What color of eye shadow goes good with really dark brown eyes?

My eyes are really dark brown, almost black and I can't seem to find a color that goes good. I've gone to a professional, but I don't really think it looks good. Any suggestions?What color of eye shadow goes good with really dark brown eyes?
purples are wonderful for brown eyes. but you can wear pretty much any color you want and look amazing. plum and other shades of purple bring out brown the best, thoughWhat color of eye shadow goes good with really dark brown eyes?
Dark eyes mean you can wear just about any colour you like - consider yourself very lucky.


The best colours are ones that are not too bright, glittery or shiny - they would look fake and tacky in contrast to the dark eyes.





If you wear clothes that are mostly black, navy, blue, or pink, go with a smoky amethyst (kind of a dark mid-purple).


If you tend to wear clothes in the brown, red, orange, or green tones then a soft sage or avocado green is nice.





Brush the shadow into the crease from inner corner to just past the outside corner, bringing it up a little above the eye so the colour shows when your eyes are open.


Then with a liner brush and a darker shade of the same colour, or mix some black eyeshadow powder with the colour and line the upper and lower lids (I really hate hard eyeliner pencils, the look is so 1950's).





For highlighting the brow, a soft glimmer pink or gold is always nice, just don't overdo it.
This is what seventeen magazine said about the best eyeshadow for brown eyes:


Try rich neutrals like soft beige, cocoa brown, and plummy brown--these pick up the flecks of bronze in your eyes.


They also say to try:

WHITE OR A SPARKLEY BAIGE OR ESPRESSO TYPE WHITE MAKES YOUR EYES GLOW THE OTHER TWO MAKE YOUR EYES STAND OUT JUST NOT AS MUCH
Gold is really a good one. And try some purple too.
dark brown!! just try it it looks gorgous!
I also have dark eyes and find that olives blended with mauves and dark beiges are quite good
purple or bronzish color. :)
purple and grey will make them pop
Gold and Bronze, they will make ur deep browns glow!
I think metallic shades look good - gold, bronze silver also natural looking shades. Also try a green - it's such a cool colour.
What is your skin tone? I have olive skin and brown eyes. I usually wear a medium brown on the lids and a pale pink or champagne color under the brow.
Blue or green. Any color actually. :P Make your lashes long and add some sparkle maybe that will bring them out more. :)
Smokey grey.
golds and pinks would look good i think
gold, bronze, pale green, and lavendar.





When you do the green or lavendar, don't overdo it. Just a bit on your eyelids are sufficient. You can put the gold/bronze in the creasr of your eye and carry it up. People with dark eyes tend to have small-looking eyes, too... so make sure you highlight your eyebrows with a light, reflective shadow under the brow.





Good luck, I hope this works for you!
Shades of deep blue, plum, and gray will all make your eyes pop. Good luck.
