37 Color-Crazy Cosmetics

From Hallucinogenic Makeup to Glitter-Encrusted Eyelids

— October 27, 2010 — Fashion
Working with makeup gets super fun as you give in to creativity and let your imagination run wild with fun and color-crazy cosmetics. With just the right tools and colors, you can transform any look into an intense and sensationally wild technicolor creation.

From hallucinogenic makeup to glitter-encrusted eyelids, these color-crazy cosmetics will definitely drive you wild!

Implications - As the recession forced fashionistas to tighten their budgets, consumers and fashion designers alike responded by paying more attention to cosmetics. Vibrant, avant-garde makeup lets individuals express themselves in a budget-friendly, temporary manner. Color-popping cosmetics inspire cheer, whimsy and happiness -- emotions we're all longing to feel amid the doldrums of a poor economy.
