Ready to be the star of the show? We’ve got you with superstar-level glam. Just reach for your fave vibrant shadow shade, like this one from MOONSLICE BEAUTY, dust it on your lids over some star stickers, and then bam—you have yourself a look that’ll slay all Pride month long.
If you’re looking to channel your inner celestial being this Pride, this "fairy dusted" eye is the literal blueprint for that ethereal, whimsical vibe. We’re obsessed with the way this look features a sunset-gradient lid paired with a dreamy pop of icy blue on the inner corners—but the real star of the show is the multi-dimensional glitter scattered across the lid and even through the brows. To recreate this fairy fantasy, blend your favorite pigmented shadows outward toward the temple, use a fine-point liquid liner in a deep plum for soft definition, and finish with a fluttery mascara like this one from TARTE™ to keep the look light and magical.
We are obsessed with this high-contrast look—it’s the perfect way to bring some edgy, sultry vibes to your Pride celebrations. The combination of vivid orange on the inner lid against a deep, smoky purple halo creates a sunset effect that really makes the eyes pop. To achieve this, start by prepping with a reliable concealer to keep your pigments sharp, then, use a blending brush like this one from LARUCE BEAUTY to diffuse the purple shadow all the way up to the brow bone. Finish off the drama with a volumizing mascara and a bold lip gloss to tie the whole look together.
If you really want to tap into your inner artist, this ’60s-inspired rainbow look is the one for you. We love how it utilizes lid space to create a graphic masterpiece that’ll stop people in their tracks—it’s pure makeup genius! To achieve this vibe, start by applying a white eyeshadow base on your lids to create a perfect canvas for the vibrant gradient. Then, take a fine-point liquid liner to trace out that dramatic, high-arched cut-crease. To finish it off and make the colors really pop, use a precise blending brush to melt the shades together and top your cheekbones with a shimmering highlighter for an extra glow.
This look by is proof that you can never have too much color when it comes to self-expression. We love how the vivid sky blue and sunny yellow tones are anchored by a sharp-as-a-knife wing, creating a balanced yet totally bold statement. To get this high-impact finish, try applying a bright eyeshadow primer first to ensure those pastel-neon hybrids stay saturated all day long. Then, take a precise blending brush to sweep the warmth toward your temples and finish with a glossy lip oil to complement the shimmery textures on the lids.
Instead of focusing color on the lid, this look concentrates a vibrant spectrum right beneath the lower lash line, creating a reverse-smoky effect that feels incredibly fresh and modern. To try this yourself, use a full-coverage concealer to brighten the under-eye area first, providing a clean base for the rainbow to pop. Then, take a small, dense brush to pack on your favorite neon pigments, blending them seamlessly into the tops of the cheekbones. It’s an unexpected way to wear your pride that highlights your features in a whole new light!
If you want your face to be a literal celebration of color, this starry look ditches traditional shadow for hand-drawn, multicolored stars that frame the eyes, creating a playful, artistic vibe that is sure to stand out. To master this detailed look, use a variety of colorful gel liners to sketch out your shapes, and don’t be afraid to mix and match shades for a true rainbow effect. Complete the fantasy by adding a few faux freckles across the nose and a coat of bright mascara, like this one from BENEFIT COSMETICS, to make your lashes pop against the cosmic art.
If you want to wear the rainbow in a way that feels soft and seamless, this Pride blush look is a total dream. To achieve this colorful flush, start by applying your favorite vibrant eyeshadows over your cheekbones, then layer a shimmering blush on top to give it that effortless, lit-from-within glow. Finish with a mauve-pink lipstick to keep the look sophisticated while letting your pride-filled palette take center stage.
We love how the rest of the face is clean and dewy, allowing the vibrant, multicolored lashes to really take center stage. To get this look, we suggest starting with a clear lash primer to help the colors grip and stand out against your natural lashes. Then, take various shades of vibrant liquid eyeliner or colored mascara and carefully coat small sections of your lashes from inner to outer corner. Finish with a tinted lip oil for a low-maintenance glow that lets your eyes do all the talking.
Meet the perfect high-fashion twist on the Pride rainbow. The transition from lime green to juicy yellow and vibrant red creates a sunset-inspired gradient that really makes the eyes pop against dewy skin. To achieve this juicy finish, we suggest starting with a multi-use pigment palette and applying the colors in a horizontal block shape across the lids. Then, use a dense blending brush to soften the edges while keeping the colors saturated.
We love how this look subverts traditional shadow by focusing the color beneath the eyes in a dramatic, bleeding-spectrum effect that’s guaranteed to turn heads. To achieve this artistic drip, use a rainbow of eye pencils to draw vertical lines from your lower lash line, then take a small blending brush to softly diffuse the pigment downward. For the ultimate finishing touch, place matching rhinestones along the lash line to give the look some 3D sparkle that catches the light with every move. Pair it with a volumizing mascara, like this one from BENEFIT COSMETICS, on your top lashes to keep the eyes looking wide and bright!
A rainbow dramatic cat eye is pure makeup genius in our book—this look takes skill but looks good on everybody. We suggest taking a colored liquid eyeliner or creamy shadow to trace out the shape of your wing first, then go in with your fave colors of the rainbow to fill in the rest of the wing. And you can’t forget the sparkles—adding them to the corner of your eyes and right underneath your pupil adds a sultriness to the look that’s mesmerizing.


This bold cobalt blue winged shadow on artist and jeweler Alex Boldea is stunning enough on its own, but the dazzling rainbow rhinestones take it to the next level. Not just literally, but also figuratively. They're not just pretty little gems, they're a symbol of unity, love, and the kaleidoscope of colors that make up the beautiful LGBTQ+ community. Together, this mesmerizing combo is unapologetically fabulous.


The chrome French tips, the perfectly contoured and defined lips, the iridescent purple shadow with eyeliner winged to the gods—we truly can’t decide our favorite part of Alyx Liu’s look. Looking for more ways you can add purple into your eye makeup repertoire? We’ve got a list of 28 purple eyeshadow looks that anyone can pull off.


This diffused winged eyeshadow look worn by makeup artist Cristian Leal invites you to spread your wings and soar into a realm of vibrant color and playful creativity. The dance of light blue and hot pink eyeshadows blend together like a harmonious symphony that is all about embracing the joy of self-expression and making a statement that's uniquely yours.


Get ready to embrace the power of pink with a beauty look that's equal parts sweet and striking! The soft pink eyeshadow sweeps across the lids like a dreamy cloud, and the next-level white cut crease is sharp enough to cut through conformity. Plus, the tiny pearls delicately placed along the cut crease add a touch of whimsical elegance that's fit for a queen, like our model Gia Gunn.


Dive into a world of vibrant hues and artistic expression, because this makeup look (worn by singer, songwriter, and stylist Khai St Lawrence) is as dreamy as a watercolor painting come to life! The alluring eyeshadow blends an array of hues like a masterpiece on your lids, the fuchsia lips bring on the bold, and the iridescent rhinestones are like droplets of stardust, adding a celestial sparkle that turns you into a living work of art to showcase your creativity and individuality.


Featuring a stunning gradient of bright blues and greens, this eye-catching creation is more than just eyeliner—it defies the laws of ordinary! The cut crease placement adds depth and dimension to model Khriss Alvarez’s eyes, while the lightning bolt-shape wing instantly electrifies your gaze.


Get ready to slay the Pride makeup look game with a pink-and-orange eyeshadow. The key to this high-impact color payoff is to lay down a solid base (we love the BARE MINERALS PRIME TIME® Eyeshadow Extender), then press your pink and orange shadow over top. Finish with a micro flick of black liner, a volumizing mascara, and you’re ready to let your eyes do the talking.
