Ok really random, but are my eyes hazel or brown? Excuse my terrible lashes. Filling out a form and apparently the difference is significant, so I need to get it right lol

Look brown from that.

ScottyDoesntKnow · 15/02/2024 16:24

They look brown to me, hazel usually have more than one colour going on. Like green with a light brown ring etc.

Brown

Hard to tell, need the light to be shining on them. Don't excuse your natural lashes, you look lovely.

TheNoodlesIncident · 15/02/2024 16:26

Brown, I can't see any green in them.

(Isn't it surprisingly difficult to get a sharp photo of your eyes?!)

ImCamembertTheBigCheese · 15/02/2024 16:27

Brown

OneTC · 15/02/2024 16:27

Picture needs more light/less reflection

MixingPlaydough · 15/02/2024 16:28

Brown. Hazel normally has more colours in it and is lighter.

FuglySweaty · 15/02/2024 16:35

Brown

BrokenBonesStixStones · 15/02/2024 16:36

Oh wow it so hard to get a good clear pic 😅 here is one in outside light that I think reflects more accurately. My whole life I thought they were brown but a few people have commented on my “green” eyes. So I thought it might mean they were actually hazel.

Hello @BrokenBonesStixStones

I'm not sure if this helps you for comparison purposes - my optician friend says that I've got hazel eyes.

Brown. There’s no green at all.

They're quite clearly grey

I can see why people would say hazel, do they look quite golden in brighter lights?

Ithinkitstimeforbed · 15/02/2024 16:44

I only see brown- I think hazel looks more dark green with a brown ring In the middle

Yeah, they look quite gold/yellow at times.

Might help you decide if you google it OP. Or it might confuse you even more.

I've just googled 'what colour are hazel eyes' and if it's right I would say your eyes are more brown that hazel.

nighttimeforgenerals88 · 15/02/2024 16:51

I'd say yours are brown

darisdet · 15/02/2024 16:53

brown

UsefulUsername · 15/02/2024 16:55

OP’s eyes - brown

Goldierocks’s eyes - not Hazel!! More bluey/grey
