Brown and Dark-Brown Eyes: “Brown eyes come in the widest range of tones. Layering a variety of browns from caramel to praline to espresso will play up your unique dimension,” says Sotomayor. Sculpt your eyes by blending lighter, creamier shades on the lid and browbone, and then adding richer, chocolate colors into the crease, lash-line, and outer corner.
