WITH THE stressful hustle and bustle of life, many turn to having a fun night out to relieve stress. Part of the fun of going out, of course, is doing your makeup and picking an outfit that you think you’ll look best in as you dance and drink the night away.
If you’re bored with your current makeup routine and want to try something new – and perhaps a bit more fun – there are many products out there that you can use to spice up your look. Here are some to help you get started.
- Colored eyeliner and mascara combo
If you’ve already perfected the winged eyeliner look and are trying to find something with a little more spice to it, why not try investing in colored eyeliner?
Many brands sell colored eyeliner in both pencil and liquid form, so you have your pick of the litter when it comes to this product. Play around with different colors, or match them to your outfit to bring everything together.
To elevate this pop of color even more, you can pair the look with colored mascara as well.
Some products you can try out are Colourpop’s BFF mascara, which comes in different shades like red, purple, and blue. For eyeliner, NYX Cosmetics offers both liquid and pencil liners, available in all the colors of the rainbow.
- Glow-in-the-dark face paint
Be the belle of the ball at your rave party by using glow-in-the-dark face paint to stand out while you party.
What’s great about this product is you can do, quite literally, whatever you want with it; its use isn’t limited to just your face. What’s stopping you from adding designs to your hands? Your chest? Your legs? Your body is your canvas, and you’re free to treat it as such.
Many makeup brands also sell neon or glow-in-the-dark products, as well. Brands like Medusa’s Makeup and Camera Ready Cosmetics offer different types of UV and glow makeup that are perfect for achieving this fun, flashy look.
- Hair mascara

If you’re looking for a product that’s going to keep your bangs in place no matter how many shots you take, and no matter how much you jump as you sing along to the DJ playing “You Belong With Me,” try investing in hair mascara.
Hair mascara is also great for slicked-down looks; if you want to keep flyaway hairs from popping up here and there, this product is a quick fix to that. It’s also a great alternative to hair spray because, unlike the latter, it doesn’t make your hair sticky and hard to the touch.
Some well-recommended brands to try are &honey’s Matomake Stick for your bangs, and Narka’s Hair Mascara for a slicked-back look.
- Face and body glitter
Want something cutesy, demure, and mindful? A simple pop of glitter is sure to turn heads.
You can put this quite literally anywhere; while the body and face are the most common, there are others that powder glitter into their hair, as well.
If you’re looking for something subtle, LUSH sells cotton candy and bubblegum-scented body glitter that adds a bit of shimmer to your skin. Brands like Unicorn Snot, Projekt Glitter, Lunautics, and many more are all great if you want something more eye-catching.
For glitter eyeshadows or face glitter, you can try brands like GirlCult, Urban Decay, MAC, ELF, or Danessa Myricks.
- Duochrome / multichrome highlighter
A great and easy way to elevate your makeup look is to buy a highlighter that doesn’t just give off your typical, white shimmer.
Invest in duochrome or multichrome highlighters, which offer a finish wherein the colors of the product change color depending on the angle which you’re viewing them from.
You’ll definitely get some oohs and ahhs from all the makeup aficionados at the club, and it adds a unique touch to even the simplest of makeup looks.
Some products you can try for this are the Anastasia Beverly Hills Moonchild Glow Kit, Kaleidos Makeup’s Space Age Highlighters, and the FlowerKnows Midsummer Fairytales Liquid Highlighters.
