Beauty / Celebrity Glamour

The age of “no-makeup” makeup is the way to a dynamic, expressive, and transformative beauty language, spoken fluently through the eyes.

Thanks to the resurgence of glamour, nostalgia, and boundary-pushing artistry, celebs lead a movement where eyeliner is an accessory, colour is identity, and lashes are pure poetry. With brands like Chanel, Dior, and Saint Laurent Beautydelivering luxury formulas that perform under flashbulbs and on the runway, this eye-first revolution is breathtaking.

Callout Box: “At a glance, stars tell stories. Their eyes are style manifestos, and makeup is the script.”

TREND 1:

The return of the Graphic Eyeliner.

If there’s one trend reshaping the beauty landscape, it’s the graphic liner revival. Angular wings, floating shapes, and exaggerated flicks transform eyelids into modern canvases.

Spotted On:

• Zendaya in soft architectural lines with Dior Beauty’s Diorshow On Stage Liner
• Anya Taylor-Joy with classic noir wings reimagined through Tom Ford’s Eye Defining Pen

Pro Tip:
The drama that lasts through the afterparty, Saint Laurent’s Couture Liquid Eyeliner offers precision and high pigment without smudging.

Tip Box: Use a tracing pencil before applying liquid for better symmetry.

TREND 2

Metallic & Foil Lids for the Win

Chrome eyes? Yes, please. The celestial lid is here, shimmering in precious-metal tones and wrapped in red carpet glam.

Power Moments:

• Gigi Hadid in molten silver created with Chanel’s Ombre Première Laque
• Janelle Monáe stunned in golds paired with peachy inner corners using Pat McGrath Labs’ Mothership V Palette

Apply Like This:

• Use your fingertip for soft, diffused edges.
• Stick to one shimmer shade for max impact.

Callout: Metallic photographs like a dream and lift any evening look with one sweep.

TREND 3

Neon Isn’t Just a Phase — It’s the Main Event

Neon eyeshadow has broken free from 80s nostalgia and planted itself firmly in high fashion — no apologies, all attitude.

Worn By:

• Dua Lipa, with highlighter-orange lids at Paris Fashion Week
• Megan Thee Stallion, who blended hot pink with violet from Pat McGrath Labs’ Bold Colour Pigments

Editor’s Recommendation:

Use Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof in ‘Or Rose’ for a hint of neon metallic under the eye. Build layers using Dior’s Backstage Eyeshadow Palettes for gradient perfection.

Side Note: Pair neons with nude lips and minimal blush for modern elegance.

TREND 4

Reverse Cat-Eyes & Underliner Power Moves

Suddenly, the drama is underneath. Celebs are flipping the classic cat-eye script, shifting emphasis to the bottom lash line for a fierce, runway-inspired impact.

Star Examples:

• Kendall Jenner in dark slate liner smudged with precision.
• Rihanna turned heads with electric blue underliner done using Tom Ford’s Emotionproof Liner.

Product Shoutout:

Saint Laurent Beauty’s Dessin du Regard Waterproof Liner delivers creamy intensity that won’t budge.

Tip Box: Balance this bold lower lash look with fresh skin and barely-there lips.
