This is a trend that’s not for the faint-hearted, but the payoff is worth it as the glossy sheen adds a new dimension to the finishing touches of your eye makeup. Don’t have an eye gloss on hand? No problem – any clear lip gloss will do.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can even use tinted lip gloss for instant colour and shine. For a look that's bold yet easy to pull off, draw the eyes with a metallic eye crayon, then smudge it out for a chic, grunge-inspired effect.
