"I'thou currently loving graphic eye shadow looks in bright, unexpected colors—probably considering it's a deceptively minimalist arroyo to the very maximalist '80s aesthetic. I counterbalance it with a very commonsensical outfit (like a jumpsuit or jeans and a T-shirt), proceed the rest of my makeup very neutral, and that's enough to exist a wait.

"Blue is definitely tougher because it screams '80s in a borderline cheesy way, but I saw it done right last NYFW during Collina Strada'southward presentation: The pastel shades of blue were artistic in a quiet kind of way, and I retrieve thinking, I can exercise that. I finally put it into practice this past weekend with the help of (an patently discontinued) Models Own cream eye shadow and my secret weapon, Rituel de Fille Center Soot in Pyxis, which lends whatsoever color a blue-flecked holographic sheen. I just followed the natural lines of my hat with blending castor, et voilà—blueish magic."

"I have been obsessed with draping ever since Adam Selman featured the blush-heavy expect on his spring/summer 2017 runway. Information technology'south both assuming and architectural in equal measure out. It's everything makeup is supposed to exist—beautiful, fun, and experimental.

"What I realized afterwards trying information technology out myself (i.e. having our managing editor Lindsey apply it to me because she might besides be a professional makeup artist), is that it's shockingly versatile. I've ever been wary of chroma, especially in such bright colors, because my cheeks get pretty cherry on their own. Only I am so enthralled with the way this turned out. I picture wearing it with a neutral palette for a special event or even adding some shimmer to feel more than like an '80s video girl. This time, I used [the at present-discontinued] Urban Decay Animadversion Eye & Face Palette, Beautyblender Bounciness Liquid Whip Long Wearable Foundation, and Pat McGrath Labs' Animalism Lip Gloss in Aliengelic."

For perfect placement, smiling when applying chroma. This helps enhance the fullest parts of your face, plus adds youthful dimension.

"I had an '80s-themed trip the light fantastic toe in high schoolhouse, of which there is still photographic bear witness (unfortunately), and since then, I have mostly strayed from neon or vivid makeup looks of any kind. I adopt sultry and smoky to anything bright and bright, but after wearing lavender eye shadow for the first time in my life, I'm tempted to switch teams. I institute this silky powder, Catrice Precious Pigments Loose Eyeshadow in the shade Purple Fiction (props for punny name!). Because it's a loose shadow, it goes on sheerer and also gives y'all more control over the intensity. I dipped my finger in like the rule-breaking beauty editor that I am (okay fine, I'm simply lazy) and practical it directly to my eyelid. The end result wasn't gaudy in the slightest only a soft, dare I say, pretty launder of hazy violet over my eyelids. I finished with a swipe of Kat Von D Studded Kiss Crème Lipstick in Shell, and my '80s transformation was complete. And yes, I'm wearing this eye shadow the rest of the mean solar day (and probably tomorrow)."

"I wish I could be more experimental with eye shadow colors, merely my fair skin and pink undertones don't let for it. Every bit such, I stick to taupes and shimmery camel browns but about every unmarried day. But when tasked with trying an '80s await, I volunteered to practise pinkish lids considering you lot can't pare downwards the '80s—go bold or go home. I used Beauty by PopSugar Be the Boss Lip Gloss in Time After Time—how apropos for an '80s look—for a glossy pinkish-mauve wash of color and loved the results. I'm as well wearing it on my lips in this picture (which goes to show how versatile information technology is). After a while, my lids felt a chip too sticky, so I'd save the await for a special event, but I had so much fun photographing it and picking upwardly the dimension of the gloss."
