Eye make-up advice for brown or black eyes

Deep shades that will highlight your dark eyes (dark grey, navy blue, brown, black, deep plum, etc) .

 

Pastel or shades that are too light. They will bring out the whites of your eyes and make your eyes look a bit washed out.
 

To add light to your eyes, avoid matte eyeshadows, instead use metallic shadows that will reflect your eyes beautifully (gold, copper, bronze, golden brown, silver-grey, etc).

To add intensity to your eyes, apply black, navy blue or plum-brown liner along the length of your lash lines.
