Metallic Eyeliner

Metallic eyeliner was a separate trend that existed during the 1st decade of the ‘70s and ‘80s, when bold, shimmering makeup looks reigned on the fashion scene. Inspired by disco culture and theatre acts, beauty brands started producing eyeliners that were made with reflective pigments in order to catch the light and enhance the drama of eye makeup looks. 

Over the years, the formulas themselves were improved providing easier application and longer wear. In the 2000s, metallic eyeliner made another comeback, this time in both the fashion runways and streets, hailed as an expression tool that blended art with the beauty daily protocols.

Shades and Application

Today, metallic eyeliner is treasured for its ability to instantly transform a look. With shades that vary from classic silver and gold to vibrant blues, greens and purples, it makes intriguing accents that sparkle the eyes. The type of metallic eyeliner used will depend on what effect you are looking for with the product, with liquid liners offering precision bold lines while pencil/gel versions of metallic liner are ideal for smudge and softer metallic finishes. 

Metallic eyeliner looks its finest against neutral eye shadows, to make it stand out but it can also be played with for an avant-garde or festive look by mixing it up with glitter or bold palettes. It is good for experiments during the day and adding glamour at night, thus it can be the all-rounder addition to any makeup.
