Here are 10 blue eyeliners so you can get disco eyes just like Margot Robbie
Sorry trusty black eyeliner, but Seventies-style disco-blue eyes might just be the hottest new trend for this Spring/Summer. You have Margot Robbie to thank, who had no qualms in sporting an Abba-worthy blue eye makeup at this year’s BAFTAs, a look created by Pati Dubriff using a combination of blue and black Chanel eyeliners, mascara and a sprinkle of glitter for extra va va voom.
While the comeback trend might not be for everyone, the blue-eyed look is an easy way to make a statement if you’re keeping the rest of your make-up relatively low-key - we suggest working it with just a little concealer and simple nude lip. Then just a quick flick and you’re ready to go. If you’re feeling extra brave, you could try teaming it with a blue mascara (but we’ll leave it to you to decide).
So why not try re-creating your own statement eye? From Mediterranean-shaded azures to frosty inks, we’ve picked the best blue eyeliners to turn you into an instant dancing queen…
Stylo Yeux Waterproof in Fervent Blue, £22, Chanel
If it’s good enough for Margot Robbie, it’s good enough for us. This electric blue waterproof pencil won’t budge in water or humidity or even if you cry. No blue tears here.
Couture Kajal Eye Liner, £26, Yves Saint Laurent
We love this eyeliner because it can work as an khol or eyeshadow, gliding on so effortlessly, it’s practically idiot-proof. And just look at the shade! Abba-tastic.
Highliner Matte Gel Eye Crayon in Deju Blue, £20, Marc Jacobs Beauty
This crayon glides on so easily, no wonder that it’s won a number of beauty awards. We love that's it's creamy and lasts up to 12 hours without fading.
Gel liner in Cobalt Ink, £19.50, Bobbi Brown
A little pot of inky blue is just what your makeup bag is shouting out for. This is great for anyone who prefers a navy smoky eye rather than eye-popping Seventies flick. It’s also great at lasting all evening.
On Stage Liner in Matte Pastel Blue, £27.50, Dior
If you’re planning a long night of partying, Diorshow is exactly what you need. It will stick for 24 hours, no matter how much fun you’re having so no more topping up in the taxi.
Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner in Abbey Road, £22, Nars
Rich and creamy, just how we like our liners. This long-wear little pencil of magic guarantees no smearing or caking and is named after one of the most iconic streets in the world. What’s not to love?
Stay Perfect Amazing Eyes Pencil in Navy Blue, £7.50, No.7
It’s not called Stay Perfect for nothing. This eye-liner is almost silk-like on touch and one simple slick later and you have instant wider, brighter peepers.
Exaggerate Automatic Waterproof Eye Definer in Aqua Sparkle, £3.99, Rimmel London
Rimmel London sure know how to do an eye-liner. This purse-friendly aqua-hued colour comes with a nifty smudging tool and built-in sharpener which is even better.
Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner in Gamma Ray, £17, Urban Decay
Ok, this one probably isn’t one for those looking for a low-key touch of blue. This is what we call intense but, boy, this one packs a punch. It’s hardcore sparkle and provides a heavy dose of glam rock with added soothing peach and cucumber extracts to soothe your eyes at the same time.
Off Tropic Pro Liner in So Fresh, £5.50, NYX Professional
Those who don’t like neons, look away now! This eyeliner has us dreaming of the tropics in this very vibrant shade. It even has the added bonus of being very affordable and water-resistant.
