A Pop of Color To Your Everyday Eye Look

Hey everyone! A great (and waterproof!) way to spice up any eye look is to use a flash of aqua blue in your everyday summer eye look! The brightening effect gives an intensity and pop that is complementary to every eye color. It looks BEAUTIFUL on tan skin and can deepen any paler skin tone as well. Using a bright blue liquid liner with some jet black voluminous mascara is an easy and simple way to dress up your eyes in a summery fashion. If pencil liner is your thing, create a soft smokey eye with dark browns and then add the aqua pop to your lower lash line! There are plenty of options on how to incorporate this bright blue into your summer beauty. Down below are products that are perfect for the ultimate aqua eye.

Cream Eyeshadow
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencil in "Clash"
Price: $20
Link: Sephora


This crease-proof AND water-proof eyeshadow is awesome for summer! The creamy consistency makes it easy to blend with your fingers, so no brushes needed! It can also be used for your waterline.

Create The Look
Smudge the product all over your eye lid and blend into crease. Use a jet black liquid eyeliner to create a thin wing for a cat eye appearance! Only trace the outer third of your eye so that the attention is not taken away from the bright blue shadow! Pale pink cheeks softens the look with a pretty glow. Tarte's Cheek Stain in "Doll Face" ($30) is the perfect product! I used a cream blush because of the glowing effect it gives. Nothing on lips except some chap stick with SPF!



Liquid Liner
Milani INFINITE Liquid Eye Liner in "Electric Blue"
Price: $7
Link: Milani 
Honestly, these liquid liners are insanely pigmented! I was shocked at the consistency. The price is affordable and the product is easy to find! It is waterproof so it is awesome for summer! The color is so bright and beautiful that you barely need anything else to add to your eyes. Love this!

Create The Look
No eyeshadow needed! Trace a thick line across your whole upper lash line. Create a slight "flick" to emphasize the shape of your eyes. Apply a voluminous mascara to your upper and lower lash line.  Lancome's Hypnose Drama Mascara in "Excessive Black" ($25) gives extreme full-body lashes! Apply a shimmery bronzer on the apples of your cheeks and around your temples to bring a attention to your eyes and create a glow on your face. Too Faced Caribbean In a Compact in "Sun Bunny" is awesome! ($28)




Multi-use product
Make Up For Ever Aqua cream in "21 Turquoise" 
Price: $22
Link: Sephora

If you don't want to purchase multiple aqua products, you can just purchase one! Make Up Forever has designed a waterproof cream that can go anywhere! You can even go for Ke$ha blue lips with some loose glitter on top! This product works well as a eyeliner or cream shadow! The pigmentation is phenomenal and long lasting. Amazing...
