  I have dark brown eyes, too. A lot of the make up that is meant to enhance/play up brown eyes seems to work for the lighter brown eyes, but i’ll def. give this look a try. you can also search on totalbeauty.com for how to play up brown eyes. they did an article about how even some blush and lipstick colors can help.

I wish you would make a list of all the must-have MAC eyeshadows (or your favorites) though.. :)

Brown eyes definitely make your eyes bigger and stand out. Looking good girl!

Looove this golden eyeshadow! It’s so pigmented!

Can I suggest something here? I’ve never seen any youtube tutorial about make up for middle-age women. I mean, we always see 40s and 50s years old women on tv/movies with some great make up, but in real life I try to help my mom with her make up and everything I try to do seems like too much: concealer/foundtion/powder make her wrinkles pop and she’s got too much skin in her eyelids to put any eyeshadow. What about a tutorial teaching us? =)

thanks so much!

This is soooo pretty! I love this look. By the way, a long time ago, in your january 2010 makeup collection, you had a photo of some lip products and there were some Lime Crime lipsticks there. Are you thinking of doing a review on those anytime soon?
saraaa

I have a new Fierce Friday idea. I just got done watching The Runaways with Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning and the whole all girl Rock n Roll kind of inspired me. You do amazing stuff with make-up so I would love to see what you could come up with.

Even if it was something to do with early punk rock looks, look at Joan Jett or Cherie Currie from the band.

Hope you use my idea :)

This look is so pretty and original! On another note, did you do a look with these shadows: mylar, woodwinked, sketch, and some MAC pinkish shade. My friend bought these colors because she saw you use them (she can’t remember what video), and I can’t find it. If you have time to reply, I would appreciate it. Thank you, and I love your videos!

Wow, this is such a pretty look, I like the blue/purple under your eyes! And you’re right, those lenses look fabulous on you! They really do open your eyes up!
Selma

Oh I really like this! And i love your contacts!
Anyway, i have read in several diffrent magazines and on the internet that green eyeshadow really focuses on brown eyes. And i have tried it myself and it really does! I have really dark brown eyes, they look like black tbh, but when i had green eyeshadow on, you could really see that my eyes are brown! Really cool :D
