    The look

    • Livewire eyes lined with bolts of turquoise blue, yellow, lime or flamingo.
    • Sheer statement lips in tropical shades of tangerine, coral, blue-based fuchsia and hot hibiscus red
    • Neon fingernails and fluorescent fireworks on perfectly pedicured toes
    • Still disowning photographic evidence from 1986? Tweak the flashback neon trend with electric-but-not-quite-psychedelic hues that rock year in, year out. Think hottest pink, purple, sunny red and bright canary yellow
    • It's all about feature focus. Go for eye-popping shadow or amplified lips, but bright nails work with both

    Neons instantly brighten up the face! This is so Lady Gaga ^^

    Yohanna 1 Jun 2016 10:10 PM

    they really brighten the face for sure, and are gorgeous. No like Gaga though, she always look scary as hell

    carmsy 7 May 2008 10:44 AM

    Gee i wish i could get away with wearing makeup like that it looks so nice yet not out in public unless you want to be centre of attention

    FabuQueen 29 Apr 2008 5:38 AM

    pretty colours and look nice on the models, but I wouldn't want to look like that on the streets, and definitely not at work!

    maryls 28 Apr 2008 7:48 AM

    Been there done that (in the 80's) might leave this look up to today's crowd

    Reiyel 27 Apr 2008 3:03 AM

    Oo, pretty poppy colours. Probably not for someone just starting out with experimentation, though, heh..XD

    nunya 22 Apr 2008 4:46 AM

    pandork 20 Apr 2008 6:46 AM

    sumsta 14 Apr 2008 5:07 AM

    The face of australia eye colour pot in Quartz is gorgeous! I have it.

    Livvie 7 Apr 2008 7:34 AM

    I love the blue, how awesome! Not so keen on the weird yellow/black design or that intense pink lipstick though...

    Billywig 24 Mar 2008 5:29 AM

    I love this style of make-up, for those that are confident enough to pull it off. Would be great fun for a night out ;) xx

    tahnee 15 Mar 2008 10:38 AM

    Miss Em 13 Mar 2008 9:10 AM

    beautiful colours

    glossqueen 23 Feb 2008 12:55 AM

    They look pretty, but I can't see myself going for this look. I've lived through the 80's once already.

    cuteeyes 19 Feb 2008 9:52 AM
