Do a dark shade on the bottom and a lighter shade on top. also outline your inner eye (bottom lid) with the lighter shade. that will open up your eyes more and will look realy nice.

i have brown eyes also and i just try and play with color alot. i really like doing pink and green eyeshadow together, also pink and purple. golds and browns. i have found that i stick with one technique but change the color up. i put one color on the inner corner of the eye and fade it across the lid, then put another color on the outer corner of the lid and fade it to the middle, then add a light color under the brow for a nice highlight. i never use liner just a nice coat of mascara. also when applying eyeshadow the best thing to do is to blend so the colors looks seamless. hope i helped, if not u can email me ashley_d692001@yahoo.com

First apply eye primer. My favorite is Urban Decay's eye primer found at Sephora stores or Sephora.com for like $13. Then use a brush applicator, not the sponge applicators. The softer the better, but you don't need to buy the expensive brushes that they have at Sephora - you can find great brushes at a drug store like Walgreens. If you go to a Sephora, you can ask someone who works there to actually show you how to apply strokes of eye shadow best. Have fun!

I always do two different colors. For instance I'll do a settle red closest to my eyelashes then fade it to brown till I reach the crease of my eye. To make it unique I have this little gold powder that's really light. Be creative but just use complimentary colors.

use a brush so that you have more control of where the eyeshadow goes. Look downwards towards the mirror so that your eyelids are visable but you can still see what your doing.

The best color for brown eyes are purple/violet shades, green shades, and golds.

First apply primer and figure out your eye shape, and what you like about them. Then bring that out.
