Bug or Intended: No Eye-Auras for Beast Heads.

For eye auras to work on beast heads they'll have to create entirely new eye auras that match up to where the eyes are on the beast heads.
WAI. I seem to recall finding I could drop an eye aura or two (might have been the beastly set, not sure now) on a beast-head, but they actually feel somewhere just below the eyes, so it looked bad, so I didn't take it.
Tis a sad, sad thing indeed. 
Yeah, eye auras don't line up right. You'd end up with glowing cheeks, most likely.
There was (is?) a glitch with the Think Tank that MAY work with beast heads.
-Choose a normal head.
-Select the aura you want.
-Switch back to the Think Tank.
The system doesn't notice that you've got an invalid combination, and lets it stay. If you even click on the Aura button, it will realize that it's a bad combo, and change the aura, but if you stay out of that category, you can change anything else.
It's been a long time since I've done this, so I don't know if it's still possible. I'm pretty sure it is technically a bug, and will get fixed eventually (if it isn't already).
I've never tried this with Beast heads. It may work, it may never have worked. I really don't know.

Actually I was playing in the costume creator last night pressing the random button. 1 of the memorable combos was with a think tank and battle fury aura. Battle fury was both hands and head. At times the think tank was hard to distinguish.
It's not how many times you get knocked down that count. It's how many times you get up.
Sorry if I was unclear. I wasn't saying that Think Tank blocks ALL auras, just the eye ones. I think that "Head" auras that include an eye glow are either also excluded, or have the eye glow removed. I'm not sure, and not at a computer, so I can't check.
It's been known for a while that mixing a properly colored Think Tank with certain head auras makes it appear like your character is headless, and yes, that is a rather cool effect. Also cool that you found it with the random button; the odds of that aren't very high.
@Roderick
You can get the eye auras on the think tank head by making the last thing you do choosing the eye aura you want on an allowed head and then switching the head to Think Tank.
You can't do it the other way round.
I just wanted to ask if this is a bug or intended. Were the Beast heads (Big Cat, Wolf, Bird and Minotaur) supposed to allow the eye aura or not? I wanted a glowy-eyed catfolk, but noooo what the heck?
