Eye makeup for brown eyes can pop, sizzle and be utterly smashing. Think of all those brown-eyed beauties like Julia Roberts, Halle Berry or Sofia Vergara. Brown eyes, the most common color of eyes, can range from dark to honey. So before just applying any eye makeup tricks, determine the real color of your eyes.

Those “brown-eyed” beauties are lucky because they can wear just about any color eyeliner or eye shadow. It’s the tone of the color that makes the difference. One big trick is to make sure that the colors match your eyes. Are your eyes a cool shade of brown (dark chocolate) or a warm shade of brown (amber, honey)?

Choose the color that is best suited for the tone of your eye color.
Cool Toned Eyes. Eyes are dark brown with hints of black
Warm Toned Eyes. Eyes are light brown to honey brown in color
No Baby Blue Eye Shadow. Cool brown could never get away with baby blue, but it really doesn’t look that hot on warm eyes either. Actually, we’re really not sure it looks great on any color eye.
Waterline Colors. Notice the difference in the waterline colors. You can line cool with a white, but white on warm eyes doesn’t look so great. It’s too harsh.
Metallic or Not?. Metallics work if they are in the flecks of your iris color. This works especially great for the honey-brown eyes with flecks of yellow or green.
