guyliner
Emo eye makeup
Guyliner is eyeliner worn by men, especially in rock, goth, or emo subcultures.
The word playfully highlights that cosmetics traditionally associated with women cross gender lines: His guyliner gave him that rock star look.
The term emerged in the early 2000s as male celebrities made the look more visible.
