Brunette Beauty Tips
Green Eyes
Eyeshadow and Brow Colors


Eyebrows:
Soft browns or soft taupes are the best colors to fill in and shape your brow if there is not enough hair to complete the shape. Dark browns or black tend to be too harsh to fill your brows with. Your hair color plays a part in what color you choose to fill in your brow with. Go with a lighter brow color than your hair. It tends to look less harsh when the brows are lighter.


Try using the brow groomer brush to blend the color into your hair so that you will not have a “drawn in” brow. If you have plenty of brow hair, there is no need to fill them in. Just keep them will groomed and brush them back with a brow groomer brush to keep them tame.


Eyeshadows:
Unlike blue or green eyes, where the opposite colors of your eyes will actually make your eye color stand out, the brown eyed girl, because of the neutral shade of brown, can handle many shades and still make your eyes pop!!

These swatches are a good starting point for you in determining what colors work for that fair-skinned brunette beauty with brown eyes.

Bring a friend that will be honest with you and have fun with it!




Brown Eyes:
Try these shades for your everyday or office look:

    Champagnes
    Peach with golds
    Soft Pinks/Mauves
    Taupes
    Soft Browns


Quick tip: You can choose to line your upper lid but keep the lower eye liner very soft, not too penciled in. Try using the pencil brush on the lower eye line.




Brown Eyes:
To spice it up a little bit, try the following shades:

    Rich Chocolates
    Deep Greens
    Royal Blues
    Dark Gray
    Deep Plums
    Pale Blues

Another quick tip: Line your eyes with a dark brown or black shadow or pencil and then apply black mascara. For a more smokey eye, line your lower lid with brown or black pencil. Then try using the pencil brush to blend the color you used on your upper lid together with the pencil.



Insider brand favorites for eyeshadows:

    Nars
    Stila
    M. A. C. Cosmetics
    Dior
    Becca
    Cargo
    Bobbi Brown


Quick Tip: Your looks also vary not only by the color of the eye shadow but by the shape of your eye. Be careful to NOT to bring the color too high onto the brow bone area. The more blending that you do, the more natural it will look. Look and determine the shape of your eye to see what techniques work best for you.
