And truly, anyone-even makeup newbs-can pull off one of these hues. Suddenly, the rest of my makeup looked purposeful and fresh, not sloppily drawn on at 7 in the morning, and even my crappy threadbare T-shirt and skirt morphed into a high-low lewk when paired with electric-blue wings.Īnd that’s kinda the power of a bright, bold, colorful eyeliner: It makes you look like you have your shit together, even in the middle of a swampy, 100-degree summer when you’ve sweat through your clothes and hair and patience.
cool-like, just-got-my-ears-pierced, wearing-Limited-Too-on-my-birthday cool. Not only did I get a dozen compliments (#Vanity, whattup), but every time I looked in the mirror that day, I also felt. Then last month, I tested out a bright-blue eyeliner that rolled across my desk, drawing on the tiniest of tiny cat eyes before work.
Raise your hand if you’ve ever seen a pic of someone wearing a bright-blue cat eye, said “Wow, that’s so pretty,” then promptly bought the same brown eyeliner you’ve been wearing since high school.
