i'm not lying ...i really do have black eyes.. even under the sun there is not much colour.. i even had people going up to me asking is my real coz its so black..

i always wanted to have brown eyes so sometimes i end up using dark brown cosmetic lenses. (most of the time my makeup is more suitable for brown eyes - i think)

but its troublesome using lenses so i thgouht why not try to enchance my natural eyecolour by using eyeshadow n stuff..

I would love to see a photo!!! I'll bet you are just wonderful to look at! If you curl your eyelashes and on the inside corner of your eyes, use a bright blue eye shadow (just a tiny bit) it will just bring your eyes out. Experiment with different colored eye shadows, and mascaras...sometime electric blue eye mascara will bring dark eyes out. Try to stay away from heavy liner on your lower er lid? It can make your eyes look piggy...but a little will help you finish your look.

darling, this whole makeup deal depends completely on your personality. if you like the french cafe' look, apply brown eyeshadow (but don't go pouring the whole thing on your eyes!), then add a lighter color on top of that (rose pink, bronze/gold), then black/grey/dark brown eyeliner, then curl your eyelashes! optionally, you could even add a touch of a gentle sparkle on the area under your eyebrow but at the far end.

for the hip/rock look, try a bold eyeshadow (blue, purple, pink), then any lighter color that would go with your option. try on jet black eyeliner, curl your eyelashes, then for the last resort, apply hair gel with a mascara brush onto your eyelashes, and sprinkle sparkles on them while the gel is still wet! optionally, you could use a little bronzer around your eyes to get that magically shine!

golden rules:
1. ALWAYS use lip gloss, and unless you reeally want to get noticed, use only pink lip stick.
2. use bronzer on your face, you absolutely need that j.lo glow.
3. make sure your face is acne-free. if you have that problem, get proactive (the order form is usually in the j-14 magazine near the end, or go on www.proactive.com)
4. keep.your.face.moisturized.
5. always wash off your makeup when you're done.
6. avoid using makeup with oils in them, they clog your pores.

how blessed are you.

i would definitely go for a charcoal grew smoky look.

apply a dark Grey from the mid-to corner on the upper lid. apply fully along the lower lashes then take a graduated tipped applicator and smudge it around a bit. (get a good brand the cheaper pencils run/smear). i would vary between browns,coppers,bronzes and maybe be a little daring with a dark smokey purple/piece combo. top it all off by apply mascara on the upper lashes. stay away from false lashes i have never seen them on anyone look good (even my run way models look like TWIGGIE)- if you have decent lower lashes you could apply there too- but i typically tell people to avoid the lower lashes w/ mascara-it seems to smear b/c of the eye ball moisture with gravity tends to sludge down.

good luck

I have the same color eyes. I get people asking me all the time if my eyes are really black because they are so dark...of course they are not black, just really dark brown. Either way I've found that if you use purple eyeshadow, or purple eyeliner, it really helps them pop.
Now I'm not talking 80's purple, more like a light lilac.

Use an eyelash curler 2 curl your eyelashes, it opens up the eye & flatters them. As for eyeshadows, since you have dark eyes any colors can work to make them "pop". Lining the inner corner of your eye with a white eyeliner will make them look big and bright.

Your eyes are perfect for the smokey eye look! You should use a gold shimmery eye liner, then use alot of black mascara. Then you should use a grey or blackish goldish smokey color (lol) on your eyes. You should put the gold at the top and put the black on the bottom. If you want to make the black in your eyes stand out with the smokey color use white shimmery eyeliner and really coat it! Good Luck!!!!

Lining the inner corner of your eye with a white (even shimmery) eyeliner will make them loog big and bright. Avoid lining the bottom of your eye with eyeliner because that can have the effect of making your eye look small.

you probably dont have completely black eyes there probs just really really dark brown. . . but you can enhance them by putting on neutral makeup all around your face but then make your eyes stand out by putting a lot of mascara and eyeliner on and some nice eyeshadow thats not to subtle then add a touch of sparkle if you want it to be interesting.

My eyes are dark like yours and when you look at them it's hard to find the pupil in the middle. I just use black or dark brown mascara and it helps to accent them. You might try going to a person that specializes in makeup to help you with this problem.
