Makeup allows people to enhance and embellish their natural beauty, and this is especially true with eyeshadow. Eyeshadow creates dramatic and accentuated eyes, which draws positive attention to one of the most daring and attractive parts of the face. Learning how to apply eyeshadow for brown skin includes being able to select colors that complement the natural tones and hues of the skin. Consider the following as you study how to apply eyeshadow for brown skin.

Steps

  1. Assess the undertones of your skin color. Depending on whether you have light brown skin or dark brown skin, your color palette will vary for eye liner, eyeshadow and mascara.
  2. Select eyeshadows that are both rich in color and powder-based.
    • For those with lighter skin, eyeshadow that falls in the champagne color range may be favorable. Eyeshadow for darker skin can be in the coral family.
    • If you don't have access to a makeup brush, or you don't like the resulting effect, many people choose to apply the eyeshadow with the tip of the index finger.
  3. Add bright pink shades just to your lids using a makeup bush. Pink accents the natural hues of dark skin. When applying, don't go above the natural crease of the eye.
  4. Apply a black or dark brown mascara to your upper eyelashes. When applying, start at the base of the lashes and move up to the lash ends. Move the brush in a slight back and forth motion as you move up. This prevents the mascara from clumping.
  5. Brush a cream-based neutral shade eyeshadow on your lids for another look. Start at the lash line and stop at the lid crease.
  6. Apply a shimmery gold eyeshadow over the neutral base. The base will help the gold color stand out.
  7. Look for gold eyeshadows that emphasize bronze or copper tones.
  8. Apply a thick line under the eye with a blue-green pencil for another look. Extend just past the outside corner of the eye.
  9. Blend a shimmery eyeshadow over the eyeliner pencil line. Use a makeup brush to achieve the best blending.
  10. Add a small amount of white or neutral eyeshadow to the inside corner of your eye.
  11. Cover the eyelid in black with a creamy eyeliner pencil. Stop at the natural lid crease.
  12. Apply a blue-green eyeshadow over the black eyeliner pencil on the lid. Blend well.
  13. Add a light brown or similarly warm color eyeshadow above the lid.
  14. Line your lids with a black eyeliner. Use a liquid eyeliner for the most clearly demarcated line. Apply as close to the lash line as possible.
  15. Apply a dark mascara to the upper and lower lashes.

Tips

  • Experiment with different colors and methods until you achieve a desired result.
  • When you make the eyes the focus of your makeup routine, make everything else subtle. Pair smoky eyes and heavy eyeshadows with light and neutral lip glosses or pale rouges for the cheeks.

Warnings

  • Applying an eyeshadow shade above the eyelid crease can make the look overly dramatic. Stop at the crease and blend the colors into the space between the eyebrows and the lid.
