Brown-green eyes are truly a gift. They make the owner of this eye color mysterious and interesting. Makeup artists claim that makeup for such eyes can be done using various shades. How to do makeup correctly in this case and what colors can be combined? Let's try to find answers to these questions.
Decorative cosmetics
Makeup must be done in stages. You should start by cleansing your facial skin. Before you begin directly applying decorative cosmetics, you need to even out your skin tone. A foundation is used for this; it will help hide imperfections on the skin (redness, pimples, etc.). It must be applied in a thin layer, since a thick, dense layer of the product will create a mask effect on your face. It must be remembered that the color of the skin of the face and neck should not differ after applying foundation.
Eye shadows are chosen depending on the occasion and the clothes you are going to wear. But still, makeup artists give some practical advice:
- The first layer of shadow over the entire eyelid should be thin and made with pearlescent or matte beige shadows.
- You can use dark shades, which should be darker than the iris.
- To prevent your eyes from appearing red, as with inflammation or prolonged crying, you should avoid bright and rich shades of pink, brown, and blue.
- Girls with drooping eyelids should not use sharp contrasting transitions, for example, combining white and charcoal black. In this case, the “smoky eye” technique is well suited; the transition from one color to another should be smooth and imperceptible. This type of makeup is perfect for a wedding.
In this case, pencil and eyeliner can be used in black and brown versions. Those with close-set eyes need to line their eyelids, starting from the middle. Draw a line to the outer corner of the eyes along the upper and lower eyelids. Eyebrows, as a rule, do not require the application of any products.
Mascara should separate the eyelashes well to create a natural look. Its color can be any: brown, green and black. You need to learn how to correctly combine shades and colors in eye makeup.
Lipstick and gloss can be natural or brighter shades. Red-orange, pink and orange colors are suitable. But for brown-gray-green eyes, natural shades of lipstick and non-pearlescent glosses are more suitable. Eyeliner for such girls is suitable in a brown shade.
Gray-green eyes
A wonderful color combination is the combination of gray-green eyes and pastel shades. It is only important to choose which color is decisive: gray or green?
If the priority color is gray, then you need to use black and cold gray shades.
You can also use shadows with a pearlescent tint, thanks to which the eyes acquire an intriguing shade. Dark tones, in turn, should be used more.
You should also focus on hair color. An everyday tone for blondes with gray-green eyes would be a light gray or pearl tone. For hot brunettes and red-haired beasts, the best solution would be eyeshadow with a green palette. Green shadows are also suitable for fair-haired ladies, but they should be used in combination with black eyeliner.
Makeup options for brown-green eyes for different occasions
Make up for every day should be restrained and moderate. The entire upper eyelid is covered with a light shade (flesh or beige). The moving eyelid should be slightly darkened with brown shadows. Everyday makeup can be complemented with neat arrows made with eyeliner. In the crease of the eyelid we apply a brown color slightly darker than the shade that was applied to the entire moving eyelid. However, the daytime look does not tolerate too dark shades and thick application of shadows.
Makeup artists do not recommend using blush, but if you want, you should take a natural light shade. The whole look should be natural, the eyeliner should be invisible. Lipstick in natural shades or clear lip balm.
Evening make-up is done in bright colors, but do not overdo it with the amount of cosmetics, so as not to overload the image and look vulgar. In this case, the eyebrows can be highlighted a little. Green shades are applied to the moving eyelid. The inner corner of the eye should not be darkened, as this technique will make the look heavy, especially if you have small eyes.
We follow the growth of eyelashes with dark brown shadows. You can also line your eyes with eyeliner. It is better to use lengthening mascara; it can be applied in several layers.
