Rainbow Pastel Eyes and Cheeks
Turns out, pale shades of blue, lavender, green and pink create quite the iridescent soap bubble effect when combined. Once you've got a good percentage of ROY G BIV represented in pastel form, just add some major false lashes. You, precious unicorn, are ready to take the world by storm.

Holographic Shadow With Winged Liner
Just because your opalescent eye shadow is ethereally beautiful doesn't mean your eyeliner wings can't be fiercely sharp. This look strikes the perfect balance between dreamy moonchild and powerful ice queen. And, it actually isn't too hard to replicate (other than that flawless wing, of course). With a generous dusting of (Makeup Geek Duochrome Pigment in Insomnia, $12, on your upper lid, you basically can't go wrong. Not that a unicorn could ever be anything but right, naturally.

Rainbow Inner Corners
How’s this for an inventive unicorn look? With a bright rainbow design highlighting your inner corners, you'll look like you have a prism shining right on your face, a fun and pretty type of optical illusion. A rainbow palette like Smashbox Cover Shot Eye Palette in Bold, $29, is key for pulling off an arresting look like this one.

Iridescent Lips
Holographic lips are a necessary addition to any unicorn beauty look worth its weight in fairy dust — even worn alone, this Lisa Frank-worthy lip is quite the statement. There are lots of great iridescent glosses out there, but the one pictured here is Jesse's Girl Glow Stix Lip Gloss in Wicked, which retails for a cool $4.99. What a steal!

Rainbow Lashes
If you're feeling the whole rainbow look, but you want to make things a touch more subtle, lashes are always a good way to fly your inner unicorn flag. You can either grab a few of your favorite colored mascaras (like NYX Cosmetics Color Mascara, $6.99), find some rainbow falsies or carefully coat your lashes with highly pigmented eye shadow.
