Trying a new look can be *totes* scary. I get it!

Editorial looks, especially, can look a bit ~wacky~. Your inner Karen might wonder who even let you out of the house.

Today, I’m walking you through the steps to create a fun, wearable editorial look!

One of my fave designs ATM is silly, sunshine-y eyeliner. It creates this cute lil halo over your eyelids — and I swear, it’s super simple!

First things first, let’s chat materials you’ll need! I’m starting with the bright yellow L.A. Girl Shockwave Eyeliner in Screamin’ — it’s currently less than $4 at Ulta. Budget queen! For this look, we’ll also need a base color; choose a powder eyeshadow that’s similar to your skin tone. Personally, I choose the shade Strange from Urban Decay’s Naked3 palette. It’s this shimmery vanilla that provides the perfect canvas for the neon yellow liner.

Mascara is optional for this look. Say whaaaaaat?! Ya heard me right. Ever since “Euphoria” makeup artist Doniella Davy shared that she doesn’t use mascara for the series’ fun looks, I’ve been skipping this step.

Okay, let’s get into it!

First, begin by sweeping the base color alllllll over your eyelid. I’m bad about this and just use my fingers (sorry!!!!!!) but you can opt for a fluffy eyeshadow brush. The name of the game here is creating a consistent, even base. At the same time, you can add a bit of concealer underneath your brow; it’ll help them pop!

Once you’re confident in your canvas, start drawing the sun rays with a sharpened eyeliner pencil! It’s A-OK if it isn’t perfect. Just have fun with it!

Once you’ve created five to 10 short lines above your lid, reach for Q-tip — this will help to clean up the lines! Making some lines thicker than others can keep the look ~spicy~. It’s totally fine if the lines are a bit messy, too.

Look at that! You’re already done!

Outfit-wise, I’d suggest pairing this bold look with a more low-key ensemble. My go-to is a black T-shirt or sweatshirt; it lets your eyeshadow shine!
