Go Wide: Colorful Brush Strokes Are Kicking Basic Cat Eyes to the Curb

Winnie Harlow for the Win

The wide-eye slick is a great way to go completely crease-free. Just use some primer, especially if you're using a powdery eyeshadow. And blend your edges if you don't want a pointed flick.

It's a Match

The matching mascara hack is a great spring look. Just pick the same shade of liner, shadow and mascara and you can even add some subtle shimmer.

Go Neon

This is the perfect chance to add more than one color to your palette. Plus, neon colors hide creases really well. Just make sure you keep things consistent.

The Whole Package

Wide eyeliner and shadow can cover your entire eye makeup look. This flawless look features a dazzling metallic shadow and a toned-down shade in the same spectrum.

Eye-Catching Brights

This is the most attention-grabbing street style makeup look we've come across this year. So if you want to push the envelope, do it right. Lining your lower lid doesn't always work, especially with darker colors. But you can take a chance with fun neon options.

The New Smoky Eye

Achieving a full-lid metallic look is almost an art. When it comes to smoky eyes, choose one shimmery liquid glitter shadow and a slightly darker liner for the accents around the edges. Also, don't forget your mascara for this one.

Eyes Be Poppin'

For drama, go all out with metallic liquid shadow. Solid, jewel-toned colors work great here and you can always mix and match.

Eyeliner is pretty versatile on and off the runway, from cat eyes to open winged liner to the more creative double flick. Basically, we’ve seen and done it all. But a dramatic and superbly Instagrammable lining technique is on the rise. We’re talking about the wide eye color slick.

It’s just a dash of color on your eyelids, blended well into your eyeshadow of choice. You can use a gel liner, a metallic liquid liner or even a dusted powder with a brush. The technique doesn’t involve crafty wings or pointed edges, it’s really just about the color, making it a spring favorite.

Priming your eyes is a must for this look since flaky or patchy colors can be kind of embarrassing. Go for a smoothing primer and a clear gel eyeshadow base before you get adventurous with hues. Also, broad lining is really about focusing on one color palette so don’t introduce too many accents.
