Try Gold Eyeliner for Touch of Glam this Weekend
Ann Russell
While black and brown eyeliner is always classic, gold eyeliner is a surprisingly useful item to have in your beauty kit. It pops against all skin tones and adds a touch of glam to any beauty look. You can go subtle with gold liner and smudge the lash line or add a bold swipe for an eye-catching vibe. You really can’t go wrong. We especially love how gold liner looks with other eyeliner shades, including black (of course) and other metallics like silver.
Choose Maybelline’s Starlight Gold liner if you’re looking for a more laid-back glam. The shimmer makes your eyes sparkle but the gold hue is lighter and more subtle. On the other hand, Revlon’s gel eyeliner in 24K is exactly what its name describes: a bold, rich gold. For a long-wearing formula that’s also cruelty-free (and Leaping Bunny certified!), we love Wunder2’s Metallic Gold pencil liner. It goes on like a cream and blends out beautifully.
