3 Stunning Pride Makeup Looks  

The rainbow on the Pride flag symbolises both the diversity and unity of the (LGBTQIA2-S) communities. That’s why we have selected these rainbow-based colourful Pride makeup ideas to establish the importance of pride month and the people belonging to the community.    


1. Rainbow liner  


Creating rainbow-inspired wing eyeliner is one of the colourful Pride makeup ideas that you can opt for this year’s parade. Rainbow liner is a classic eye makeup look idea that is simple yet packs a punch.  


Step 1: Start by using primer on your lids, as this will help your eye makeup last longer.


Step 2: Dust a very light-coloured eyeshadow across your lids. Start by using some blue eyeliner and draw a line from the inside of your eye.


Step 3: Next, with some yellow and eyeshadow continue tracing your liner. Pro tip: If your green and yellow eyeshadow aren’t pigmented enough, spray a brush with some setting spray and pick the eyeshadow on a wet brush. This will help deliver more pigment to your eyes.


Step 4: To add red, orange and purple colours to the rainbow-inspired liner, you can use some lipstick and apply it to your eyelids with the help of a fine brush.


Apply each colour one after the other and you’ll have a simple Pride makeup look for the eyes.  


2. Rainbow eyeshadow 


Looking for classic Pride makeup ideas? Create a rainbow on your eyes and ace the Pride makeup look. Since makeup gives you the freedom to experiment with array of colours, you can play around and create the best Pride makeup look. This look may be a little time-consuming, but the results are truly worth it.


Step 1: After prepping your eyes, start your rainbow eyeshadow look by buffing a brown eyeshadow across your lids. This will help create an even base to work with.


Step 2: On one eye, work with blue, purple and red colours. You can use your eyeliner or lipsticks to get the colour on your lids. Apply one shade at a time and blend it well.


Step 3: For the other eye, apply yellow, red and orange in the same fashion. Dividing the colours will help each colour to pop up and make it easier for you.  


 Step 4: After blending the colours well, fill in your eyebrows for a defined look. Next, use some kajal to line your waterline. As a finishing touch, apply mascara to get voluminous lashes. With this, your eyes are ready with the perfect rainbow eyeshadow look.  


3. Rainbow-coloured hearts on the cheekbones  


Pride makeup is all about having fun as there are no rules to it. So, if you aren’t someone who likes to experiment with Pride makeup ideas, create rainbow-coloured hearts on cheekbones. It is a great way to add a touch of rainbow to your look.


Step 1: Start your rainbow makeup look by doing your face makeup as usual. Before applying blush and highlighter, use a super black kajal and trace out a heart on the highest point of your cheekbone.  


Step 2: After drawing a perfect heart on your cheeks, start filling in each colour of the rainbow in it. You can blend each colour slightly to make the rainbow makeup look appear seamless.


Step 3: After you are done blending, apply some glitter on top of each heart. This will add the right amount of bling to your look.
