Smokey eyes are a true staple look in the makeup repertoire of almost any girl. Those luscious warming tones create an eye makeup look which will never go out of fashion. With brown eyes however, you can get away with implementing red tones into your look. Start with gold in the inner corner and blend out towards a dark, matte shade of red for a unique twist on a smokey eye classic.

Blend outwards towards a dark brown towards the outer corner. Use a light matte brown to blend throughout the crease. Finish with liquid eyeliner and lashings of mascara.

Matte shades are incredibly popular in all aspects of beauty lately – and we just adore matte eyeshadows. Nude and pink shades work especially well with brown eyes, so be sure to incorporate these into your makeup regime. Start with a nude pink matte shade and blend from the inner corner out. Take a lighter brown through the crease and finish with a darker brown at the outer corners.
