Gigi Hadid Rules the Beach in the Riskiest Neon Makeup Shade Yet

For most, Grecian day dreams center on palettes of rich cobalt blues, bright whites, and sandy taupes. But for Gigi Hadid, a Mediterranean holiday is simply another excuse to step outside the beauty box—this time with a striking application of neon pink at eye level.

Makeup artist Patrick Ta shared a behind-the-scenes capture of the super s latest look, which took its cues from her vivid, bubble gum-colored evening dress. While roseate-turned-neoprene pink may not scream summer at first blush, a second glance solidifies it as the ideal scene-stealing seasonal hue—after all, the psychedelic accent is nothing if not playful, its warming tone further accentuating a bronzed complexion achieved from time spent under the the sun. Even better: Ta refused to keep the color within confines, instead allowing the pressing of pink to diffuse freely, coated over lids and edged beneath the lower lashline, before extending into a hazy wing. The lesson? To take your wash of bronzer up a notch, reach for pots of color bright enough to outshine even the most radiant rays.
