[ 28 Gorgeous Eyeshadow Palettes to Add to Your Collection This Spring ]
Instead of just dabbing eyelids with a touch of violet or a hint of sapphire, this bold beauty technique has celebs applying liberal amounts of eyeshadow. And not necessarily just around the eyes, either. Rihanna really started something when she stepped out at the Met Gala with a lovely fuchsia flush that spread all the way from the corners of her eyes to her temples. More recently, Katy Perry took a strikingly similar look to Glastonbury, continuing the trend. The point is to make as big and vibrant a statement as possible while remaining playful, carefree and chic. For your next summer party, get inspired from these daring celebs and brighten up your beauty routine with flashy eyeshadow. Will you go with a splash of lavender, like Jada Pinkett Smith, or an explosion of citrus, like Selena Gomez?[ 15 Gorgeous Eyeliner Looks You Haven’t Tried Yet ]
