A few days ago I was hanging out on Tumblr when I came across this image of Kat Von D sporting a gorgeous lightning bolt inspired eyeliner makeup look. I immediately fell in love and I had to recreate it on myself ASAP, but with my own twist, of course! I love how clean and sharp her application was, and I knew that it was going to be a challenge, but I'm pretty content with the turnout! I especially like the illusion of an almost normal looking liner when the eyes are open, but then you get that intense, angular cut liner when you blink. To add to that rock-star-esque vibe, I decided to pair this bold liner look with even bolder pyramid-studded lashes. Also instead of a red lip, I opted for a vibrant, neon pink. Go big or go home!

Are you a fan of the graphic liner look? I sure am. It's loud. fun and different, without being too dramatic. I think it's sleek and sexy! Another thing I love about this type of look is that you can go as simple or as loud as you want, and you can pair it with any lip color of your choice.
I hope you are all doing well! Take care!
