Maya Jama Makes a Case For Floating Eyeliner

Never one to shy from a glamorous red carpet moment, cohost Maya Jama attended the 2022 BRIT Awards wearing one of the hottest makeup trends of the year: floating eyeliner (also commonly referred to "banana" eyeliner).

Jama's glam team pulled out all the stops for the night, creating a sharp cat eye with a floating feline flick in the crease. They paired her eye makeup with a straight middle-part style cascading down her back. Letitia Sophia was behind Jama's chic makeup moment with Brady Lea on her super-long, sleek hair. As for the outfit, Jama wore a standout black zig-zag set dress by Mônot, which was styled by Kyle De'Volle.

Jama's floating liner is particularly popular right now thanks to its regular appearances on the hit show "Euphoria." During the series, we've been treated to playful and eye-catching beauty trends, including dashes of fluorescent color, vivid reds and purples, lids covered in gems, and intricate gold-foil details. Taking possible inspiration, Jama's eyelids were washed with a golden shimmer and completed with the abstract floating eyeliner. This is a trend we've seen on celebrities from Lori Harvey and Zendaya to Addison Rae. Jama's take on the trend was completed with a smoky baby wing.

For the rest of the look, Sophia added a natural flush to the cheeks using Iconic London's Duo Blush in Coral Glow ($31, originally $37), adding the brand's Original Liquid Illuminator ($40) for a seamless finish. The whole look was finished with a neutral glossy lip. There is no denying that Jama looked magnificent, and we have no doubt part of that is down to skin-care prep using her brand MIJ Masks.

All in all, Jama served us a strong eye moment to set the night off with a bang. Read on to see all angles of her floating eyeliner at the 2022 BRIT Awards.
