You know how monochromatic looks are so in style when it comes to fashion right now? Well singer Dua Lipa is simply taking this trend to the next level, by perfectly matching her color block eyeshadow to her clothes. The singer’s beauty look, which is a twist on the bold shadows that were hot in the ‘90s, can be emphasized even more by adding a metallic finish to the eyeshadow.

If you want a more dramatic makeup look, try making your eyelashes stand out by adding multiple layers of mascara like Cara Delevingne

Cara Delevingne delivers the most creative and daring take on this trend, wearing not just one shade, but three, which creates an explosive tie-die effect. The model goes to show that we shouldn’t limit ourselves in terms of colors or just to our eyelids, artfully applying the range of colors underneath her eye as well.

If you don’t want to be too daring, you can put the focus on the colorful eyeshadow and do the rest of your makeup in natural tones</br>

And if you don’t want to take this trend to the max, but still want to add a colorful touch, Eiza González has the perfect option for you. Create a smokey eye in vibrant colors and stick to natural shades for the restgiving you a look that’s balanced, but just as striking.
