Ever wondered how to rock neon, jewel-encrusted or just generally dramatic eyeliner? The key is simple: Go light on everything else. If you pair a bright lip or pigmented blush with intense liner, you’re bound to look tacky. But we know a few celebs who definitely got this trend right.
We’re not sure which beauty look is our favorite. The colors? The gems? The intricate geometric designs? Different looks lend themselves to different occasions, so it’s hard to say. But one thing we do know is that we want to try them all. So, our recommendation for you: Go all out on the eyeliner. Just ensure that your foundation, brows and lips look very natural so the focus is on your eyes.
If you need some inspo to get the ball rolling, look ahead — the following celebs are crushing 2018’s biggest makeup trend. And luckily, a lot of their beats are easily copied. The hardest part will be picking your fave.

This modern geometric wing is sure to stand out against a classic black-and-white outfit.
Amandla Stenberg
Yellow is arguably the color of the year, and it totally pops against Stenberg's dark lashes.
Joan Smalls
An unexpected pop of turquoise against a monochromatic outfit elevates your beauty look in a sleek, sophisticated way.
Katherine Langford
Langford keeps her look youthful yet striking with a bold cobalt liner.
Lupita Nyong’o
This isn't the first time Nyong'o has experimented with gems, and we love them even more when they're accompanied by neon eyeliner. Her look is both whimsical and playful.
Madeline Brewer
Brewer's unusual choice of lime-green eyeliner catches the eye and coordinates with the yellow accents on her otherwise dark ensemble.
Margot Robbie
White liner really makes Robbie's eyes pop and coordinates perfectly with her white sequins.
Martha Hunt
If StyleCaster were an eyeliner, we would be this one.
Winnie Harlow
This color looks beyond gorg on Harlow, who paired it with minimal makeup in order to truly let the lavender shine.
Yara Shahidi
Yellow eyeliner once again takes center stage on actor Yara Shahidi.
Rihanna
White seems to be extremely effective at drawing attention to the eyes — we expect to see more of this color in future celebrity makeup looks.
Chiara Ferragni
This dramatic color-block wing is intense, but the flat hue really makes the fashion blogger's eyes sparkle.
Anne Winters
Winters has studied up on her trends. Hello, yellow!
Gigi Hadid
Cobalt is striking against Hadid's soft, glowy complexion. Keeping the rest of her face natural really accentuates the severity of the color and wing.
Kristen Stewart
White eyeliner may be the only thing that competes with yellow this summer — it really captures attention.
