NEGATIVE SPACE
THE BEST AND MOST ORIGINAL EYE MAKEUP LOOKS TO TRY THIS PARTY SEASON
NEGATIVE space is the edgier sister to winged eyeliner – think of it as an incomplete version of the classic. It’s great for adding flair to a neutral look to turn it eveningappropriate, and you’ll want to use a felt tip liner so you can have total control over the shape. You should set with powder once you’re happy to avoid smudging over time. So far it’s been mostly prominent on catwalks, but we can all inject a little Gigi Hadid into our look if we put our minds to it.

BLUSH | WINTER 2021 27 Neon BrightFOR those with bold personalities, neon liner is a statement that allows you to get creative and express yourself, which is a huge focus in the beauty industry right now. Even a simple wing will have your eyes popping, and you’ll never go back to black, so long as our favourite celebrities keep championing this look. To keep it elevated and avoid looking messy, opt for colours that work against your skin tone. Olive skin pairs well with green and baby blue shades, darker skin is perfect for electric blues and bright yellows, and fair skin is great for red. The 80s just got seriously chic.

Go-Glitter STARDUST shadow is the glitter explosion trend that is great for dipping your toe into experimental looks without going *too* full-on. Especially during the winter months, overdoing it with glitter is actively encouraged and you don’t need any technical skills to make it look good – the messier the better! Try using an eyeshadow primer with a high-sparkle pigment to achieve this look and set it in place for the night.

Wingin’ it W INGED liner is a staple for any beauty lover, but achieving two, equal sides can be a real challenge for even the best in the business. Try to angle the wing in-line with the end of your eyebrow and create the perfect outline before filling in any gaps afterwards. It’ll make fixing any mistakes much easier! For a festive touch, try replacing your black liner with a glitterbased one, or layer over the top of your favourite eyeshadow sparkle.
