Daytime makeup for brown eyes

Daytime makeup for brown eyes is the easiest to perform, since the brown iris of the eye already provides the main advantage - it provides an expressive and bright look even without makeup.

But daytime makeup is necessary to achieve a well-groomed appearance of the face, emphasizing the main advantage - a lively sparkle in the eyes. With the help of makeup, imperfections are also hidden: blueness under the eyes, fine wrinkles and a tired appearance.

To apply beautiful makeup for brown eyes, you need to prepare your face for it. To do this you will need the following cosmetics:

  • day cream or special base cream if the skin has unevenness;
  • Foundation;
  • proofreaders;
  • powder.

1. A layer of foundation is applied to cleansed skin.

If the skin is perfectly smooth and has no imperfections, then you can start immediately with foundation, applying it in a thin, even layer.

  • The foundation should be chosen to match the tone of your natural skin so that it does not stand out against the background of your neck and arms.
  • A high-quality cream has a uniform consistency and does not slide into the recesses of wrinkles.

2. Without correctors, daily makeup can be done if you do not need to correct face shapes or redness on the skin. Dark correctors can hide overly wide cheekbones, and light ones can, on the contrary, visually make them wider.

3. Powder is applied on top of the foundation. There should not be a lot of it on the brush: just lightly touch the powder and then shake it off. The powder should match the skin tone, it should not highlight skin imperfections, much less roll into the grooves of wrinkles.

Selecting Shadows

The most difficult moment is choosing the right range of colors that will add beauty to the face, and not make it painful.

The choice of color palette depends not only on the shade of brown eyes, but also on the chosen clothes, skin and hair color. Light daytime makeup, for example, should not be full of bright colors, unlike the evening version.

Depending on various factors, girls with brown eyes should choose the following color scheme of eye shadow for daytime makeup:


The choice of color palette depends on the color saturation of the iris. Shadows that highlight light brown eyes may be completely useless for those with dark brown eyes, and vice versa.

Below is a table where each shade of brown is contrasted with recommended shades of eyeshadow.

Shade of brown color

Walnut

This is the lightest shade of brown. Therefore, such eyes require special highlighting against the general background. How to make them brighter? To do this, you cannot overshadow them with dark shadows. Ideal for use are pinkish-lilac eyeshadows or eyeshadows of a color called “champagne”.

Light brown

Owners of light brown eyes are distinguished by a mysterious look, full of unknown secrets. Light shades of eyeshadow will help highlight your natural beauty. Dark tones can only be applied to the crease of the eyelid. A brown contour pencil would be an excellent addition.
Those with pure brown eyes are incredibly lucky! They can safely choose shadows of any color, saturation and shade, since everything suits them. But beautiful daytime makeup should be as close to natural as possible, so you shouldn’t use flashy colors.

Dark brown

For almost black eyes, it is important to find the optimal line between dark and light shadows. You need to use both. Experiment to achieve the desired result.

Eyeliner, pencil and mascara

  • Daytime makeup for brown eyes will be more impressive if you design the brow ridges.

Eyebrows are first styled using a special brush. The desired shade of the eyebrows is achieved by tinting them with a pencil.


They acquire an attractive appearance thanks to thin arrows drawn above the eyelash growth line on the moving eyelid. They are carried out starting from the inner corner of the eyes towards the outer corner.

Arrows that look beyond the edge of the natural cut with a line ascending upward look impressive.

  • If you do everyday makeup for brown eyes, then you should not overuse black mascara eyeliner, especially if it is highly saturated. Leave colors such as gray, purple, blue or gold until you need to apply evening makeup.

For a daytime option, brown eyeliner is ideal, or better yet, a contour pencil, as it will create more blurry boundaries with a hazy effect. To do this, blend the line drawn with a pencil with a brush or sponge.

  • For office work, the color of the pencil should match the color of the eyes, and the line drawn should be very thin.
  • Eye makeup is completed by applying mascara to the upper and lower eyelashes. With its help, the image takes on a finished look. At the same time, the eyelashes become long and lush, which gives the eyes even more expressiveness.

  • For brown eyes with blond hair, it is better to use brown mascara to make the eyes look as natural as possible. For brunettes, the ideal option is coal-black high-quality mascara.

Blush and lipstick

Daytime makeup for brown-eyed women ends with lipstick and blush. Here it is important to use natural colors so as not to look provocative.

  • Blush in the daytime version should be light sand or soft pink. Bright shades of pink and terracotta blush colors are only suitable for evening makeup.
  • The finishing touch is lip coloring. If they have a vague outline, then a light-colored pencil will help to emphasize it.

In order not to take men's gaze away from beautiful eyes, lipstick should not be bright: peach and caramel shades are quite suitable.
