Stardust glitter eyeliner is a mix of silver and gold. The shimmery flecks together create an iridescent color that looks creamy and delicious. If we could eat this glitter eyeliner, we would!
Galaxy Glitter Eyeliner
A mix of purple and blue glitter eyeliner creates this ethereal galaxy glitter eyeliner look. Apply your glitter eyeliner shades over your lids, and then, using your finger, blend them all over the lid to replicate this messy yet dazzling look.
Purple Glitter Eyeliner
Purple glitter eyeliner is out of this world. With a simple winged purple liner, you can look and feel as glamorous as you deserve.
Red Glitter Eyeliner
Instead of using red glitter eyeliner as eyeliner, switch up your routine and use it as eyeshadow. A couple of sweeps of red eyeliner over top of the eyelid will effortlessly give you a unique look that a regular glitter eyeshadow can’t do.
Under Eye Glitter Eyeliner
Using glitter eyeliner in unassuming ways can create beautiful and angelic makeup looks. We love the dusting of gold glitter eyeliner in the inner and outer corners.
Puppy Glitter Eyeliner
Puppy eyeliner is a popular eyeliner style in the makeup world. But we suggest you try out puppy glitter eyeliner instead. Just replace your usual black eyeliner with any glitter liner of your choice. It won’t look as dark and broody as regular puppy eyeliner, but it will look glittery and fun!

How To Apply Glitter Eyeliner
There are a handful of ways to use glitter eyeliner. You can try it on its own, with other eyeliner, or not as an eyeliner. We want to show you our favorite way to use glitter eyeliner, so take a peek at the tutorial below!
What you need to apply glitter eyeliner:
- Eye primer
- Concealer
- Glitter eyeliner
Step #1
Apply a blob of eye primer on each eyelid. This will help prime the eyes into a smooth surface for the concealer and eyeliner.
Step #2
Apply a thin layer of concealer over the lower and upper eyelids. This will help eliminate any veins under the skin. Blend it out using your fingertips or a brush.
Step #3
Now it’s the step you’ve all been waiting for! You can apply glitter eyeliner however you want, but we think a simple winged eyeliner is perfect. Using the glitter eyeliner, line your upper lash line.
Step #4
When you get to the outer corner, use your outer lashes as a guide and create a small flick of eyeliner right behind those lashes. It can go beyond them or the length of them.
Step #5
Draw a line of eyeliner from the tip of the wing you just created to the middle of the eye. Fill in the gap.
There you have it, simple glitter eyeliner that looks anything but simple!
