Easy. Just wear some mascara and maybe a little eyeliner, too. This will definitely bring out your eye color. Make sure to just go easy on the eyeliner, or else. If you want to wear more makeup, and you are tan, you can't go wrong with bronzer on your cheeks and\or on your eyelids.Oh, and make sure to definitely put the mascara on your lower lashes too. You'll look great but in a subtle kind of way.

Here's what I found from the experts:

Going for a subdued look will keep your makeup from upstaging your eyes, says self-described "cosmetics cop" Paula Begoun. Beauty expert Bobbi Brown agrees, and in her book Beauty Evolution presents these additional eye-opening tips on choosing right-for-you makeup colors that are simultaneously subtle and sexy.
All-over eye-shadow base. The color, which is applied from the lashes up to the brow bone, should blend with your skin tone. Eye dos: White, bone, toast, sand or banana. Colors to avoid: Red-toned shadows — they can make you appear tired.
Lid shadow. Use neutral shades to enhance your eyes. For blue eyes — ashy taupe, gray or heather. For green ones — yellowy taupe, camel or heather. And for brown — rich taupe, sable or mocha. Want to complement your eye shadow with an optional contouring color, to further define by day or add a dramatic touch by night? Go with a shade that's not too dark, such as brown, slate or mocha. Brown's word of warning where contouring is concerned: "Smoky black lids are for rock stars and supermodels only!"
Liner. Go for darker shades, not bright ones — mahogany, charcoal or navy can be nice.
Mascara. Black is makeup expert Brown's favorite, but not for women with fair skin and light-colored hair and eyelashes — for them brown mascara can create a look that's less harsh.
What about going beyond the basics to try trendy for a change? That can be OK, but only if the color doesn't clash with your skin tone and hair and eye color. And if you're older, bear in mind this added pointer from Rockville, Md., makeup artist Barbara Roybal: Stick with matte-colored eye shadows — and stay away from frosted ones — to minimize the appearance of wrinkles.

Try Bobbi Brown Tinted Moisturizer, some light shimmery eyeshadow, like a gold or pale pink, with Almay intense iColor mascara... it works wonders.... and they have specific ones for whatever color eyes you have that really makes them pop!! Have fun!!

ok the BEST foundation to use is neutegena oil-free makeup, its really cheep but it blends VERY well, no one thinks i wear i makeup but it does wonders covering up blemishes, freckles, any kind of skin imperfection. then use a brown based eyeshadow with a little sparkle around the corner of your yes, and viola!

I would use eyeshadow, but sense you want more of a natural look, use a light color but still dark enough to bring out your eyes. I would suggest to use Clinique make-up, it looks very natural. Good Luck

Almay now sales eye makeup that is made to enhance your eye color. All you do is select the makeup that is for your eye color. I ware it and love it.

i love to dramatize my eyes so what you do is get a tan brown color and put all over eyelid including close to brow then dark eyeliner on the top and get XXL waterproof mascara from target and put on top AND bottom.
