I don't like wearing eye liner and hardly wear mascara.
Do you have any tips on enhancing brown eyes without using a large amount of mascara/eye liner?

I think running blue, purple, or green eye shadow along your lower lash line will enhance your brown eyes. If you want something a bit more subtle and natural apply a light slightly shimmery gold in the inner corner of your eyes. If you want something more daring apply brighter colors in the inner corner as well like this http://zoffe.blogspot.com/2010/04/tutorial-another-mac-dye-tribe-trend.html

If you do decide to use mascara, use color on the lower lashes such as a wine color to help them pop. I have blue eyes and use violet and blue mascara for this. I also use eyeshadow as my eyeliners both on the lower and upper lash lines. Use a high pigmented eyeshadow with a coarse eye shadow brush if you use a dry eyeshadow. If you decide to use eyeshadow where you add water get a softer hair eyeliner brush, just use a high pigmented shadow to help your eyes pop:)

This is a look I did that's less dramatic, but sort of shows you what I'm talking about in terms of shading. I always line my eyes (lined the lower and upper waterline in this look), but you don't have to. I have hazel eyes, but I don't think that makes a huge difference. Excuse the slight spider lashes, I was trying out a new mascara (which I hated) for a week when I did this EOTD!

I would tight line your upper lash line with a dark eyeliner (brown or black) that'll make your lashes look thicker without mascara. And you could curl them. Them maybe some sort of color on the lower lash line. :)

Dont feel that you need to use eyeliner or mascara at all. I hardly use either of those. Purple is your best friend if your eyes are brown. So deep purples, lilacs, pinks things like that. When you dont feel like using those colors all over you could do something like smudge a purple close to your lash line(s) or you could put a light pinky purple on your lid. Just play around with it.

I curled them today AND tried the purple eye shadow. I loved how it looked. Thank you sooo much. :D
