Which Eyeliner Style Are You Based On Your Horoscope?
It’s pretty clear we’re all different. But could those differences be attributed to our zodiac signs? For thousands of years, people have given pretty much credence to the time of year you were born and how it influences who you turn out to be. While this concept is usually applied to things like personality traits, we think it’s far more valuable for determining eyeliner styles. Seriously, how else are you supposed to know whether the cat eye or the double wing is right for you? If you need a little guidance in the makeup department, don’t fret — rely on your horoscope to lead you in the right direction when choosing how to apply your eyeliner.
1. Aries – Bold Cat Eye

As an Aries, you’re the head of the zodiac, which is apt because you’re also incredibly headstrong. You tend to be impulsive and stubborn, rarely bending to others’ will even when it would be far easier. With such a bold personality, you need a bold look to pair it with. That’s why we recommend an exaggerated cat eye with heavy lining on your lower lid. This look screams “powerful lady,” and it’s just the vibe you need when you’re taking on the patriarchy.
2. Taurus – Geometric Eye

Being a Taurus means you’re the best of both worlds. You like being calm and relaxed, but you also go through moods when you channel the bull and feel like rampaging through the world. This flip-of-the-switch behavior results in times where you’re romantic and supportive, but also stubborn and overindulgent. Don’t worry, we don’t think there’s anything wrong with treating yo’ self, especially when it comes to eyeliner. That’s why we recommend a fun, geometric eyeliner look. You get to indulge in fun while still keeping yourself grounded.
3. Gemini – Clean and Straight Eye

Ah, Gemini. You’re so incredibly resourceful and charming, but that often gets you into trouble. Sometimes, your boundless energy and intellectual prowess cause you to overthink things, leading to depression or being extremely judgemental. Or worse, it might cause you to start rumors and gossip that probably shouldn’t be spread. Because you often take on many personalities, it’s best to keep your eyeliner simple so you stay away from the drama. Try clean, straight lines to make your eyes pop.
4. Cancer – Double-Lid Wing Eye

Cancers have natural nurturing power, meaning they help connect others with their feelings and make them feel safe. They’re associated with the moon, which brings their creativity into full swing on good days. On bad days, you might catch them withdrawing into themselves and just wishing the world would go away. To embrace your artsiness, we think a fun double-lid eyeliner look could do just the trick. Bring it out into a wing and add some shading, and you’ll truly stand out in the crowd.
5. Leo – Colored Cat Eye

Leo, you’re a lion, so let’s hear you roar! You’re loud, proud, and never willing to back down. Your heart is always worn on your sleeve, which gives you a flamboyant nature that others don’t want to mess with. While this usually makes you kind and courageous, it can also come off as jealous and aggressive on your bad days. For your eyeliner, why not just let your personality shine through? Play with a colored cat eye that will make others understand your true nature.
6. Virgo – Feminine Eye

Virgos are all about helping others. They are certainly the most giving of all the signs, constantly using their dedication and hard work to inspire others. Unfortunately, this can also backfire on them sometimes, making them come across as preachy or critical. Overall, you’re probably a sweet and gentle person, so your makeup should reflect that. Opt for a light, feminine look when it comes to applying your eyeliner to match your personality.
7. Libra – Red Cat Eye

Libras are probably the most romantic of all the zodiac signs, and they certainly use this to their advantage. There’s a good chance you’re charming, lovable, and probably feel like you belong in the plot of a romantic comedy. Unfortunately, this kind of entitlement can appear as vain or delusional in some cases. Just in case you do ever get your wish and wake up in a romantic comedy, try a soft and dreamy cat eye look with a dash of red to play up your fantasies.
8. Scorpio – Heavy Lower Lid Eye

Strong, sexy, and dangerous, Scorpios encompass everything Latino. These magnetic people have big personas that carry them through life. Unfortunately, their trendsetting ways can often make them a bit jealous or vengeful around their loved ones. You’re probably already well-known for your intense eyes, so run with that theme by giving yourself bold and thick lines on your lower lid. This look goes well with whatever fashion trend you’re currently sporting.
9. Sagittarius – Blue and Green Wing Eye

As a Sagittarius, you’re fun, flirty, and dying to see what the world has to offer. Your ultimate goal in life is to find truth and balance, and you’re on a path to do that through contemplation and dedication. Unfortunately, these same traits can often make you come across as argumentative and reckless when trying out new things. Why not invoke your daring nature when it comes to eyeliner? Try a flirty, blue and green eyeliner wing to lighten the mood.
10. Capricorn – Natural Eye

Capricorns understand that life isn’t easy, and sometimes, your goals take time and a lot of hard work to achieve. They aren’t afraid of a challenge and won’t back down until they reach the finish line. Family is a top priority for Capricorns, but unfortunately, they also fall prey to materialism and pessimism. You’re not really a fan of spontaneity and experimentation, so stick with an eyeliner look that’s tried and true: a simple, natural line that follows the curve of your eyelid.
11. Aquarius – Double Cat Eye
Instagram @bearsgalaxy
Aquarius, you’re all about the water. Just like the waves of the ocean, you want to touch everything you. Your curiosity knows no bounds, and you’ll often bring people together in your search for the next big thing. Communication is your strong suit, but you can often become guarded and detached when it comes to expressing your inner feelings. Combat these issues with an eyeliner look that draws people to look into your eyes: a double cat eye.
12. Pisces – Corner Line Eye

Last but certainly not least is Pisces, whose head is often up in the clouds. If you’re a Pisces, you have an old soul that often absorbs the energy around you. You use this energy to provide wisdom and healing to your companions. Unfortunately, these good intentions can make you gullible and sometimes out of touch with the real world. Show off your dreamy nature with a bold and powerful diagonal corner line eyeliner look.
By matching your makeup to your horoscope — who knows? Maybe you’ll come into your own and take advantage of all the unique strengths you have to offer the world.
