1. Rainbow EyeshadowWear your pride on your eyes like Destiny Gay with rainbow ombré eyeshadow representing the pansexual pride flag. “To keep these bright pigments in place all day, I started off by applying Hydro Grip Eye Primer onto my lids,” she says. After blending the colors together, she highlighted the inner corners of her eyes with Color Chalk in Skip It “to make the pink really pop and shift in the light,” she adds. From there, Destiny concealed her under eyes with Future Fluid All Over Cream Concealer and contoured her cheeks with Sculpt Stick in Toasted. She topped her lips with Electric Glossy Lip Plumper in Amped. Look by: Destiny Gay (she/her), Market Trainer Phoenix, Arizona |

2. Green Shimmer LinerGive your signature winged liner look a twinkling twist by packing a bold, shimmery pigment on top of your black flicks for some fun depth and dimension. “I reached for Color Chalk in Green Light and brushed it on top of Infinity Long Wear Eyeliner in Outer Space,” Destiney explains. She also brought reflectiveness to her lips with Electric Glossy Lip Plumper in Charged. To continue building up the drama, Destiney swept the KUSH Lash Primer on her upper and lower lashes, as well as generous coats of RISE Waterproof Mascara to lengthen and curl her lush lashes. Then, she filled in her arches with KUSH Brow Shadow Stick in Dutch and slicked them up with KUSH Brow Lamination Gel for a fluffy feathered effect.

3. Smoky EyeAnother way to amplify your everyday makeup routine: smoky eyes with thick navy eyeliner. “It’s something a little bolder and more fun than my go-to look but achievable with only a few products,” Alexis shares. Prior to doing her usual base makeup routine, Alexis prepped her skin with Hydro Grip Primer and gave her cheeks a peachy rose flush with Lip + Cheek in Perk. Then, she beefed up her brows with the ultimate duo for full arches: KUSH Brow Shadow Stick in Herb and KUSH Brow Lamination Gel. For her party-ready smoky eye, Alexis used classic taupe hues from her favorite eyeshadow palette before drawing on statement wings with Infinity Long Wear Eyeliner in Time and smudging it out along her lower lashes with the blender built into the end of the pencil. And nope, she’s not wearing false lashes—It’s just RISE Waterproof Mascara. Look by: Alexis Jackson (she/her), Market Trainer, San Diego, CA |

4. Lime Green Dream“[This makeup] puts emphasis on the eyes, starting with the brows to help frame the look,” Ari says. He started off by creating a soft-focus brow with KUSH Brow Shadow Stick in Dutch, then adding KUSH Brow Lamination Gel on top to “lift, shape, and set brows for a brushed-up laminated effect,” he explains. After sweeping your favorite vibrant lime eyeshadow along your lower lash lines, coat your lashes with RISE Waterproof Mascara. “Bonus tip: Use Hydro Grip Eye Primer under the eyes to lock in powder shadows and before concealer to prevent creasing,” Ari adds. Finish off the party beauty look with a nude lip, and you’ll be good to go. Look by: Ari Adams (he/him), Sales & Education Executive, NYC |

5. Neon YellowDestiny is all about finding inspiration for her makeup looks from the smallest things around her, including, but not limited to, the neon yellow packaging we house our Vegan Milk Cleanser and Vegan Milk Moisturizer in. The fluorescence lit up Destiny’s party makeup: graphic eye makeup with a liquid eyeliner in the same shade of yellow as our jars and tubes. She painted the bright hue over a base of Matte Bronzer in her creases. Later, she also smudged the stick onto her lips and cheeks to tie the whole neutral-yet-vibrant eye makeup look.

4. Euphoria GlamWhile we await a new season of Euphoria, keep the experimental makeup vibes alive with lots of gems and dazzling eye makeup like Chaz does. No matter what shimmer eyeshadows you end up using for your take on this party look, “Spray a bit of Hydro Grip Set + Refresh Spray onto your brush for a more pigmented and brighter application,” she recommends. To ensure the eyes and gems are the focus of the look, Chaz kep the rest of her face "more natural” by adding a hint of Lip + Cheek in Smirk to her cheeks and clear gloss aka Electric Glossy Lip Plumper in Pumped on her lips. Then, “I finalized everything by spritzing my face with Hydro Grip Set + Refresh Spray to make my skin more plump and supple,” Chaz adds. “Lastly, I glued on several rhinestones to pull the whole Euphoria glam together.” Look by: Chaz Acevedo (she/her), Market Trainer, NYC |

7. Pastel PartyHeaded to a party in a park? Consider this pastel cat eye moment. “Usually, shimmery eyeshadow is layered on top of matte, but I wanted to flip that around for a super striking-yet-ethereal aesthetic,” Devon says. In this case, she coated her lids with Color Chalk in Hula Hoop first followed by matte sky blue eyeshadow as eyeliner—achieved by spritzing an angled liner brush with Hydro Grip Set + Refresh Spray to keep the pigment from disappearing into the glittery ether. Bionic Blush in Infinity and milky pink lips via Lip + Cheek in Dash and Electric Glossy Lip Plumper in Charged rounded out the pastel dreaminess.

8. Rave Brows“Taking it retro can get everyone in the groove,” Ari says, “This boldly monochromatic eye look will give anyone Saturday night fever.” We can’t argue with that. You can easily add color to your brows by prepping them with KUSH Lash Primer and pressing power eyeshadow in any color your heart desires over top. Then, grab a matching liner to draw on a groovy wing, and “use KUSH Mascara to add extra volume to the Robin's egg-hued eye,” he adds. To take the disco vibes to the next level, blend Bionic Glow in Virtual along your brow bones and bring it down onto the high planes of the cheekbones “to direct eyes to the eye look,” Ari says. Bonus tip: Use a dense brush when applying the highlight to get a high-impact sheen, he adds. Look by: Ari Adams (he/him), Sales & Education Executive, NYC |

9. Star-Studded“My inspo for this celestial look: K-pop stars,” Devon shares. “Some of my favorites, like Blackpink’s Jennie and Seulgi of Red Velvet, have been adding sparkle along the bridges of their noses, and I love the unexpected face glitz.” For her take on the trend, she stuck on rhinestones and star-shaped nail decals with some patience and tweezers. However, be sure to do the rest of your makeup before this step, she recommends. “I made the mistake of doing my mascara last and had to clean specks of the pigment off my sticker work,” she adds. Devon kept the rest of her makeup to a minimum with dewy, fresh skin courtesy of Hydro Grip Primer and spot concealing with Future Fluid. She also tapped Lip + Cheek in Muse onto both her lips and cheeks for sheer washes of color. Look by: Devon Abelman (she/her), Contributing Writer |

10. Pearl AccentsNothing says old-school party glam like a red lip and pearls. But have you considered gluing the pearls to your face? Take cues from Destiny, and accessorize any eye makeup look, including, but not limited to, stacked black and white graphic liner, with a sprinkling of flat-backed pearls. For her red lipstick, she reached for Lip + Cheek in Flip. Use a lip liner in a coordinating hue to keep the color crisp and defined on your pout. Destiny also smudged Flip onto her cheeks and up to her temples for draped blush. Look by: Destiny Gay (she/her), Market Trainer Phoenix, Arizona |

11. Floral FantasyParty blush, anyone? Devon wielded Color Chalk in Skip It to craft the ultimate shimmery floral blush fantasy. All you have to do is press the flat chalk against your face and smudge it outward to create each petal. The shape of the Color Chalk naturally helps them look uniform. For the stem of the flower, “I coated a liner brush in the Green Light Color Chalk and ran it along my upper and lower lash lines, making sure to bring the lines to points like leaves at the inner and outer corners,” Devon explains. “And because I can’t get enough of blush, I also blended Bionic Blush in Teleport onto the apples of my cheeks.” Finally, Devon topped her lips with Electric Glossy Lip Plumper in Amped to compliment the color and shimmer finish of the floral blush.
