Beauty, like fashion, tends to operate in cycles. One day, it will suddenly feel as though the pendulum has swung and a technique or style has swiftly transitioned from stylish to outr\u00e9\u2026 only for it to re-emerge, slightly altered but stronger than ever, 20 years later. Such is the case with eyeliner.<\/a> The micro-winged flicks beloved by celebrities in the late \u201800s made way for bigger, bolder eyeliner styles<\/a> during the makeup maximalist 2010s. Then came the hard pivot to clean-girl beauty, and with it, subtle mascara and even subtler eyeliner \u2014 and often, no eyeliner at all.<\/p>\n

And sure enough, as if right on cue, the eyeliner of the aughts has returned. Celebrities such as Laufey, Emma Stone, Billie Eilish<\/a>, and Olivia Rodrigo have hit awards show red carpets, premieres, and parties in micro-winged eyeliner. Extending barely past the end of the eye (and never further than the end of the brows), this eyeliner style can be flicked upward for a cat-eye moment, or drawn straighter out for a more modern vibe. It can be used to add a little drama to soft eyeshadow or \u201cno-makeup makeup,\u201d or to up the ante on edgy looks. The versatility is truly top-tier \u2014 no wonder it\u2019s back with a vengeance.<\/p>\n

Scroll on to see some of the best celebrity micro-winged eyeliner moments.<\/p>\n

A micro wing can make a major statement in a dramatic makeup look, too. Lined lower lashes and a razor-sharp wing look edgy yet elegant on Turner-Smith.<\/p>\n

This pairing of shimmery, wet-looking eyeshadow and micro-winged liner on Thompson<\/a> is super chic (and would make for a relatively easy DIY).<\/p>\n

Okay, so this might be more \u201cmid\u201d than \u201cmicro.\u201d Either way, an upturned wing with subtle eyeshadow and neutral lips is a fresh take on \u201860s-inspired makeup.<\/p>\n
