The shade of your eyes is going to determine how you apply make up and how you are going to change your overall appearance as well. If you have a smaller eye, that is very dark, you want to use paler shades, of various types without heavy eyeliner to make your eyes more rounder and bigger.
For bigger eyes, that are any shape of brown, using eyeliner is going to focus on the shape of your eye. If you dont like the roundness of your eye, do not use the eyeliner on the entire outline of your eye, but only in the corners to make the shape of your eyes change a little, at least by appearance.
Dark eyes with dark and bushy eyebrows should be brushed so they lay a little flatter. The flatter thinner, eyebrows are going to give your eyes more shape, and your brushed eyebrows are going to make the color of your eyes stand out more. If you have a hard time controlling your eyebrows, consider adding a little hairspray to your fingertip and running it over your brow, or you can use gel in the same manner.
If you want to accent your brown eyes, add a little brown eyeliner to your bottom lid, this is going to dark your light brown eyes, or appear to darken the color! However, if you have a very dark brown eye that you want to lighten a little, try adding a golden honey color to your lid, this helps to lighten the color of your eyes a bit.

| It never ceases to amaze me that when giving makeup and skin care advice, suggestions inevitably default to refer to lighter or Caucasian skin. I sincerely doubt that using darker colors on ethnic skin can make one look "paler." You should consider your audience and tailor your advice to a more universal appeal. Please know that women of color contribute largely to the annual revenue of all cosmetic companies! |
