"BRUNETTE" With "BROWN EYES" This is Your Makeup Look!!!

If you're a brunette with brown eyes, I'm going to need you to lock in, save this video, send it to a brunette friend of yours because this is one of the most classic, easy, and foolproof makeup looks you could do that's going to enhance, bring out, and just perfectly complement your brown eyes and or brown hair combo. So if that sounds like you, this video is uncut, let's dive right into it because we have a lot to put on our face and I don't want to keep you here all day long. This is actually inspired recently. I work with one brunette client on a regular basis. Brown eyes, medium brown hair, pretty medium to tanned skin, and these are the kind of techniques that I love to use on her specifically, so I thought I would translate it and share it with you all on camera. So not these exact products, these are products that are my personal ones, not products that are in my pool kit, my pro kit, my pool kit, my pro kit. I did play pool the other night with Mitch, it was really fun. Anyway, these are my personal items, let's dive into it. The first thing you're going to want to grab is some kind of eye paint, it could be a shadow stick, it could be a cream eye shadow like in a pot, it could be this Armani one. I just grabbed this, it's a really pretty color. I actually do have this color in my kit. This is the shade 30M, which there's an actual name for it on the website, but I don't know what it is. We're going to take this, okay, you're going to dot on one half of your eyelid. These are pigmented, you kind of need to work quickly with them. So let me grab an N16 brush, wipe off the excess product from using this previously, and you're going to blend this all across the eyelid. This is not going to be an overly complicated makeup look, I promise you. It's going to be pretty simple, pretty digestible. So the goal is to blend this all over, and it doesn't have to be perfect. With this type of makeup look, honestly this had a little bit of glitter shadow on it, so I'm gonna put that one back in a way. See? And let's grab a different N16, and I really should wash my brushes one of these days. I really should just should really just commit to it, because my gosh, it would really serve me so well. Okay, let's grab this bad boy right here. Let's grab an N13. So the idea of this is you're just laying down a base layer of color, and with brunettes, if you really want to just enhance and complement without using like a complementary color, right, clearly we're going for like a monochromatic look here. We're not going for like anything on the opposite of the color wheel. We're not going in depth like that. We're going more monochromatic, which in my opinion is one of the most classic and iconic ways to enhance your brunette features, whether it's your brunette your brunette hair, or your brown eyes, or some variation in that. By complementing, by using like those exact colors and creating like a monochromatic look, it's really, really flattering, and it feels more like lived in, and less makeup is on your skin. It feels more like organic to what's already happening. If that makes sense, comment below, let me know. I'm going to go back in with more Armani, because I should really blend this out one side at a time. I kind of forgot how fast these dry. So I'm going to grab that N13, excuse me. Can you tell I've had actually a lot of coffee today, and it's almost working against me? So we're blending this up. The goal is to get in there prior to foundation, and make a mess. It's okay. You're going to make a mess. Clearly I made a mess right here. It's totally fine, because we're going to clean it up with concealer, and a makeup wipe, and all that stuff. In the meantime, I'm just going to rub a little bit of this in, just like that. So once again, you're not going for perfection. We're not going for like perfectly sculpted. We're going for more like lived in, and trying to achieve a feeling of like this could be naturally occurring on our face already. That's the best way I could describe the inspiration for this kind of makeup look. So lots of layers of the same brown, right? So we're layering different tonalities of brown. We're layering like a little bit of neutral brown, a little bit of some warm brown, and obviously different depths of brown as well. We're not just going for all dark brown. We're not going for all light brown. We're layering different variations of brown to give this like kind of a simple makeup look some like more of a complex feeling. All right, so blending this up into the crease. You'll notice too I'm not starting out with an overly blanked out eyelid. The reason for that is to make, to help aid in this looking more lived in, and like it's naturally occurring with your features. You want to actually play with whatever like visible veins or visible discoloration or even like redness or darkness you have naturally occurring on your eyelid rather than blanking it out which could look more unnatural. It'll make eyeshadow colors pop more, but again going back to like this should be more lived in and feel more natural to your your brunette hair and your brown eyes. So don't blank out your eyelids. You can do a little bit of pressed powder just to mattify them if you have greasy eyelids like I do which is what I did prior to filming and that's going to help you out a lot. But using an eyeshadow primer or eyeshadow paint, excuse me, like this one or an eyeshadow stick, those are going to help to prolong the overall like eyeshadow look so your more oily eyelids don't eat up the powder eyeshadow that's going to go on top. So this is working as our primer but in a colored way. All right, we're not going to blend for hours and hours. This looks great. This looks blended enough and we get to move on to the next step. I'm actually going to use this same brush. One of my favorite palettes for brunettes because it's so neutral. It's not overly warm. It's not orange. It's also not too cool. It's like a perfect perfectly done neutral palette. It's the Hung Van Goh New Neutral Palette. I forgot it's called that. So I'm going to take this light medium brown that's matte, tap off the excess, and just run this along the base of my eyelid. This is going to lock in the Armani even more, add some subtle smoke, some more depth, and just some more interest. So same thing. Not really focusing it in the crease, just focusing it on the lid, sweeping it across, and then with whatever's left over just blending lightly into the crease. I'm going to switch brushes one more time. I'm going to grab an N22 brush, which is actually clean, shockingly. Yay me. And I'm going to dip into this deeper neutral brown. Now what I love to do is bring my mirror closer so I could see better. And then I'm going to use this to do a drop shadow. It's kind of like an eyeliner, a shadow eyeliner look, but when you smudge it out, it just adds like this hint of extra shadow and just sultriness to this look. We're not going overly defined. Again, we're just creating layers of different browns and therefore layers of depth to this eye makeup. And I really urge you to, if you're going to try this at home, if you are a brunette with brown eyes, or if you just, if you're a blonde and you just want to try this out, like try it out. It is not just for brunettes with dark brown hair. Anyone can do this technique and these whole, all these colors together. It just, this happens to be one of the most overall flattering makeup looks for brunettes. But try it out. And I urge you, if you do try it out, to not overly perfect it. Don't overly blend. Don't overly perfect it. Don't be, you know, absolutely precise with every movement because that wouldn't be, that wouldn't be how like this would naturally organically appear on your skin, right? If you want it to look like it's naturally occurring and it's just part of our overall structure, it shouldn't be perfect. At least not overly perfect. All right, so that looks really pretty. I'm loving the way that looks. Same technique. Feel free to fast forward if you don't want to see this side repeated. It's totally up to you, but it's here if you want to see it. And don't be afraid to blend with your finger to smudge it out, to remove excess with your fingertip. But already this is making my feel so sultry. Think Monica Bellucci. That's the perfect, the perfect example of what this makeup look is going to look and feel like at the end. So think Monica Bellucci, iconic 90s actress. Reminds me of my childhood. If you don't know who she is, please look her up. She's absolutely iconic and so beautiful. Such a classic beauty. But her makeup is very much like telling the same tale. It always did. It was very, very much looked like it was just a part of her being and not overly makeupy. All right, smudging and smudging. We're looking good. Like I said, we're not going to stick around to overly complicated and overly blend over and over again. We're going to move on when it's good enough. I'm going to layer, I'm going to see how Chocolate Brown looks with this. I've had this in mind for this makeup look, so I want to see what this looks like. It's a little bit lighter, but it's still going to add some depth. So let's try some Chocolate Brown. This is from Mature Beauty. I'll have this link below. And this is a really creamy pencil. Let me actually sharpen it because I need to sharpen it. It's a really creamy kohl pencil. So I'm going to apply it to the top lash line, but I'm going to first wiggle this in between where my top and bottom lash line meet and then gradually blend this across. And we're layering. Yeah, perfect. It's giving different dimension. It's more warm, obviously. It's a chocolatey brown, not like a dark chocolate, but like a milk chocolate. So it's got a little more red in it. So we're not just one dimensional with the brown. There's a good mix going on. And if you look up to, like going back to referencing Monica Bellucci for this makeup look, if you go back and just see any of her photos from back in the day, her makeup, first of all, it was never heavy on the blush. So we're actually going to follow that trend too. And just not that trend, but like that vibe and not do much blush, which I think is very flattering for this type of intense eye makeup look. And also the lip that we're going to do. I think it's going to be nice to have the blush take backseat and not be a focal point. We want this and this and just all of this to be the focal point and not like the blush. So the blush will be soft and natural looking. And I think I'm going to go with Blush Please from MAC Cosmetics. Should be a perfect no blush blush tone for this makeup. A little more eyeliner. Again, for an uncut, you signed up for the whole process, but you could totally skip through and fast forward if you need to. I will not be offended. Pushing this, layering it. And I think we're going to do a little bit along the waterline. I'm being gentle with my pressure because I don't want to apply, I don't want to deposit too much pigment. I want to try to stop somewhere in between where it's not an overload of too much eyeliner because my eyes on the bottom lash line can't really handle that too well. I'm going to go back to the N22. I'm going to wipe off on a clean paper towel below me the excess shadow. And we're going to just take this with whatever's left over on it and just blend the two worlds together, giving this a much more lived in look once again. And now you're going to really see like this is why we saved the base for after because this allowed us to not only like rest my pinky on my face, to really get in there to just blend away and not worry about fallout when I'm working with darker brown layers of shadow and liner. So if you're doing this at home, just save your base for last. You'll thank me later because you won't have fallout and issues to deal with after the fact. Same brush. I'm going to go back to this palette one more time. I'm going to finally dip into this deepest brown. This is a beautiful, truly neutral matte brown shade. This is so pretty. But what we're going to do is just run a little bit along the top lash line, just in the outer quarter. Back to eyeliner. Let's go back to chocolate brown. I actually do want to add a bit more to the bottom. Okay, that one's good. This one needs a little more. There we go. Okay, we're going to move on to mascara. You know, for this kind of look, I don't feel like lashes, they really have a place. I don't think they really need to be present, but a good mascara is going to do wonders. I found my Persona black mascara. I thought I had lost it, but I have had two open apparently that I had misplaced. I've been doing that a lot lately too with like lipsticks. I've been, I had to hunt down these VLFR bee soup balms. I had no idea where I put them. They were in a random makeup bag filled with random stuff. So same with the Persona mascara. So anyway, happy to have found this again. This is the black one and this is a volumizing tubing mascara. So this in theory is going to give me a lot of what I would need from falsies without taking over the look. And I think it's really important to call that out. So you're like, I'm not trying to take over this entire eye makeup look with thick dramatic lashes. I still want to see all the layers of depth that we created and not cover it with lashes. You know, sometimes lashes could be a band-aid for, you know, not perfect eyeshadow look, or maybe an eyeshadow look that you're just not that happy with. You put lashes on and all of a sudden like you put that band-aid on and you're feeling good again. I don't want to do that with this kind of eye makeup look. I want to really see the details and like the subtle nuances of the different brown tones. So just mascara, but we'll do a good amount and black mascara over brown because the brown will just get washed out. Okay, love. Any more here though? And honestly, for reference, since I've referenced her so many times, like for you to actually have a visible reference, um, this video is still in a cup. I'm going to pop on the screen a couple of images of Monica Blue, just in case you don't know who I'm talking about. This will give you a better idea of the makeup and her overall like makeup aesthetic and her vibe. So I'll pop one or two somewhere up here and I say I am, but Mitch is going to pop them up right here or here. So take a screen grab too. Take a screenshot if you're watching on your phone and that will help you too, just to kind of reference this makeup look even more if you're doing it on yourself and you're practicing it, but also save it. So, okay, we're going to, we're going to move on and I'm going to grab this last dirty makeup wipe that I have right here. It's going to clean up this little corner. Not too much, not trying to sharpen it too much, just trying to clean up a touch. I want to do a little bit of underglow, just a little bit. I've been so hooked on this product from Typology. This is the Illuminating Concentrate. It's a glow drop and this is a really beautiful product, whether you're mixing it to foundation or you're putting it on your decollete, your shoulders, but I like to just put this on the apple of my cheek prior to foundation, just for like a nice glow from within look. Another thing I want to note too, we're not going to really go, I don't feel like going like super duper heavy on the bronzer or and or contour. I just don't feel like it's the same idea as like too much blush for this kind of makeup look, just doesn't really have the place, there's no place for it. So we're going to do a little bit of sculpting, but not going for an overly bronze look because I don't want this to look like a bronze goddess. I want this to be more truly like an iconic kind of wearable, flattering look for brunettes with brown eyes. So with that said, I'm pulling back out one of my summer stay pulls. It's from the drugstore. You got to give it a really good shake. This has been sitting on my counter for a couple weeks, for a minute, so give it a good shake. This is the Maybelline Superstay 24-Hour Skin Tint. I have the shade 220. I want to use this as our foundation and I am almost out of this. Let's do a couple droppers on my palette. Let's grab a relatively clean brush. I'm going to use the front side of my N17. Start in the center, work my way out. I just love this eye makeup look so much. Every time I wear an eye makeup look like this or I do an eye makeup look like this for my client, it's just, you can't go wrong. You just cannot go wrong. If you have brown eyes and if you're a brunette and you haven't done just an all brown eye makeup look like this, you are so missing out and you'll be hooked. Brown eye makeup with brown eyes is not boring. It is an iconic way to wear eye makeup. Getting this nice and all over. The great thing about this foundation too is it's pretty much entirely self-setting and it's extremely long-wearing. It's extremely affordable. I've been loving this for a million years at this point, but had to bring it back for summer. It's one of my summer go-to's. A little on the forehead, just buffing it in. I told you, we're really not going to overcomplicate this makeup look because it should not feel overly made up on the skin. Alright, I think we're in a good spot to move on from the blending. Now, I'm going to do a little bit of sculpting like I mentioned, just not overly bronze it and I want to go neutral so it doesn't look overly warm and too summery. I want this to feel more timeless and less seasonal. For that reason, I'm going to grab the MPH, if I can open it. The MPH Under Pinky Palette in the shade Light and another dirty N16. I really need washable brushes. I will do it tonight. I swear I will do it tonight. Okay, just doing a little dry cleaning action, wiping off any excess product. I'm going to dip primarily into this neutral brown and a little bit into the warm one, but primarily to here. Let's just do a little forehead minimizing, a little sculpt on the nose, but I mean just a little bit, just something. Don't worry, we'll blend that in and a little bit of chiseling. Maybe a little bit here too. Okay, gonna grab the N18. Let's blend this out, pushing it in. So now we got some more chisel to our cheekbones, which is great. It's not overly bronze, it's just giving some slight chisel. Tapping it in, tapping it in. My forehead is very boxy, so I always like to like kind of cut it in a little bit with whatever's left over and then I need to contour my lips too. This is an absolute must, absolute must. If I have the MPH palette out, I just need to use it for this step because it's just, it's really a perfect product for this step. So I'm gonna grab another N22. Dipping in the same two colors, but again keeping it primarily with the cool one. I'm so excited to show you the lip combo and honestly, there's another lip combo too that I was debating using either between this one and the one that I do plan on wearing. So if you want another version of this, like maybe slightly tweaked, maybe another variation of like kind of like how to maximize your brunette hair and your brown eyes, please, please request it below. Let me know and I would be so happy to do many more of these. Maybe we could do one with purple eyeshadow, blue eyeshadow, and like the actual complementary colors that bring out brown eyes. We could definitely do something like that too. Okay, this is blended on. We need to do some concealer and blush. And I think I'll do concealer first. This is Maxine's Revenge French Face in Light Peach. Now another thing too, again just kind of going back to like Monica Bellucci just once more because it's the easiest reference. Do not overly conceal under your eyes. Don't overly perfect it. We want to feel more like lived in. Once again, more naturally occurring. So I'm gonna avoid all of this and I'm gonna make sure I blend this downward and not upward where it kind of suffocates the eye makeup. We want to make this sultry, kind of red, kind of um kind of almost grungy in a way, like right here and not over perfect it. So you can very easily get to over perfecting, Bill. Let's do a little lift because I could use it. So right here, going up, a little lift here, a little here because it's so dark in this area, just a little here and there. And if we need more definition, we could do just a touch. Okay, placement looks good. Let me grab an N14 brush. I do wish I had a clean N22s, but I definitely don't. So we're gonna use the N14. Tap this in. I'm not trying to maximize the coverage, so you'll notice that I'm not letting this fully dry down like I typically do for all the reasons that I just stated. Not trying to overly perfect this and overly perfect our skin, so therefore we don't need that maximum amount of coverage out of this concealer. We kind of like move it in, blend it into our skin, make it become like a little bit more one with our skin and less coveragey on top. I'm gonna set a little spotlight and lift on our forehead, pushing this in. I'm gonna make sure I don't blend upwards. Like it's actually very hard for me to do this, but I'm gonna make sure I don't blend upwards. I'm gonna blend and almost pull it down a little bit, which you never see me drag down my features. I'm always saying blend up, don't drag, you're not painting a wall. So see how we could still see that visible redness all along here? It's not just the eyeshadow, it's also like my skin underneath. That is exactly what you want. Eyes are almost done, or concealer is almost done, I should say. Eyes are definitely done. And let's want to add a little more smokiness to the bottom. I do think we're in actually a pretty perfect spot, to be honest. We've got the lift going, which is great. Great for me because I have very full cheeks. All right, looks good. Time to move on to blush. I'm not gonna do too much, just a little bit. I'm gonna grab an N or actually a 109 from BK Beauty. Tap on, and this is again Blush Please from MAC. Such a great no blush blush color. It's just perfection. So for this and for her makeup look, she's not like lifted up with blush. She's got a barely blush kind of look going on. So it's like there's some bit of colors and in some photos, but there's also primarily not much color at all going on. And again, going back to, I think that her makeup and that style is like the perfect reference to this makeup look that I'm doing right now. So it's like just a little subtle hint of blush, but not overtaking the makeup look and not overly lifted. So I'm gonna do just the actual apples of my cheeks. Crazy, right? I never do that. That was actually a very youthful way to wear your blush too, because it rounds out the ball of your cheek, make it look a little bit more plumped up. This is one of the techniques I use on the client that I mentioned earlier that I use the brown eye makeup technique on. Okay, so just a bit of color, not too much, not too high up. I'm gonna take a bit more and blend this across my nose, giving this more of a worn-in, lived-in vibe. And also removing some of the makeup on my nose is going to make the makeup less obvious on the rest of my face. And again, going back to the idea, naturally, it looks more naturally occurring for brunettes with brown eyes. It feels more like one with those features and less like makeup-y. So not too much blush. I'm gonna stop it here. I'm gonna leave it alone. We're gonna set our makeup, powder our makeup. First powder I'm gonna grab is the Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder in Soft Pink. I'm gonna grab another N14 brush. I'm just gonna take a small amount of this and I'm just gonna hit lower than you typically see. I'm not gonna go all the way up. A little bit here to brighten this area. Oops, a bit too much. A bit here and just a bit here. So the places that we highlighted, we can get away with using this powder because this is a brightening powder. So you wouldn't want to use this all over your complexion because it will literally brighten your entire face. So for that reason, I'm gonna grab the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Powder in shade 2. And let's use the back side of this N17. So just a little mattification right here across the forehead. And a little bit right here, just to smooth right here on my nose. And then my favorite hack, same powder. Powder your lips for longevity and so your lip liner has something to grip to. It's a game changer. Once you do it, you'll never go back. I am gonna grab that 109 one more time. Stay with me. Teen bit more of blush, please. And I just want to hit even more on my nose. I know this may seem like pointless and probably isn't translating that much on camera, but it just really gives it that lived-in look. So adding a bit more, working in layers. I'm just gonna take a bit too right here because we didn't overly bronze. I'm just gonna add healthy color across the forehead. Okay, that feels excellent. That feels right. I love that. Before I move on to lip, I am gonna grab an N20S and just give this a rough blend so it's really worn in, really melted in. And then back to the N22. Layering and just stealing whatever's left over on this brush for a teeny bit more intensity. Still not being overly precise and like overly careful. Nice. Okay, that looks good. I feel so good about this eye makeup. I love the way this looks and translates. It's dimensional. There's different tones and variations in brown, which makes it just an interesting eye makeup look. It's not flat. It's not like we put one brown eyeshadow all over and just call it a day. It's still very interesting and dimensional. For lip, this lip combo, I'm gonna grab Makeup By Mario Tan and a little bit of MPH Tease. Of course, I need to sharpen tan because this lives in my purse. Tan is just one of those amazing, amazing shades for a nude lip combo. Tan is just one of my absolute favorites to holy grail. So I'm gonna line my lips the way I like to and this lip combo is going to be the perfect neutral complement to the eye makeup. It's going to still bring out my lips but not take away the focus of my brown eyes. So we're still essentially maximizing our brown eyes and our dark hair and we're not taking away but our lips are still a good balanced complement to it. So good. I'm gonna round out this cupid's bow like I did up here. Sorry, not the cupid's bow. The pillows are the lips on the bottom. So I'm gonna round this pillowy part and then round this pillowy part. Push it in so it feels more lived in. Just like that. And the lipstick, my god, it's just the perfect lipstick. One of the most perfect shades I've ever seen in my life, honestly. This is Calisone from Violette FR. If you've never tried this one, this is one of my top favorite lipstick colors I've ever worn in my entire life. I love this color so much. This is, this just, it is just one of the most beautiful like 90s style nudes. This is the shade. It's gonna look different on everyone based on your undertone, just FYI, but I do feel like this looks, this should look good on everyone. It's just gonna translate a little different from skin tone to skin tone but on me it's like that perfect neutral enough 90s type nude. That's just so good. I love it. It's a soft matte. It feels very like velvety and cushiony and you know, I'm kind of debating between either adding more enhancement to my lips with either the Tease or Victoria Beckham O5 lip definer. I'm almost feeling like O5's, you know, O5's gonna be better. This is a little too, this might be a little too gray. I don't wanna go overly gray so let's actually do Victoria Beckham instead. I'll have this one linked, not the MPH, just FYI, unless we hate it. We'll find out right now. I don't hate it but I also don't love it so you know what? I'm a liar. We're not gonna link this one. Stay with me. This is a process but we're almost done. That was slipping too much. Let me actually grab what I originally was going to do which is Tease so let's just see. Okay, yeah, that's better. Mm-hmm. All right, I should have stuck to my original plan. Trust your gut. Push this in. Blur it a bit. All right, my friends, this is the makeup look. This is the makeup look that I desperately want you to try if you are a brunette with brown eyes or if you just want to try this makeup look out. It's a perfect monochromatic makeup look for whatever your hair color or whatever your eye color is. You could still use this, absolutely, but this is one of my favorite looks, period, point blank, for brunette with brown eyes. So comment below if you do try it out. I would love to hear your thoughts. I would like to hear how it went. I would like to hear the products you use. It does not have to be any of these products you use where you have at home. That is my dog. Try it and let me know what you think, but this is the look that always makes me feel so confident and so pretty and just so flattered. So it's not overly done. It's not overly perfected. It's sultry. It's giving all the vibes and I am obsessed with it. I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you enjoyed this uncut and also just seeing the entire process as chaotic as it might be. It's there for you to reference and to see exactly what it takes, blending-wise, to get this kind of makeup look. So hopefully you enjoyed it and I will see you in the next one. Bye guys.
