From glittery to bright: The Pride flag inspires so many makeup looks – these are our favorite products for dancing the night away.
Glitter always works! It also works well as a highlighter substitute on the cheeks. imago
It's that time of year again: Christopher Street Day is taking over the streets of Berlin. Under the motto "Never be quiet again!", hundreds of thousands of people are expected to take part in this colorful celebration for queer rights. And in addition to good cheer and loud music, the fashion scene is also sure to deliver plenty of bright colors, playful prints, and glitter—in short, everything fun.
The rainbow flag, designed by artist and activist Gilbert Baker in 1979, not only represents diversity, acceptance, and pride in the LGBTQI+ community —each of the vibrant colors also has its own meaning. So, why not use them to your advantage and transform them into an exciting makeup look? These are our beauty favorites.
Red lipstick is and remains a classic – and yet it's anything but boring. On the Pride flag, red represents life, energy, and passion. Chanel's "Passion" shade captures exactly that: a rich red that immediately catches the eye.
Perfect for anyone who likes to put the focus on their lips in their makeup, especially if the rest of the look is rather simple. A bold red can do a lot. It looks elegant, but not old-fashioned. And it's a bit seductive, too. Above all, it adds attitude—that little extra touch of self-confidence. Whether during the day at Pride or at a party in the evening: red works.

Body spray from Sol de Janeiro “Cheirosa 62” from around 18 euros via www.flaconi.de Sol de Janeiro Green represents nature, and so the green eyeliner from Dolce&Gabbana brings a breath of fresh air to makeup. Its fine tip allows for precise application, for example, discreetly along the lash line or as a striking wing for a more daring look.
The smudge- and humidity-resistant formula also ensures that everything stays put. The shade works particularly well on brown or blue eyes – especially when paired with a warm, shimmering eyeshadow in gold or bronze. Styling-wise, the look can also be combined well with eye-catching earrings, such as gold hoops.

This can be achieved particularly beautifully with Essie's "Cloud Gazing" nail polish. For more durability, simply seal with a top coat, or if you're feeling fancy, you can add a glitter polish. This also works at the last minute.
