The Beautiful Eyes of Brown

Let’s talk about brown eyes! They are the most common eye color in the whole world followed by blue. There are many different brown eyes from the deepest to the lightest, honeyed or the unique hazel. Brown eyed ladies can wear any color under the sun! This is why the color brown is a neutral color and neutrals go with everything! Brown is created by mixing complimentary colors such as green and red. Green is a combination of yellow and blue.

For this reason, brown eyes have the most options when it comes to using makeup.

What is your eye undertone?

Because brown is made out of blue, red and yellow this is also a guide in finding the undertone of your beautiful brown eyes.

Finding the undertone that you want to accentuate.

Deep dark brown eyes

They are considered a cool undertone because the deeper the eye shade the less visible warmth. Blues and purples, deep plums, charcoal grays, chocolate browns, and silver will make your deep brown eyes pop!

Brown eyes with gold

They have golden and sometimes amber hue which makes them very warm in tone. If you want to accentuate the gold in your brown eyes, bronze or anything with gold flecks will catch the gold tones in your eyes instantly. Also, warm coppery, burgundy and colors in the purple family are great tones to make them stand out.

Brown eyes with green or hazel

If you want to accentuate the green in your brown eyes use any shade in the brown range with red undertones. Dark red violet, red brown, reddish gold and some green eyeshadows will bring out the green of your hazel eyes even more.

To finish off your eyes you always want to give your lashes a good curl and two coats of mascara.

Always remember there are no rules in makeup, that’s what makes it fun! If your intention is to create a more natural look always look at the natural color of your skin and hair rather than just looking at the color of your eyes.
