This Bold Eyeliner Trend Will Make Your Eye Color POP
Here at Brit + Co, we are firm believers in incorporating bright, bold colors into every aspect of our lives, and our beauty products are no exception. Between glitter root hairstyles and color-block nail art, our makeup routine is basically Rainbow Brite meets Lisa Frank. Even if you lean toward the minimalistic when it comes to your beauty look, going bold can be a fun way to switch things up for a special event, or any night when you want all eyes on y-o-u. Enter this color-block makeup hack you need to try ASAP: two contrasting bright hues swooped across your lids. Whether you rock a perfect-point pink wing over an aquamarine shade or a yellow cut-crease with a blue cat eye, this not-so-ordinary style will make your eyes pop fo sho. Scroll through these bold AF looks to find the perfect shades for your pretty peepers.
1. Peachy Blue: Leave your boring black liner at home and rock this sky-blue shade instead. Add a warm peachy hue for an ’80s-inspired combo and you’ll be turning heads all summer long.
2. Pixie Dust: Whether you believe in magic or not, this pastel hue combo is perfect for your inner fairy spirit. Kick it up a notch by adding a hint of glitter to the outer corners of your eyes for an extra textured effect.

3. Bumblebee: Channel a pop art style by recreating this black and yellow look. Use a white liner as your base, then trace over it with yellow to make the color really pop. Outline with black, and your makeup routine has weekend vibes written all over it.
