Eyeliner is a great product to use when you want to amp up your look and make your lashes seem thicker and more defined. However, it can get a bit boring to smudge on that brown pencil or paint on a thin line of black liner. Instead of going with your usual eyeliner look, try one of these ideas, inspired by Glamour magazine.

1. Bust out some color. While black and brown shades are flattering for neutral day looks, a pop of colorful eyeliner is unexpected and will add interest to any look. Try Too Faced – Starry Eyed Liquid Eye Liner and don’t be afraid to go a little wild by making a cat eye!

2. Metallics…on your bottom lash line. Metallic colors are super chic for the holiday season, and nothing’s more fresh than trying it out on your lower lash line. Use a sparkly bronze, gold or silver shade and keep your top lid sheer with a shimmery shadow like Bare Escentuals – Glimmer Eye Shadow.

3. Jewel-toned inner rims. Use a blue, green or even purple eyeliner pencil to fill in your inner rims, then go with a standard black liquid liner over your lash lines. The whites of your eyes will appear brighter and much more interesting.
