Your graduation is right around the corner, and if your outfit (which is sitting right beneath your gown), your nails [1] (which may be hidden by your lengthy sleeves) and your hairstyle (which is pinned below your hat [2]) have all gotten ample attention — why shouldn't your makeup [3]?

On this list, you'll find simple ways to upgrade your go-to neutral eye shadow look, make memories with an iridescent highlighter [4], and integrate flecks of — dare we say — glitter into your makeup look for the big day. Read on for our eye-catching makeup ideas for your graduation day, and remember, your look can be just as memorable as the ceremony itself.

Bright Eye Shadow

Bright eye shadow is one way to make your beauty look stand out. You could sweep a trendy shade of lilac across your lids for the Springtime ceremony, or take it to the next level by dusting on your school colours.

Bold Berry Lip

Swipes of a vivid lipstick — like an opaque berry or electric purple — is a quick way to add something memorable to your graduation day beauty look. It's super easy to touch up too.

Neutral Eye Makeup

Neutral shades can make a statement if you gravitate toward ones with metallic or shimmery finishes. We love the high-impact hues inside Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Palette in The Golden Goddess [5] ($53).

See-From-Space Highlighter

"What highlighter is she wearing?" is the question you'll get from your friends, family, and maybe even your future children each time you pull up photos and videos of your Graduation walk.

Glitter Eye Makeup

Your family will never lose sight of you on graduation day. Glitter guarantees you'll shine in the crowd (even if the crowd happens to be of hundreds of people.)
