Fall's Best Colorful Eye Makeup

Forget your basic black and brown—this fall, it’s all about colorful eye makeup.

From gold liner to green mascara, these hues frame your eyes while adding a hint of glamour.

Here’s how to find the most flattering shade for your pretty peepers!

Perfect Plum
Purple mascara may seem a little intimidating, but if you choose the right shade, you'll look sweetly sophisticated. A rich plum hue looks fab paired with a chocolate brown liner. Sweep on a berry shadow for a cute date look.

Emerald City
Your BFFs will turn green with envy when they catch a glimpse of your jewel-toned lashes. Deep kelly makes all eye colors sparkle, too. Dazzles with shimmery shadows and silver liners. What a gem!

Can’t let go of your black mascara? Amp it up with a bold, metallic liner. Green, purple, blue and gold are our faves this season. Line just the inner rim of the eye to get that hint of glam, or line the outside of your lash line to get full-on fab eyes.

Cheap Trick

We are totally lovin’ these metallic shades and, bonus!, each one is under $3. These liners are gel-based so they glide on easily. Try them with smoky shadow.

Go For The Gold
A touch of gold liner added to the inner corners of your eyes adds some shimmer to everyday makeup. Plus, it looks great on any eye color. Having a night out with your BFFs? Glide gold eyeliner on your lower lids before sweeping black or brown mascara on your lower lashes.
