Eye Shadow Color for Dark Brown Eyes - Soft Pink

In a previous post about the best eye shadow color for dark brown eyes, I used olive. (You can view the post here.) 

Olive received great feedback. Today, I am introducing another one of the best eye shadow color for brown eyes -- soft pink.

To demonstrate, I am using "Pink Chiffon" by Cover Girl. "Pink Chiffon" is a shimmery eye shadow that looks natural and pretty. Its tender color flatters most skin tones, and its shimmery effect brightens the darkest, dullest eyes.

(By the way, for cheap eye shadows, Cover Girl Eye Enhancers offer wonderful quality and a wide range of colors. Powders never fall loose, and colors last for hours.)

Cover Girl Eye Enhancer -- One of the Best Cheap Eye Shadows Out There


 

 Step 1


Line upper and bottom lash lines with a dark brown or black eye liner.




Using: NYX, another one of my favorite cheap make up brands.



Makeup Tip: to add drama, thicken the line on top.

Step 2 (Optional)


Using an eyeliner brush, or a sponge tip, smudge the stop line.





Step 3


Using a blending brush, apply the shimmery eye shadow all over lids.




Makeup Tip: Use circular motion to apply color evenly.

Step 4


Curl lashes. Add mascara.





Done.

Soft, pink, shimmery eye shadow -- one of the best eye shadows for dark brown eyes.





Do you think soft pink is a good eye shadow color for brown eyes?

  13. Yes, It's a very nice look. Subtle yet makes your eyes pop.

    Thank you for the step-by-step. I usually put my liner on last and then soften it. Then sometimes, I need to add a bit more shadow.

    I'm going to give your method a try. Might save some time AND eye shadow.
