Brighten up brown eyeshadows with bold metallics

Rich brown hues are an easy way to add sultry drama to any look. Mix those browns with bold, bright metallics and you have an attention-grabbing look for a dinner date, night out with the girls or party. This look can be toned down to create an easy daytime or work look. Pair it with false lashes and you amp up the sultry vibe.
Most palettes of brown and neutral colors have a metallic but try a liquid eye color for a solid, long-lasting base for this look. Try different tones to find which looks best with your eye color and complexion. Pair this with a nude lip to keep attention on your eyes.
