.

Also- after you apply your powder, use Evian Spray ($15 at Sephora) to set it. It won't smudge when you fall asleep in class!

Answer 7

purple makes green pop out in eyes. Sephora has purple eyeliner for $4. Speaking of sephora, if you buy makeup from there, buy the Sephora brand because it is cheaper and works just as well!
