If you're only going to color your crease, Baker suggests reaching for a liner or a stick shadow, because these products will provide more application control. Try Rimmel London Magnif'Eyes Double Ended Shadow + Liner in Dark Side of the Blue. Another tip? "Add mascara," Baker says. "This will make for a more modern and hip look."

Two Times the Tint
Not wary of a whole lot of color? Daring gals can sport bright eyes with not one but two vibrant shades. "For those who are a little more adventurous, I suggest playing with two contrasting shades -- like gold and blue, purple and turquoise, pink and emerald," says Baker. "There are no rules -- play around and be fun with it." We spotted this bold two-tone approach on the Diane Von Furstenberg Spring 2016 show, where Kendall Jenner wowed with a brilliant blue-green combo.

Consistency is key when creating impactful color combos. "I would recommend using the same texture for both -- preferably a long-lasting eyeliner for this kind of color collaboration," says Baker. Rim your lower lash lines with a seafoam-y liner like Sephora Retractable Waterproof Eyeliner in Shimmering Jade and a bright blue one on upper lash lines, like the same Sephora liner in teal. Dampen the liner's built in smudger to create a glistening, smokey effect and to work the blue shade across lids. Finish off with generous coatings of mascara, which will pop brilliantly against the bold hues.

Think Pink
Though it's not your typical pink eye, we're guessing many will still find this chic pink liner pretty infectious.

Boots No7 Stay Perfect Shade & Define in Pink Pearl is a pink shade with a smudge-friendly formula that will help you build color to your heart's desire along your lower lash line. Hug the lash line for a more subtle pop of color or blur it out for a more dramatic, in-your-face effect.
