i think ur skin is best suited to warm colours like brown, warm pink - so perhaps u could try a smokey brown eye - heres how i do mine:





1. Use a light (skin toned) colour all over the eye- lashes to brow.


2. Use a black pencil eyeliner and line above the top lashes- doesn鈥檛 matter too much if it鈥榮 a bit messy.


3. Use a cotton bud with a dark eyeshadow on it and go over the eyeliner- making it smudgy.


4. Line under the bottom lashes with a pencil eyeliner and smudge using a clean cotton bud/smudging pen.


5. Use a middle toned eyeshadow (an in-between colour of the ones using) and go over the lid of your eye and just up to the brow bone or just above the crease- which ever you like better.


6. Blend or smudge the middle colour upwards into the lighter colour- just the top edge of the middle colour so you still have colour on your lid.


7. Use mascara- and don鈥檛 forget eyelash curler first- apply mascara to the bottom aswell-if you want.Best makeup tips for dark Brown eyes and dark skin?
Lilac, (paler than purple) green, blue and pale grey eye shadows look amazing on brown eyes. If you go to a Mac counter, they will show you quite a few eye shadow鈥檚 that look great on brown eyes. Some may be those colours that you think are gross but with a soft wash over the lid your eyes just pop.

that's a video with a girl showing you how to get a glam look.





what you should really do though is go to a MAC/Bobbi Brown/ Lancome/etc counter at the mall or something and tell them you want to get your makeup done. call ahead and ask them what their policy is. i know mac makes you buy one item, so it could be some $13 lip gloss. reserve a time and go ahead with an idea of what you want or a picture.


this is the essence magazine website beauty section. this is kind of a glam look but they have other looks on there...
