Valentino’s Fall 2021 Haute Couture collection is big on brights. Specifically neon. Many grand gowns came in traditional highlighter shades. But it was the coordinating wings on models’ eyes that really made a statement. And really made us want to buy neon eyeliners in bulk.
So we embarked on a massive online search to track down the boldest shades possible. From liquid to cushion, there’s a vivid eyeliner no matter which formula you favor. All of them are easy to apply and have real staying power. A few picks are even enhanced by UV or black light.
Since we’re dealing with shockingly bold hues, it’s best to keep the rest of your face bare. Of course, you can slather on a BB cream boasting SPF. That’s actually a requirement.
Here are the most striking neon eyeliners to buy ASAP.
