ICYMI, we’re in the midst of hot girl summer so it's the time to live your best life and embrace everything you’ve got. To help you channel your inner main character through eye makeup, we’re advocating for bold, statement-making looks, funky eyeliner and colorful lids. The last show-stopping makeup look on our summer bucket list? Iridescent eyeshadow. Ahead, we rounded up five inspo-worthy iridescent eyeshadow looks to try ASAP.

Like a Lightshow

Let your skin dance like the Northern Lights with this iridescent eyeshadow look that spills color effortlessly from the eyelids down to the cheekbones.

Serving Style

Nothing says bold quite like a spicy red lip and holographic eyeshadow. Get the look with the Valentino Rosso Valentino Refillable Lipstick in Red My Mind.

Glisten in Gold

If eyelids saturated in color aren't your style, go graphic. We’re obsessed with this glistening gold graphic cut crease look by @safiyeh.uddin.jewelry.

Day Dreamer

For the ethereal glow of your dreams, paint your lids with shimmery pigment. Recreate the look with the Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeshadow in Freak, Bad Seed and Free Bird.

Lined Lids

Make like @kathleenlights and line your lids with a purple iridescent crayon, like the NYX Professional Makeup Jumbo Eye Pencil in Donut. Then, dab on purple sparkles for a look that shimmers when it catches the light.
