The unicorn beauty trend started with rainbow highlights, high-shine highlighters, iridescent lipsticks, and other holographic, fantasy-inspired products. Then, rainbow foods like unicorn toast and unicorn lattes began taking over Instagram, and now, Starbucks has a limited-edition blue-and-pink Unicorn Frappuccino. But the unicorn trend we’re most excited about is unicorn workout gear. The trend’s eye-catching color scheme looks especially pleasing on sneakers, whether it be a pair of running shoes or a casual pair of canvas kicks.
