Colorful liner doesn't always have to be cutting edge and daring -- it can also be sweet and romantic. Take something shimmery and pearly like Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner in Luna(Tic), $25, and pair it with a gorgeous shell pink lipstick (and pearl studs, of course), and you're good to go.
