Shimmer Galore at Adeam
Glittery eyelids that "reflect light even in a nightclub" were created by Nars global artistry director, Sada Ito, at Adeam this season. He used a combination of Mendoza, Pattaya, Rio De La Plata and Melrose Single Eyeshadows to create a soft and warm glow across the entire lid, then applied a light coat of Climax Mascara for a no-fuss finish.

Pink Eyelashes at Ulla Johnson
Makeup artist for Bobbi Brown, Romy Soleimani, paired up with Ulla Johnson this season for a super fresh spring look. The coral-stained, just-bitten look (Bold Nectar and Fever Pitch) was stunning, but it's the fluttering pink eyelashes that really stole the spotlight. If you're wondering where you can buy the mascara, you'll have to sit tight since Soleimani used a prototype she mixed up with Bobbi Brown. (While you're waiting, try Lancome's Big Color Lash Top Coat in Pink.)

Subtle Holographic Lids at Anna Sui
Legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath took the makeup wheel this season at Anna Sui where she used her own products to create a truly breathtaking "no-makeup makeup" look — but with a twist. The look had everything you'd expect for a "me, but better" aesthetic, including dewy skin, a natural flush and natural lips. However, McGrath also incorporated prismatic shadows onto lids and cupid's bow via her just-launched Mothership V: Bronze Seduction Palette. The result? A now-you-see it, now-you-don't holographic shift with every subtle movement.

Splashy Green Lids at Christian Siriano
If you're craving an eye look that's slightly bolder, try on the splashy green lids worn by models at Christian Siriano. The look was created by Aveda's global artistic director, Janell Geason, and was inspired by the lush landscapes of Hawaii. Geason focused on creating beautiful skin and then added a pop of green along the lashes via Aveda's Jade Vine eyeliner, a creamy mixture of pigment, and then a touch of Papyrus eyeshadow on top to set the look.

Villain Wings at The Blonds
It was a star-laden show at The Blonds, where Paris Hilton and Patrick Starr helped bring to life the designers' Disney Villain theme by dressing as villains themselves. The remaining models wore a gilded, geometric winged eye with a black strikeout that provided the perfect dose of wickedness.

To create, key makeup artist for M.A.C. Cosmetics, Kabuki, drew a sharply angled wing with Pro Longwear Fluidline in Blacktrack, then topped it Dazzleshadow Liquid in Blinking Brilliant. You could easily get away with recreating a literal version of this look for the right occasion but a toned-down reinterpretation could also work beautifully.
