For dark brown eyes, eyeliner colors that really define and accentuate the eyes are the darker browns and mauves. For a more dramatic look that adds a bit of color, you can go for a solid gold or bronze eyeliner. For medium eyes, purple and green liners can prove to be a lot of fun. If you really want to amp up your look for the evening, experiment with metallic eyeliner in either copper or bronze.

For lighter brown eyes, you should skip the black eyeliner and go for a dark brown instead. Keep in mind this rule of thumb: the lighter the eyes, the lighter the eyeliner color. If you have really light eyes that are almost hazel, look for a liner that has champagne tones with violet, bronze or brown liner. Another trick you can try is lining your upper lids with a dark liner then applying a lighter liner to your lower lids for a two-toned look.

Eyebrows play a powerful role in accentuating and defining our eyes. They have the ability to make or break a look, so make sure that your brows are properly threaded or tweezed so that they look neat and tidy. Purchase a two-toned brow makeup kit and carefully apply the brow powder throughout your brows in order to fill in any sparse areas and to give your brows an overall fuller look.

Many people prefer brow powder as opposed to brow liner because it is softer and does not look as harsh, guaranteeing a subtle and well-blended look that is natural. Powders are also easier to correct if you make a mistake or over apply. You can also apply a brow liner prior to the powder, but make sure to choose a color that is one to two shades lighter than your current brow color. If you use a color that is the exact same shade as your hair color, it will darken once it makes contact with your skin, which will then make your brows look too dark and unnatural. If you experience difficulties trying to find an exact match, you may want to consider blending a lighter shade with a darker one in order to create the ultimate customized brow color.

The final part of the look is mascara. First, curl your lashes with a good quality eye curler, then coat your lashes with a waterproof mascara. Wait a few minutes before applying a second coat for added definition and length. For longer lasting mascara, you may want to consider applying a clear gel mascara first, which will thicken the lashes and make them appear fuller.

For a more natural look, go for brown mascara. For a more dramatic evening look, try either black or navy blue mascara. Another special tip is to lightly dip a powder puff into translucent powder and gently press around the eyelid area. This will help seal in your eyeliner and prevent it from running. (Note: do this prior to applying mascara so as not to smudge). Be sure to follow these effortless and easy to follow eye makeup tips for brown eyes that will stun everyone, including your self.
