2021 Billboard Music Awards: Graphic Eye Makeup Is the Night’s Biggest Beauty Trend

Dixie D’Amelio, one of the ceremony’s presenters, delivered her own take on the graphic black cat-eye, as well. Hers has layered lines around the outer corners of her eyes, which are dotted with small crystals. 

If you’ve got a steady hand with liquid eyeliner, then this look should be a breeze to recreate at home with a little practice — otherwise, you can use eyeliner stickers to make a big statement in seconds, flat. May we recommend Face Lace’s selection?

Rapper Saweetie, meanwhile, delivered a more classic take on the black cat-eye — it might not be as graphic, but those wings are so big, sharp, and clean that they’re more than deserving of an honorable mention. A high-quality black liquid eyeliner pen like Maybelline New York Hyper Easy Liquid Eyeliner is all you need for this look.

If you’ve ever wondered whether black eyeliner will go out of style, the answer is no. Never. Not even a chance. The Billboard Music Awards’ looks are only a small slice of evidence. So don’t underestimate all those seemingly plain felt tips and gel crayons in your kits, folks.
