From clean colour makeup to Euphoria's breakout looks, it's clear to see that a big beauty trend will be making waves in 2020 — colourful eyeliner. We're not talking about your mom's navy-blue-rimmed eyes from the '80s, either. All you have to do is open any makeup artist's Instagram account to see bold colours including hot pink, electric blue, slime green, and bright white.

Whether you're drawing on a bold cat eye or rimming your waterline, there are so many ways to incorporate coloured eyeliner into your beauty routine. To get your wheels turning, we curated a selection of looks we love for inspiration, as well as a shopping guide to our favourite eyeliners you should order online. Peruse our picks and get totally inspired.
