Eyeliner

If you’re typically just a black or brown eyeliner girl and don’t really want to branch out into eye shadow any time in the near future, you can still add a little interest to your look. Browse the drugstores and department store makeup counters for dark liners that offer a hint of metallic color. MAC’s Buried Treasure Powerpoint Eye Pencil is a dark brown-black with gold. If you smudge it, the gold becomes more obvious.

Feeling a little bolder? Branch out from those brown and black pencils and go for other deep shades. Sapphire, plum, and hunter green all look amazing next to dark eyes. Urban Decay’s 1999 24/7 Glide On Pencil is described as a “plum with teeny gold shimmer” on their website.

Want a slightly lower priced alternative for your frivolous colors so you can try out a few without breaking the bank? Drugstore lines like Cover Girl carry beautiful blackened jewel tone colored liners, as well. Cover Girl’s Perfect Point Plus liner in Midnight Blue makes dark eyes dazzle. Another alternative is Revlon’s new line of Bedroom Eyes Powder Liner. These are great for a smoky eye look, and a simple as swiping on liner thanks to the sponge tip applicator.
