'Go There' Wednesdays: Kelis' Cobalt Blue Liner

This season, blue makeup is having a major moment — think denim nails, aqua eyeshadow and in Kelis' case, an electric shock of cobalt eye pencil. We're so in love with this look! Despite giving off an ultra-bold and edgy vibe, it's actually super-simple to create: all you have to do is trace your bottom lashline with a bold blue pencil, and smudge a bit with a Q-tip or your finger. Pair it with a matte orange lip and gold accessories, and voila! You're a rock star, girl. To create the look at home, try Make Up Forever Aqua Eyes Waterproof Eye Liner in Majorelle Blue ($17, sephora.com), a metallic royal blue hue; or Sephora Jumbo Eye Pencil in Blue 509Y ($6, sephora.com), a bright, true blue shade.
