What brings out brown, small eyes?

Question

I have brown, kinda small eyes and I was wondering what eyeshadows brings them out.

Answer 1

The following colors and tips are ones that our makeup artist taught us.

Eyeliners:

You can use Sable which is a dark brown (some people might try to tell you brown on brown isn't good, but that's not true), Violet, Bronze, Charcoal, and Plum. Line both top and bottom lid! (Don't be afraid to do this. As long as you make it thin it won't close your eyes in.)

Eyeshadow Colors:

Highlighters: shimmery whites, frosty pinks, peaches

Crease: Dark Brown, Blacks, Dark Reddish Browns, Dark Gold, Brown (med. any form), purples, and the list goes on.

Lid: Since your eyes are small, you want to highlight your lids. It will help to bring them out and open them up.

Smoke eyes (going over liner on bottom lid outside thicker...thinner towards inner part.) with either a gold, or a dark brown. Play with it, you will find your favorites!

Well-defined, CURLED, plumped lashes work really well to open up small eyes. I suggest using a black mascara.

One final tip: To really open them up, and give the illusion of appearing larger, you can apply white or beige eye liner around the inside (only) "wet tissue" of the eyes. Still use your other eyeliner as I explained above.

Well, I hope this helps you out. For additional techniques go to www.marykay.com and do their virtual makeover. Let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Answer 2

This is especially if u have brown hair, brown eyebrows, and small brown eyes.
Plum, bronze, and chocolate complement your eyes. There are kits u can get for a specific eye color, at around $2.99 at drug stores.On the lips try mid-tones with an orange rather then a pink base.

Answer 3

Mascara
Liquid liner at top outer corners only (brown)
2 shades of eyeshadow (for contrast)
Keep colors in Neutrals (beige, brown, taupes)
DONT use blue- that is tacky

Also, to draw more attention to the eyes lessen the attention being drawn to other parts ( ie- dont wear a lipstick that stands out- go very neutral)

Answer 4

I have brown, small eyes too, hmmm...I wear a half line underneath my eye and then a full one on the top and black mascara. If I do it dark then it makes them look smaller and if I do it lightly they look bigger. I wish you luck, sry, i don't even wear eyeshadow, in fact, I wear VERY little make-up in the first place, only once in a while and only eyeliner and mascara and of course, lip gloss.
