Hey ladies I'm going to a wedding next weekend and I need some ideas on eye makeup
Im wearing a pearly pink dress and I have brown eyes so I don't normally steer to faraway from my blue eyeshadow ...any ideas?

    What about having a pastel pink but then blending blue in at the outer corner of your eye? i always do this with colours and it looks fab xxx

    Ivory / Cream leading out into just a little shimmering lilac would look nice.

    inside corner - cream / ivory
    middle - cream / ivory swept into lilac
    outside corner - lilac with just a hint of darker purple

    blend well and should look pretty .x

    try pink. you have brown eyes, so i think you can pull it off. >.< my sister in chile has brown eyes and she wears colors that match her outfits :D she always looks put together too~

    another suggestion (if you are up for it) is to buy colored contacts (circle lenses) in pink ^o^

    Have fun~<3

    I have brown eyes, too. Plums and purples can be gorgeous. Also, cream/golden eyeshadow with bronze eyeliner is lovely. However, the plums and purples might do better with the pink dress.

    How about totally toning back the eyes with neutral browns and creams with a sheen, then bring attention to your lips with a hot pink lipstick and gloss and a pop of pink blusher.

    Do smokey eyes in brown and taupe shades. If an evening wedding, add a little shimmer to the shadows. Keep lips and cheeks neutral and understated.

    A smokey eye with shades of plum and burgundy look good with brown eyes. I like Carmindy's (makeup artist on What Not To Wear) line with Sally Hansen.

    http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com/product-reviews/sally-hansen-natural-beauty-inspired-by-carmindy-a-smokey-plum-face-of-the-day/

    It looks a little garish on that sample, but it's pretty and soft on my light skin - dark hair - dark eyes combo.

    http://www.sallyhansennaturalbeauty.com - Go to Eyes, then "Instant Definition Eye Shadow Palette." I've used "quartz," "amethyst" and "storm," and they're all gorgeous.

    I'd stick to a neutral eyeshadow colour like a creamy brown and define your eyes with liquid/pencil eyeliner, keep it natural xxx

    u always want to accentuate either the eyes or lips, never both....so my advice is simple simi dark (but not to dark u dont wanna look goth) smokey eye (dont forget to highlight ur brow bone) and a natural lip color (like nude, mocha, or even pal pink) with a little shine and you'll look great! trust me im a make-up artist. ;)

    Plum/purple or gold would both be awesome! I'd do a smokey eye, plenty of mascara, and very natural blush and gloss. Don't forget to shape your brows!
