Follow this chart, here. It's a messy chart, but a chart nonetheless! I'll even give you some good blush and eyeliner colors.
Eye Shadow - Eye Liner - Blush
Light Beige - Black, Teal, Dark Taupe, Plum - Pink, Bronze, or Rose
Light Rose or Light Pink - Black or Plum - Pink or Rose
Light Gold - Dark Taupe, Khaki, Black - Bronze or Rose
Taupe - Teal, Dark Taupe, Black, Khaki Green - Bronze or Rose
Remember, these aren't limits. These are just some of the better colors for your skin and eyes. If you really want your eye color to "pop" and/or stand out, try wearing an orangey-red eyeshadow. That'll do the trick. Lavender tends to make a calm, collected look, too, if you want to try that out. Smoky eyes would look REALLY great on you, from how you described it.
Hope I helped!

The goal is to NOT match your makeup with your clothes OR your eye color......If you really want to stand out, Use something that's completely different from what you're wearing and what your eye color is.
I've also got hazel eyes, brown hair and tan skin and I use a Dark but Shiny Brown when I want to stand out, While It's still somewhat natural, it looks great when you're done.

With a darker overall look, you could go with something shimmery gold instead of neutral.
I have tanner skin and brown hair and gold works great for me when I want to spice things up.
But for a darker look, neutral-dark browns and even blacks and grays can bring out your natural beauty.
Have fun experimenting =)

You should wear light earthy tones to bring out your natural colors. Maybe a light shimmery green to go on the lid, and a natural brown to blend... something to bring out your pretty eyes. Natural colors are greatn fro your skintone!

I have a very good answer for you on this, granted that I'm not a girl, I would use dark brown, very bark brown, not black make up. You know I think I should ask people to donate some money for all the answers I gave to many people here.

Gold, coppers, gunmetals, and greens.
You can use some burgandy colors too for a more dramatic look.
Use a light bone color for a highlight and then use a slightly darker lid color and follow with a darker crease color. You can rim your eyes with a black kohl liner for a more dramatic effect.

LAVENDER LOOKS GREAT. I AM BROWN SKIN BROWN EYES. ALMAY HAS THE EYE KIT THAT BRINGS OUT BROWN EYES. I HIGHLY RECOMEND IT. FOR YOUR LIPS. GO NATURAL, SOMETHING WITH A LITTLE PINK MAYBE. ALSO, TRY GREENS. GO WITH THE TRI COLOR KITS...DO NOT WEAR GOLD, THAT IS TACKY! OR GLITTER!

sounds like me. i put white all over the lid then a pinkish purple in the crease. then a thin line of black eyeliner on the top and bottom lids. i get quite a few compliments.
