Best Tips on Makeup for Dark Eyes

Dark eyes are enchanting as they are, but with the perfect eye makeup, they can be so much more.  So many dark eyed women feel that they cannot decide on which dark brown eye makeup would be perfect for their eye color.  Here are some of the best tips that you can find anywhere.

1. First things first, you need to decide whether you are playing up your eyes or your lips; it cannot be both.  If you choose to highlight your peepers, make sure that you stick with very light lipstick or just use tinted lip gloss.

2. Make sure that you regularly tame your eyebrows by tweezing wayward hair.  This makes your eyes look bigger and the application of eye shadow easier and smoother.  If you are not too keen on tweezing, schedule appointments for waxing or threading.

3. With that out of the way, you can concentrate on trying out different shades for your eyes.  Before purchasing an eye shadow, make sure to try the hues on the inside of your elbow.  The skin there would be a much better match to the skin surrounding your eyes.

4. Making sure that the dark brown eye makeup that you choose complements your skin tone is one way to avoid disastrous effects of your eye makeup.

5. If you are going for a sultry look, you can try learning the smoky eye effect.  Dark eyeliner smudged from the lash line upwards to the brow is the first step.  Afterwards, you can use a purple shade on the crease.  Blend cleanly and then line your lower lash line with the same pencil. On the lower lash line, you also need to smudge but make sure you do not overdo that because you might end up looking like a drowned rat. Afterwards, make your lashes look fuller with mascara.

6. You can use different shades of mascara like blue or purple to make your eyes stand out even better.

7. Gold eye shadow also works excellently with dark brown eyes.  This hue can bring out the sometimes unnoticed golden flecks so many brown eyed women have.

8. If you want to look a bit sexier, there’s a style akin to cat’s eye that only calls for liquid black eyeliner.  Line just above your top lash line and finish with an upward stroke just outside the corner.  Make sure that you have steady hands and lots of practice because you need to finish this in just one stroke. You can check out dark eye makeup pictures over the Internet.

9. If you think that you are wearing too much dark eye shadows, you can break the monotony by using a white eye liner instead of the dark ones.  White liner makes your eyes look fresher.

10. If you are just starting to experiment with your eye makeup or are looking to find a new style, squeeze in a few practice sessions before going to the main event.  On the weekend, play with your makeup.  You can certainly learn a lot about your perfect eye makeup this way.

The best dark brown eye makeup can be achieved by using all the resources you have.  Also, you can get more techniques from professional makeup artists.  Do not hesitate to have makeup sales persons to try out their new releases on your face, you just might get more styles to try out.
