In the summer of 2025, makeup is leaving behind the "safe" neutrality and playing with color. If there is one trend that stands out on the catwalks and on social media, it is the neon eyelashes and the aquamarine look.
We're not just talking about a pop of color, but an aesthetic that evokes summer light, tropical vibes, and bold self-expression. It's the kind of makeup that doesn't go unnoticed — which is why it's gaining traction on vacations, festivals, and evening looks.
Why we like the trend
- Statement look: It gives character to even the simplest outfit.
- Summer energy: Aqua and neon shades are associated with water, sun, and fun.
- Fresh alternative to smokey eyes: Instead of dark and heavy eyes, we play with something bright and light.
How to do it
You don't have to be a professional makeup artist to try the trend. Just remember a few tips:
Neon Lashes:
- If you don't have colored mascara, you can work with a wet eyelash and a neon-colored eyeshadow.
- Another trick is to only color the tips of your eyelashes for a more "editorial" effect.
Aquamarine Eyes:
- Apply aqua or turquoise shadow all over the eyelid for a bold effect or just on the lower eyelid for a more subtle version.
- Combine different textures: matte for intensity or shimmer for glow.
Keep it balanced: When the eyes "shout", leave the lips more neutral — with a soft balm or nude gloss.
Where did we see it?
From the runways of New York to the backstages of music festivals, the neon & aqua eye look is making a comeback. Celebrities and influencers are adopting it, uploading photos that instantly make the colorful trend go viral.
The vibe of 2025
The message is clear: Makeup is a game and a way of expression. Neon lashes and aquamarine eyes aren't just color; they're an invitation to put "perfect" aside and have fun with our face.
