Make up hits of the year

This year Makeup is all about experimenting with bold colors and testing wet looks. Those neutral tones and no-makeup makeup looks are put aside by vibrant shades on the eyes and glossy lips. 

Both makeup products and techniques of application have gone through a period of growth, now you don’t have to play safe or remain in your boundaries because these makeup trends are out to play and test your limits.

Glass skin

This one will surely dominate all other trends this year. Take out your most hydrating primers and strobe creams to get the glass skin effect. Also, incorporate the use of hyaluronic acid in your skincare routine for an extra hydration boost.

Primer and strobe cream are a must for this finish. Use sheer foundation and apply where needed and same goes for the setting powder. Finally use the finely mild highlighter to achieve the dreamy finish.

Floating eyeliners

You don’t have to trace your lash line anymore because liners will be freely floating this season in neon and other daring colors. This chic trend is an official hit this season.

Shimmery smokey eyes

Put some metallic finish brown or black, blend with a light hand and rock with a neutral lip and extra bronzer.

Glossy/wet look A bit of gloss here and a bit of gloss there. Glossy eyes and lips is the new chic trend from catwalks to fashion magazines and we are not talking about your regular glow but dreamy wet looking eyes, lips, cheeks and brows.

Get the look.

The real star of this look is an eye gloss and a lip gloss. Choose the product that gives a glassy-wet finish and apply on eyes, lips and highest points on your face. Remember that your goal is glossy and not greasy.

Accent inner- corners

We all have seen shimmer in the inner corner to brighten up the eye look but this year pop in the tear duct on minimal eyeshadow is the talk of the town. 

Get the look

Make sure that you start with the dewy skin, add a color of your choice (preferably bold like bright pink or neon) in the inner corners and let it be the highlighting moment of your eye look.

Try out these looks and see if it’s a hit or a miss for ya!
