And now we want to trade in our black eyeliner for a blue one, too

Guys, Kim Kardashian just posted a snap on Instagram wearing electric blue eyeliner and it’s giving off some serious fire emojis.

In case you missed it, she paired bright blue liquid liner with a peachy-nude matte lip, loose platinum blonde waves, and her flawless face was courtesy of KKW Beauty Powder Contour And Highlighter Kit. Now this is one look we *cannot* wait to copy.

It looks like blue is the new black (because Kim said so, that’s why). Not only does it deliver the perfect pop of colour to perk up brown peepers, but it’s also all kinds of fun and a fresh switch-up from the classic black. Plus, it’s spring over in the US so Kim’s totally making it a new thing.

Check out our top blue eyeliner picks for recreating this killer look!

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Chaos

Featuring a rich pigment payoff, this creamy eyeliner pencil really stays put (can you tell by the name?) and it’ll take your look from day to night with ease. For a no-fuss application and minimal touch-ups, this is a total winner!

Sephora Collection Fingertip Eyeliner in 04 Blue

We are SO on board with these genius fingertip eyeliners! Where have they been all our life? They make shaky hands and squiggly lines a thing of the past. Ultra-precise and cheap as chips, the colour is intense and long-lasting – a firm fave.

Rimmel London Colour Precise Eyeliner in 002 Blue

Whether you’re going for thick or thin lines, this felt-tip pen makes it a breeze to nail sleek, clean lines. The formula is also quick-drying and flake-free, meaning it’ll actually stay on your lids ‘til the cab ride home.

Stay-All-Day-Waterproof-Liquid-Eyeliner-Cobalt

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner in Cobalt

A waterproof liner that glides on beautifully AND won’t budge? Yes, it’s a thing! Shucks Stila. This thin marker-like tip is super easy to use (even for beginners) and guarantees a defined, dramatic eye makeup look. We’re big fans.

Kat Von D Ink Liner in Nerdrum

This bold sea-blue hue is a gift from liquid liner heaven - it’s crisp, buildable and the razor-sharp matte finish is FIERCE. It’s also completely budge-proof and will stick around until you tell it not to.

Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner in Out Of The Blue

Make a statement and nab yourself the most intense colour with absolute ease. This gel liner delivers the best of both worlds – use it to effortlessly line your eyes, or team it with other colours and apply over the whole eye for a layered look.

If blue eyeliner is just not your thang, check out some of the latest liquid liners that’ll up your makeup game.
