Invisible eyeliner summer 2022 – elegant and stylish
If you like playing with colors or creating a smoky eye with a mix of different eyeshadow colors, then you definitely shouldwith this makeup trendexperiment. It creates a wild eyeliner by tracing a wing with shadow but not actually filling it in - hence the name "invisible eyeliner." The makeup looks like you put tape on it, painted over it, and then peeled it off to get a perfect line. The entire lid has perfectly blended colors, but the area where eyeliner is normally applied appears to be completely bare. The result is stunning and apparently not that impossible to replicate in front of your own bathroom mirror.
How this makeup trend came about
Everyone blames Stacey McDonald, a professional makeup artist from England, for this stunning trend. The look came about by chance when she was teaching a make-up class. Actually, she should paint a different eyeliner using an adhesive tape. She removed the tape anddas Make-uplooked different, but totally beautiful. She originally called it No-Eyeliner, then it became Invisible Eyeliner. As people realized that they were still wings, floating eyeliner became a more popular term for it.
Makeup artists and lovers around the world are trying out the trend and taking inspiration from Stacey. They rely on glitter, monochromatic eyeshadows and lots of creativity.
What's the easiest way to recreate the invisible eyeliner look?
The 2 variants of the make-up artist
Makeup artist McDonald has two suggestions. You can either use tape or eye makeup remover. If you decide to use tape, you'll need the standard clear variety that you have on your desk.The technologyis similar to the perfect cat eye look. Instead of placing it diagonally on the outer corners of your eyes, stick it in the middle of the lash line in the same diagonal direction. Then apply the eyeshadow of your choice and blend it as desired. After peeling off the tape, you can draw a line of glitter or black liquid liner along the sharp edge of the eyeshadow.
You can also work backwards. First apply the eyeshadow all over the eyelid. Then clean the “invisible” area with an eye makeup remover.
Makeup tutorial without tape
- Prep your eyes and groom your brows.
- Choose a peach eyeshadow, use a fluffy brush and apply it into the crease.
- Now take a brown eyeshadow on the same fluffy brush and intensify the outer area of the crease.
- Using a small brush, roll over a dark, matte black and draw a “V” in the outer corner. Be careful not to go too far out.
- Start blending the colors well. Avoid the outermost corners and the main area of the lid, as this is where the Invisible Eyeliner is applied.
- Go slow and gentle. Take brown and blend hard lines.
- Now take concealer on a small, square brush and apply it to the area where you want the invisible wing. Give the winged eyeliner some sort of shape.
- Set your makeup with powder.
- Using a gold (or choose another color you like) eyeliner, draw a line from the inner corner of your eye to the outer end of the invisible eyeliner you drew.
- If you want, add another eyeliner over the gold line. Emphasize the brow bone and the inner corner of the eye.
- Apply black eyeliner to the lower lash line and smudge it with brown eyeshadow.
- Also apply a coat of mascara to complete your look. Finally, you can apply artificial eyelashes.
Invisible eyeliner – inspiring variations of the look
To give you ideas on how you can implement the trend yourself, here are some great variations of the look. Get inspired!
- Accents with glitter
To really show off your wingtip, accentuate the dramatic line with a heavy dose of glitter. This way you use a dramatic amount of negative space that contrasts with the glitter in a playful way.
- It has to be colorful
To really show off your invisible eyeliner, accentuate the edge where the shadow and lid meet with an unexpected eyeliner color.
- Bordered with black
To make the look even more striking, accentuate the gap between the lash line and the eyeshadow with a dark, black eyeliner to really highlight that negative space.
- The invisible eyeliner remains subtle
You don't have to make your negative space huge—you can even use it subtly to accentuate the other colors in your makeup look.
