Graphic eyeliner and bold lips are something Taylor wears best, and over the years, we’ve seen her return to this classic combo for special events. The liner applied to the top and bottom lash line, the shimmering accent in the inner corners of the eyes, and a perfectly red pout prove why this look is just so good for any special occasion.

Soft, pink shadow applied to the eyelids with lipstick to match brings an ethereal vibe to Swift’s makeup look—perfectly paired with the floral embellished dress. The cheeks, which have a light flush, give her a healthy complexion—a look that’s never a bad idea. For naturally flushed skin, try applying Blancos Tinted Cheek Oil in Flush ($68) for a pinch of color that lasts through the day.

Swift’s signature bold lip—this time in a head-turning orange-red shade—never disappoints. When wearing bolder lipstick hues, shape the lips with a similar color lip liner first, apply your lipstick, then go in with the lip liner again for some final shaping and long-lasting color. Looking for vibrant orange-red lipstick? Try MAC Cosmetics’ Matte Lipstick in Lady Danger ($23).

A touch of smoky shadow and liner enhance Swift’s eyes, defining the shape and popping her blue tones beautifully. Creamy, nude lipstick with a touch of shine is the ideal accent for a more dramatic eye. We love everything about this look.

A touch of metallic bronze shadow underneath the bottom lash line is a small detail that makes a big impact, especially when paired with her signature liner and bold lips. This is a creative way to switch up your eye look without taking unnecessary risks. For an easy-to-apply metallic eyeshadow, try Surratt Beauty’s Souffle Eyeshadow in Ciel Dore ($48).

A deep crimson blood-red lip is something we often don’t see on Swift, but we absolutely love it. The tiniest bit of iridescent shimmer is applied in the inner corners of the eyes while the skin is sculpted, glowing, and healthy.

A touch of shimmering silver shadow on the lids paired with winged liner enhances the eyes by brightening them up. Raspberry pink lips and highlighted skin are the ideal counterparts to the eye makeup; the lipstick color is the perfect choice to wear with these shadow hues.

Rose gold metallic shadow on the lids with clean skin and a medium-toned rose lipstick give just enough fun to this understated look. A thin black line is applied on the upper lash line to add some definition, and brows are lightly drawn and shaped at the arches.

Bringing in a mod twist, this makeup look shows how matte eyeshadow with winged eyeliner is always a winning combination. The liner is applied in a wing shape that extends straight out toward the edges, and a pink matte lipstick plays into the matte textures used on the eyes. Genius.
