18 Purple Eyeliner Looks To Elevate Your Makeup
The shade is associated with royalty for a reason.
It can be hard to pick a favorite shade for your eye makeup looks, but there’s just something about purple eyeliner that stands out from the rest. (The shade is often referred to as the color of royalty, after all.)
As makeup artists Keri Blair and Samson Smith previously told Bustle, purple eyeliner looks great on just about everyone and is particularly stunning on those with brown or green eyes.
From inky, almost-black plum to neon violet, the options are endless when it comes to purple eyeliner looks and finding a specific shade to complement your eye color. You can go bold with a high-contrast, negative space look; you can do a smokey liner look if you want a minimal look that’s perfect for fall; you can also draw on intricate shapes for an artist, graphic eyeliner look.
Interested in giving the regal color a try for yourself? To help inspire some ideas (and show how truly versatile the hue can be), below are 18 purple eyeliner looks to save to your makeup mood board.
6Purple Monochrome
If you love the tinted brow look, then why not try purple? Complete the look with a matching eyeliner.
8Negative Space
Negative space liner is one of many ways to get graphic — and purple’s complementary color yellow makes the perfect companion if you’re using two hues.
18Ultraviolet Contrasts
Blend your lavender liner into a bluish purple shade for a dynamic negative space look.
