Unicorn eyeliner is 2016's latest mythical beauty trend

Turn your eyeliner into pure magic.

Okay, we know unicorn eyeliner may not sound like a practical, everyday look. But it actually sort of is.

The latest beauty trend, inspired by everyone's favorite mythical creature, can be as subtle or as fantastical as you want.

Basically, unicorn eyeliner is just a simple, sparkly, colorful eyeliner design.

Naturally, it pairs well with other unicorn beauty techniques, such as unicorn eyebrows, unicorn highlighter and unicorn horns.

And similarly to those other unicorn trends, unicorn eyeliner is less about following guidelines, and more about making yourself feel beautiful and magical with a rainbow-y, sparkly look.

And the best part? You probably already have everything you need to create the look at home.

Get doodling, unicorns.
