Please keep reading to see our gorgeous glitter looks that go from subtle to bold and everywhere in between.

1.Blissful Burgundy and Gold

Gold glitter eyeliner looks lovely against dark colors like burgundy. Achieve this style using a deep burgundy color on the eyelid and blend with a lighter shade of mauve in the crease up to the browbone. Gold glitter eyeliner is swiped on the upper lash line and lifted upwards to create a winged look.

2. Electric Blue

This natural eye makeup gets a shock of color with electric blue. Neutral brown eyeshadow is applied on the lid and blended up to the browbone. A hint of highlighter adds glow and definition under the brows. Use black eyeliner to create a defined cat-eye, and accentuate with a swipe of glittery blue eyeliner on top. Complete the look with two coats of mascara on upper and lower lashes.

3. Stunning Silver

Bold is beautiful with this silver design. Apply slate grey eyeshadow to the lid and blend with a deeper charcoal grey on the outer corner and into the crease. Dab a small amount of metallic silver eyeshadow on the inner corner to pair with silver glitter eyeliner to achieve a winged look. Use liquid black eyeliner to line the upper lashes and bottom waterline and finish with several coats of mascara.

4. Romantic Rose Gold

There's no color quite as beautiful as rose gold. Recreate this look by blending taupe and mauve shades of eyeshadow on the lid and crease and smudge a small amount on the lower lash line. Use a liquid black liner to make a bold cat-eye. Once dry, take rose gold glitter liner and start at the inner corner and stop 3/4 of the way on top and line bottom lash line.

6. Elegant Simplicity

Want to try glitter eyeliner but not quite ready to go bold? This look is an excellent way to test the waters that looks elegant in the office or a night on the town. Blend sheer nude eyeshadow from lid to browbone and use black liquid liner to create a winged look. Use gold glitter eyeliner underneath the wing for a hint of shimmer. Finish with mascara on top lashes for a black and gold combination that'll never go out of style.

7. Cotton Candy Dreams

Cotton candy hues come together to create a beautiful design. Apply periwinkle shadow on the lid and lower lash line. Next, use a deep violet shade and blend from the center of the eyelid to the outer corner. Place a small amount of pearl shadow and smudge on the inner eye and underneath eyebrows. Use black eyeliner to make a dramatic wing and white holographic glitter liner to apply what's known as a floating crease line. For the most dramatic effect, add false lashes.
