TikTok Eyeliner Trends To Keep An Eye On

Eyeliner is the most versatile and enduring form of self-expression through makeup. Think about it, when is eyeliner ever not trendy? From the Egyptians, who intricately framed their eyes with kohl daily to enhance their beauty, to the Flappers of the 20s, who liberally smudged eyeshadow and eyeliner on for a dramatic look to match their scandalous dresses. And even now, from a classic cat-eye to a statement graphic liner moment, its momentum hasn’t yet slowed.

Eyeliner is constantly evolving and pushing creative bounds as it goes. It’s only right that we continue this long-lasting tradition and keep finding ways to incorporate it into our own styles. The TikTok makeup community is a great source of inspiration for new, daring and playful ways to do eyeliner. Here are some ideas to get you started:

The Classic Wing, With a Twist

We all know and love the classic black winged liner. It’s easy, it’s fast, it’s the perfect finishing touch to any look. Well, here’s a twist that is hard to resist. You can make the liner the entire eye look by drawing a wing big enough to cover the eyelid. Begin with a dark shadow for the base, go over the edges with liner, and finish up with a little bit of glitter. As easy as one, two, three.

 

The “Twiggy” Look

Rampant during the 60s, the look first popularized by Twiggy has come back strong. This look is all about the lines that best complement the shape of your eyes. If you’re feeling up for it, add a pop of colorful shadow underneath for an even louder statement.

 

Graphic Liner

The fun of graphic liner is the freedom to be creative with it. A distinctly abstract approach to the eyeliner trend, it allows for so many ways to craft a unique look with just some colorful liner. Take inspo from these looks and get to drawing some lines.

 

Fly as a Butterfly

Look fly with the cutest eye trend: butterfly wings. A decidedly more elaborate alternative to a winged liner, it is definitely worth the time you’ll put into trying out this look.

 

Doodle Away!

When all else fails, and you are in need of a simple yet fun look to add to your everyday makeup, why not wing it? A flower here, some cherries there— you can’t go wrong with a carefree doodle.

After all, the eyes truly are the windows to the soul. So, feel free to go all out with your eyeliner and frame those windows just right!
