Wearing a face mask has become the new normal, thanks to the pandemic. While this rules out the possibility of flaunting your fav shade of lipstick under the mask, it also serves as the perfect opportunity to work on your eye makeup skills to play up your eyes and recreate all those stunning looks you’ve pinned on Pinterest.
We’ve rounded up some simple, yet stunning eye makeup looks that you can take inspiration from to refresh your eye makeup game and give your usual (albeit slightly boring) winged eyeliner a break…
- 01. Different coloured upper and lower lids
- 02. Mismatched eyeshadow
- 03. White eyeliner
- 04. Graphic eyes
- 05. Monochromatic eyes
01. Different coloured upper and lower lids

If you’re wearing a black or any neutral-coloured mask, then adding a pop of colour to your eyes is a great way to break the monotony. But instead of wearing just one eyeshadow colour, why not sport two complementary colours on your upper and lower eyelid? Such a fun and easy way to brighten up an otherwise basic look, don’t you think?
02. Mismatched eyeshadow

Mismatched eyes have become a huge hit among celebrities and influencers alike, simply because of how fun it looks when put together. Much like the previous trend, mismatched is a great way to give your imagination some wings and play with different colours to create a stunning eye makeup look.
03. White eyeliner

If you thought white eyeliners can only be used to make your eyes look bigger, think again. Apart from giving a break to your usual blacks and browns, these babies work to add just the right amount of drama to your look. The best part? They look flattering on ALL skin tones.
04. Graphic eyes

Graphic eyeliners are a great way to channel your creativity. The best part about this look is that you can create various designs using your usual black eyeliner and still manage to pack a punch.
05. Monochromatic eyes

DW, makeup minimalists, we have something for you too. Monochromatic eyes, or using just one bright eyeshadow colour all over your lid and the lower lash line will help to make your eyes pop without looking OTT.
