    You don't need to wear makeup. Blue eyes look beautiful on their own. Although, you can highlight your your eyes and wear compact. Remember that being simple is the best.

    It depends on how you want to bring them out. Brown eyes are very versatile, and it's very easy to make them pop. Because you want to bring out the brown and not an undertone, try wearing either a navy blue or burgundy mascara. I would also recommend using a gold liner pencil on your waterline.

    If you have gray and green undertones in your eyes, you'll need to cancel those out, which isn't really possible. Try bringing out the blue in your eyes to make them pop. Do a neutral look with cool toned neutral colors and to make your eyes look as purple as possible without contacts, try using a navy blue mascara and use a dark purple eyeliner pencil on your waterline.

    How can I make my eye color lighter naturally? My eyes are green.

    Although you cannot change the color of your eye naturally, wearing makeup opposite of the color wheel always gives eyes a nice pop. (For example, I have blue eyes, so I use oranges and reds.)

    Which colors and tricks make hazel eyes (brown more green) look more brown, more dark? How can I bring the brown out?
    Community Answer
    To bring out your brown eyes, break out the blue. Try lighter shades of blue, such as cornflower or pale cyan, for a nice contrast with pale shades of brown. Intense blues, like turquoise or cerulean, will carry the intensity of deep brown eyes.
  • Question
    What hair color is good for dark brown eyes?
    Community Answer
    If you have a cool skin tone and a cool eye color, try a cool hair color such as dark brown. If you have a warm skin tone and a warm eye color, try a warm hair color such as golden. You can have a bit of contrast, but make sure the tones match. You can also use hair chalk or virtual hair color try-on to see which color fits best.

    What should I use for not light brown but not dark eyes? How can I make them stand out? My hair is red/orange.
    Community Answer
    Wear brown, purple, and pink if your brown eyes are more golden than warm in hue. Also, you could dye you hair a different color that contrasts your eye color. Since both your hair and eyes are towards the warm side of the color wheel, you could also wear cool colors such as purple.
