    Good question... umm I can't really say but my sister has your same problem. She is dark skinned and can't seem to find the right colors. We have looked online so many times and they give us the same answer... purple, olive colors, golds and pink undertones. So I hope someone responds to this question with good advice so I can pass it along to my sister. : )

    Are you kidding?
    You could use so many types of colors... I have light golden brown skin and I use soft pinks, aqua-teal, berry-like colors even pale yellow... really the list is endless I can't think of a color that doesn't look amazing on my skin (when done RigHT).

    Just experiment, Try CoverGirl's Queen Collection it's made with -brown skin- in mind! I like Rimmel London too but really this isn't an issue you just have to experiment :)

    Something that really could work could be mixing colors to make your own I'm not a pro but I do all my friends special occasion makeup and they look truly fabulous
    Try light goldish orange with a little bit of peach color blend it, I prefer a color with shimmer its easier to mix
    Get back at me and let me know if it work

    Whether you have light brown or deep brown eyes, you have plenty of color choices. Deep shades of blue and brown, copper, blue gray, plum, gold, vanilla, shades of purple and violet, nutmeg would be the best choice for brown eyes.

    You can use two or three tones of eyeshadow but three tones are better.
    Different tones of metallic - metallic in gold, bronze, browns and pinks help brown eyes stand out in the most attractive way.Shades lighter than your eyes give your eyes natural look while darker shades will bring your eyes dramatic look. For more natural look, you can try shades of beige, peach, champagne, pinks, pale purples and browns.
