 How do you make up brown eyes? Techniques, tips and all occasions to make them stand out

Making brown eyes stand out is easy with the choice of the perfect make-up. This colour offers a wide range of possibilities thanks to its versatility and the beauty of its shades. Let's take a look together at the best combinations and the various occasions.

Brings out brown eyes with the right colours

To make brown eyes stand out with make-up, the trick is to choose complementary colours. A great classic is the use of a nude palette. Brown tones, from the lightest to the most intense, are the perfect allies for brown eyes. You can switch from daytime make-up with light shades to more intense make-up for the evening, such as smokey eyes. The secret is to use different textures, such as glitter or shimmer eyeshadows, to give light and three-dimensionality to the make-up.

Brown eyes also look great with lighter make-up shades such as light blue, violet and green. Those who want to add a touch of colour can opt for bright eyeshadow palettes or coloured eyeliners in blue or green.

Brown eye make-up: tutorial

Start by applying an eye primer specifically for brown eyes all over the mobile eyelid. The primer is essential to make the make-up last longer and prevent eyeshadow from accumulating in the creases.
Once the primer is dry, apply a neutral-coloured base eyeshadow, such as a light beige or light brown, over the entire mobile eyelid. This will create an even base for the other colours. Next, to give depth to the look, use a medium brown eye shadow in the crease of the eye, blending it well with back and forth movements to avoid sharp lines.

To make the make-up more harmonious, choose a transitional colour, such as a warm brown or soft orange, and apply it above the crease of the eye, between the brow bone and the crease. Blend with circular movements to achieve a gradual transition between colours. Now it is time for the main colour of your make-up. Perfect for brown eyes are bronze, violet and all metallic tones. Apply the product dry or wet to intensify the effect.

Step not to forget is to use black eyeliner or brown eye pencils to draw a thin line along the upper lash line, lengthening it slightly outwards for a more dramatic effect.
Finally, curl your lashes with an eyelash curler and apply two or three coats of black mascara, concentrating on the roots to give volume and length.
For an extra touch of brightness, you can add a shimmer eyeshadow or illuminant in the inner corner of the eye and under the eyebrow arch.

Make-up ceremony brown eyes

Make-up for Daytime Ceremony

If you are invited to a ceremony or are the star of the event and want a light but striking make-up, go for a brown pencil. Soft colours combined with a well applied brown pencil are perfect for a daytime look. Apply the pencil between the upper lashes and gently blend it outwards. Choose a long-lasting but easy to blend pencil. Fix it with an eye shadow of the same colour and continue blending for an even effect. Complete the look with plenty of mascara and you will be ready for the day!

Make-up for Evening Ceremony: brown smokey eyes

For an evening ceremony, brown or black smokey eyes are the ideal choice to enhance all shades of brown eyes. Start with a light base and then gradually darken, using different transitional colours for a natural degradé effect. For a bright touch, apply a shimmer eyeshadow to the centre of the eyelid. Don't forget black eyeliner and a volumising mascara. For a more dramatic look, you can apply false eyelashes. By following these steps, your evening make-up will be elegant and sophisticated.
