trendshock: blue eyeliner
I'm not sure if it's that first whisper of fresh spring air or that extra hour of glorious sunlight, but I'm totally feeling the blue eyeliner vibe lately. Or maybe it was seeing all those brilliant flashes of color on the spring runways, like this blue eye at Narciso Rodriguez; either way, blue liner is just so unexpected and much more flattering than boring old black.
And while it had a very 80s-ish feel at Narciso – (swiped all over the eye and paired with those pink lips, it brought me back to grade 8 and my experiments with Wet n' Wild...) – done subtly, blue eyeliner doesn't have to seem gaudy or overdone. A light flick or winged line on the top lid paired with a nearly naked eye looks fresh and modern. Or for evening, do a full-on blue smokey eye. One liner shade I'm coveting? MAC's Eye Pencil in Indigo – a slightly greeny-blue (the top pencil in the pic at right).
