Smoky Eyes
Smoky eye done in shades of blue for brown eyes?
A question for all the makeup experts. I know most people do a smoky black/gray eye but having dark brown eyes, does a smokey blue eye done in navy, teal, and cobalt blue colors look good or not? What do you think? Thank you all for your time!
Brown eyes look wonderful in blues! You can use navy, teal and cobalt, but they need to be darker versions of these colors...not bright. In other words, imagine a sort of teal with grey tones mixed in. You can find a greater range of shades to work with if you go with online mineral makeup companies, some of my favorites are....

You'll also need a smoky eyeliner in a dark bluish or greyish color to tie everything together.
Good luck and have fun!!!
