After the year that was 2020, it's no surprise that 2021 makeup trends are bold, bright, eclectic, and above all over-the-top. You can speak volumes without saying a word with a simple wing and feathery lashes or a smoldering, bold smoky eye. If eyes are the windows to the soul, then eye makeup is the drapery and molding that frame them. Eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, brow products galore — eye makeup is truly where makeup and art intersect.
Since we will continue to wear masks for the foreseeable future, eye makeup will make a statement more than ever. From colored mascara and white eyeliner to bringing back the '80s and '90s, I tried most of the 2021 eye-makeup trends so that you can incorporate them into your own life. These looks can work with or without a mask — you can even match your eye makeup to your masks. Some of these trends are definitely a challenge but don't worry. I got you covered on the tips and tricks I used, including all products you need to get the look and make it your own.
