The Look: Cherry lips and bold liner
Beauty Inspiration: Monami Frost @monamifrost
Inspired by the fiery locks of our beloved Josh Dun, this look will have you feeling red hot. Start by creating a winged eye with a bold red liner, and then define the wing with a black liquid liner following the same line. Finish off the look with a bright red lip.

Primp and polish like a true Victorian lady in this sophisticated look. For the eyes, pop on a pair of dramatic false lashes topped with two coats of mascara. Brush a generous amount of warm pink blush onto your cheekbones in an upward motion. Finish with a glossy peach lip.

Black Veil Brides have been known to sport some pretty amazing makeup themselves, but their dark look may be a bit too daring for most to try. Instead, go for a toned-down version. Channel your inner Andy Biersack with matte black lipstick, big lashes and full brows.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer
The Look: Bold colors with a twist
Beauty Inspiration: Hanna Beth @Barbiebeth
Get a little colorful with a look inspired by the cover art for Never Shout Never’s most recent studio album, Black Cat. The focus here should be a bold, matte lip in any bright color. Keep your eye makeup minimal—use black eyeliner on your top lid and mascara on top and bottom lashes. Finish off the look with a flash tattoo if you’re feeling adventurous (Hanna Beth has her own line of them!)

The Look: Light, fun and polished
Beauty Inspiration: Amanda Hendrick @msamandahendrick
This look is all about staying light and fun, just like the music from our favorite boys in 5SOS. Create a natural but polished look using peachy pink on the apples of your cheeks, and a neutral tone on your lips. Two coats of mascara on your top and bottom lashes will pull the look together.
Get the look:
ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip in Midi
Clinique High Impact Mascara in Black
The Look: Berry lips with a cat eye
Beauty Inspiration: Jade the Libra @jadethelibra
You’ll be knocking over tables with this look (just like frontman Oli Sykes). For a touch of drama, cover your lids with a bronze shadow with a bit of sparkles and top it off with a thick winged liner. Complete the look with deep berry lipstick on your pout.
