In the ever-evolving world of beauty, staying ahead of trends is key to achieving those enviable looks that turn heads. At BLOW, we understand the allure of fresh makeup trends, which is why we bring you the latest and greatest in beauty right to your doorstep. Whether you’re prepping for a wedding, a party, or simply want to feel fabulous, here are the top makeup looks everyone is obsessed with.
Natural Glow
One of the standout trends this year is the natural glow. Embracing a more minimalistic approach, it focuses on enhancing your natural features with subtle highlights and a dewy finish. This look is perfect for those who prefer a fresh-faced appearance that radiates health and vitality.
How to Achieve It
- Start with a hydrating primer to create a smooth base.
- Use a lightweight foundation or BB cream to even out your skin tone.
- Apply a liquid highlighter on the high points of your face—cheekbones, brow bones, and the bridge of your nose.
- Finish with a touch of cream blush for a natural flush and a swipe of clear or nude lip gloss.
Bold Lips
For those who love to make a statement, bold lips are a timeless trend that never fades. This year, vibrant reds, deep berries, and daring plums are all the rage. A bold lip can transform any look from simple to sensational with minimal effort.
Tips for a Perfect Pout
- Exfoliate your lips to ensure a smooth application.
- Use a lip liner to define and shape your lips.
- Choose a long-lasting matte or satin finish lipstick for bold colour that lasts.
- Blot with a tissue and reapply to intensify the colour and ensure durability.
Dramatic Eyes
Dramatic eyes are always a showstopper. This season, think smoky eyes, winged eyeliner, and lush lashes. Whether you're attending a sophisticated event or a night out with friends, dramatic eyes can elevate your look to new heights.
Steps for a Dramatic Eye Look
- Start with an eyeshadow primer to ensure your makeup stays put.
- Apply a neutral base shadow across your lids.
- Layer darker shadows in the crease and outer corners of your eyes for depth.
- Finish with a precise winged eyeliner and a few coats of volumising mascara.
Playful Colours
For the adventurous at heart, incorporating playful colours into your makeup routine can be incredibly fun. This trend encourages experimenting with vibrant eyeshadows, coloured liners, and even bold blush shades. It’s all about expressing your personality through a splash of colour.
How to Rock Vibrant Shades
- Choose one feature to highlight—either eyes, cheeks, or lips.
- For eyes, try a bright eyeshadow or coloured eyeliner.
- For cheeks, opt for a bold blush that complements your skin tone.
- For lips, go for a fun and unexpected colour like coral or fuchsia.
Skinimalism
Skinimalism is all about embracing your natural skin and using minimal products to enhance your beauty. It’s a trend that focuses on skincare as the foundation of your makeup routine, promoting a healthy, glowing complexion with minimal effort.
Achieving Skinimalism
- Invest in a good skincare routine to keep your skin healthy and glowing.
- Use a tinted moisturiser or a light foundation to even out your complexion.
- Opt for cream products—blush, highlighter, and bronzer—for a more natural finish.
- Keep eye makeup minimal with just a coat of mascara and a touch of brow gel.
Glossy Lids
Glossy lids are making a comeback, offering a fresh and youthful look that’s perfect for day and night. This trend involves applying a gloss or balm over your eyeshadow to give your lids a wet, reflective finish.
Creating Glossy Lids
- Start with a neutral eyeshadow base.
- Apply a clear or slightly tinted gloss over your lids.
- Keep the rest of your makeup simple to let your glossy lids shine.
