Gone are the days of—dare I say it—classic black eyeliner looks. Well, at least for this season. Enter the era of the playful, colourful and bold eyeliner looks, where more is definitely more. Whether it’s down to the mask-wearing from the past couple of years, the summer vibes or the hyper-focus on Euphoria eye makeup, which really put bold eye looks on the map, we’re all about it. Just this year, Google UK received half a million searches per month for eyeliner alone, an increase of 14% versus last year.
The good thing is you’ve already got the skills down. Apply the same techniques you would for your classic liner to create an array of flicks and lines and let your creativity bloom. While classic black liner is all about technique and precision, colour eyeliner looks give way to being a lot less precise and more playful with your look. In this realm of eyeliner looks, there is no such thing as a mistake; it’s all part of the end result.
Using colour on the eyes is an easy way to inject some fun into your look and really play around with makeup. As well as refreshing and adding an electric twist to your look, colour tends to be a mood booster. The beauty industry, from high-end to high-street, has embraced the trend with an entire rainbow of bright liners for you to play around with.
Before you exist, faster than I can say colourful eyeliner, hold on, while daring and eccentric creative looks are part of the fun, there is something for everyone. From delicately lining the inner corner of your eyes to elaborate triple-tone eyeliner, we’ve found the 11 most delightfully striking eyeliner looks you’ll want to re-create this summer.
