Bold Strokes
Here's proof that a fiery eye makeup look doesn't need red, yellow and orange or to be applied from lash lines to brows. Use a thick eyeshadow brush to dab the color on the inner corners of the eyes. Alternatively, use a thick red eyeliner to color in the shape. Leave off mascara and go easy on defining brows. Nothing should try to compete with the graphic eyeliner.

Energized Eyes
Mellow yellow this is not. A shot of sunny yellow on the lower lash line is the equivalent of having three strong shots of espresso. The look is actually best with a duller eye pencil because it creates a thicker line. Finish the look with just a touch of lip balm.

Lit Lips
There's more to neon makeup than the basic highlighter colors. Get creative with an electric coral lipstick. The color will make teeth look super white so make sure to show off that gorgeous grin. Balance the look-at-me lippie with a few coats of black mascara and softly defined brows. That's all.

Fabulous Fuchsia
Cast every mascara rule aside and load up the top and bottom lashes with cheery fuchsia mascara. Just when you think you've applied enough, add another coat.

It's Electric
If you've already experimented with blue and black lipstick, it's time to try radioactive orange. It's definitely no wallflower shade, but it is flattering, especially when paired with dewy skin. Pro tip: For a fluorescent finish, apply a light-colored foundation as a primer or use a white lipstick like Make Up For Ever Artist Rouge Creme Lipstick in C600 White, $22. It'll make the color extra bright.
