Baby Blue Eyes: The go-to colour on eyes for the season is blue, from turquoise liner at the New York shows to smudgy cobalt at shows in Milan.  The versatile applications are a fun way to play with your makeup!

On lids, graphic liner is given an update by being a little bit chaotic, instead of a neat line.  The pretty shade looks super cool when applied with a bit of disconnection.  Start with an eye liner brush, and dip into a bright shade.  Apply from the inner corner and sweep toward the middle of the eye along the crease.  Leave a gap and end with a cat eye flick on the corner of your eye.  More into a pastel shade of blue?  To recreate this sweet look, sweep powder over your entire lid, and finish with spiky mascara to create a mod-inspired look.
