Most of us consider black eyeliner a makeup bag essential— but there’s another staple we’ve been swearing by: brown eyeliner. Black liner may deliver the drama, but brown liner’s superpower is its versatility, explains makeup artist Noel McKinnon. “Unlike its bold black counterpart, which can sometimes appear harsh, especially on lighter skin tones, brown eyeliner offers a softer, more natural look.”

Making the switch can be a little jarring if black is your go-to, but you may love the toned-down look. “The subtlety of brown can enhance the eyes without overwhelming them, allowing for a more balanced overall appearance,” McKinnon says. So, how do you find your holy-grail brown eyeliner? We’ve rounded up 12 of the best for every vibe and budget with help from McKinnon.

Once applied, it resists smudging and fading throughout the day,” she says. The shade of brown is also really versatile, McKinnon adds. “A perfect option for various looks, from natural daytime appearances to dramatic evening styles.”
