Orange Idea
Eyeliner is one of the best ways to ease into the neon makeup trend. An orange liner isn't that much of a departure from warm-toned neutrals. After drawing on a skinny line, start extending it out toward the outer corner of the brow. For more drama, top with the faintest dusting of coordinating sparkle. A neutral lipstick will keep the vivid eyes in check.

Red Ahead
Another easy hack is to upgrade a classic red lipstick for the most pigmented, vibrant one available. With color this intense, every mistake is extremely noticeable so apply the product with a lip brush for a flawless finish and be mindful of product migrating to your teeth. A dab of iridescent white eyeshadow on the center of each eye makes the striking lippie pop.

Tangerine Tick
Stick with a classic gray smoky eye and neutral lip color, but go out of the neutral comfort zone by drawing a dash of bright orange eyeliner on the outer corner of your eye and another on the inner corner. The small lines awaken the face. What's more, the shape means you don't have to worry about drawing a long, perfectly straight line across the upper lash line.

Bright Blue
This striking look covers the colored mascara, neon makeup and blue eyeshadow trends and it's easy to do. Line the eyes with a pigmented blue feline flick. Then coat the upper lashes with a coordinating mascara. A neutral lip gloss lets the eyes do the talking — and it ticks off another trend.

Bold Strokes
Here's proof that a fiery eye makeup look doesn't need red, yellow and orange or to be applied from lash lines to brows. Use a thick eyeshadow brush to dab the color on the inner corners of the eyes. Alternatively, use a thick red eyeliner to color in the shape. Leave off mascara and go easy on defining brows. Nothing should try to compete with the graphic eyeliner.
