Adele’s Winged Eyeliner Is the Star of the “Easy on Me” Music Video Teaser — See Video

Ladies and gentlemen, Adele is finally dropping some new music. The singer-songwriter took to Instagram on Tuesday, October 5, to break the news with a clip from the music video for her upcoming song, “Easy On Me.” Like many of the singer’s famous hits, this one sounds like it’s gonna be a tear-jerker, but is it enough to smear Adele’s signature winged eyeliner?

In the video, her thick, dark eyeliner makes an appearance as she takes a glance into the rearview mirror of a car. Thanks to the close-up angle, it looks as if the liner was also paired with some long, elegant lashes, though it’s unclear if they’re false eyelashes or the work of some volumizing mascara. Adele’s eyeliner cameo may be short-lived, but it’s probably going to make another appearance or two in the full music video. 

Adele didn’t confirm whose artistic hand was behind her fabulous eye makeup in her post, but makeup artist Michael Ashton seems to be her go-to for all things glam. A look through his Instagram grid reveals that he’s done her makeup for a variety of occasions, such as the Golden Globe Awards and the Grammys. 

As of this post, there are only eight more days until the arrival of the video for “Easy On Me,” and we’ll definitely be looking out for each and every chic eyeliner moment once it drops (with our pack of tissues at the ready, of course).
