Lifting the lid: eyeliners are brightening up | Eva Wiseman

At Missoni, graphic swooshes of colour above the eyes were mixed in shades of the rainbow; big blocks visible from the other side of the room. For a prettier (though no less bold) adjustment, try a fine line of bright eyeliner rather than a stamped-on block. Work up from an easy purple to blue or green – and, when you’re ready, go for a nice emotional pink. Trust us.
