  •  Assuming that your eyes are hazel rather than dark brown, make them look practically green by wearing green eyeshadow.
  • Yellow isn't the most ideal tone as it draws out the yellow in brown eyes.
  • Add a blue eyeliner in the waterline to create an attractive contrast to your eyes. This will make the whites of your eyes much more accentuated.
  • Brown-eyed darlings can wear pink eyeshadows; darker pinks look more attractive.
  •  Since many brown-eyed angels also have brown or dark hair, wearing brown eyeshadow can appear dull against your face. Assuming that you still wish to wear brown eyeshadow, hype up your lips using a brighter colour.
