They create a contrast with the green pigment of the eyes, making the eyes appear brighter and more vibrant. For example, you can use burgundy eyeshadow for going out, and sparkling brown or brown-gray for the day. Try the following colors:

Clothes can visually affect the color scheme of the eyes. Gray eyes will appear blue if there is blue in clothing items. A wardrobe of green and lilac colors will help those with dull green eyes make them brighter and more saturated.
Women can highlight or change their eye color using cosmetics. Thus, by outlining light eyes with eyeliner of a certain range, you can achieve a deeper, darker shade. For example, if your eye color is a mixture of blue and gray, applying gray eyeshadow or eyeliner will make your eyes appear bluer, while using blue eyeshadow will make your eyes appear grayer.
The color of the iris can change without lenses and various techniques, depending on the intensity of lighting. Light eyes change color especially well.
Regardless of a person’s wishes, the iris changes its shade with age. Newborns' eyes are darker and brighter, but as they get older they become lighter and duller.
There are cases when eye color changes due to illness. The iris may turn pale or, on the contrary, become darker. With certain inflammatory processes, the color of only one eye may change, which is called heterochromia.

A Californian scientist has developed a unique method for laser eye color correction. Its beam is able to remove excess pigments that make up the iris, and thereby change brown eyes to blue.
