Eye pigments are never universal for all skin tones. Women of color can’t wear the same colors lighter skin women can and produce the same effect, mainly because most browns match their skin tone and render application futile. For the girls with a little more melanin and want a smoked eye effect, here’re a handful of shades that’ll give you some serious dimension, really deepen up the crease, or allow you use shadow for winged liner look.
