Let’s find out for ear sake. One thing is for sure, you just can’t look away from it.

Ear Makeup On Fashion Runways

At the Paris Fashion Week, in the year 2014, ear makeup trend became a new thing on the fashion radar. It was fashion designer Anthony Vaccarello who made his models walk down the runway with graphic and inky lobes that were drawn with black liquid liner.

Since then, British make-up artist Pat McGrath went ahead and created a silver statement ear for Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2016 at Paris on October 7, 2015 while make-up artist Yadim did full-on glitter ears for the Opening Ceremony.

You might want to ask how the ear makeup is done – by dipping the lobe in a single color. This makes the makeup technique look more like jewelry and less of an art project.

The Inside Of Ear Makeup

Is there anything rocket-sciency about how to do ear makeup? Thankfully none. Ear makeup is just getting creative with your usual makeup.

All you have to do is outline the ear using an eye pencil in rich hues such as cobalt. Or keep it on a subtle tone with a hint of shimmer on the ear lobe spot you’d like to focus on.
