1. Glazed Blush
After the recent success of glazed donut nails, it’s no surprise that this makeup look has became a massive trend on TikTok and Pinterest recently.
To achieve this look you have two options. You can use your typical blush – whether it’s peach, pink or coral – and give it a finishing glaze using a highlighter or you can use a cream and powder blush palette such as the Patrick Ta Major Headlines Double-Take Cream And Powder Blush Duo. Using a palette like this makes recreating this look extra effortless as all you need to do is put the cream blush over the powder blush. 😌💅
2. Earthy Eyes
This is a really glamorous yet also lowkey makeup look which is suitable for literally ANY environment.
All you need to do to recreate this look is incorporate earthy tones for your eye makeup, apply a few coats of a ‘volumising’ mascara of your own choosing and then you can finish off the makeup look with a softly coloured lipstick. It’s that simple. 💁♀️
3. Latte Makeup
This is such a chic makeup look which has recently taken the internet by storm.
To recreate this makeup look you will want to use a complimentary neutral blush and contour for your skin for a beautiful sun-kissed glow.
4. Soft Glam With Cat Eye Makeup
Soft glam is what many consider the ‘step up from natural makeup’ where you aren’t trying to make it look too natural but also don’t want any harsh lines or heavy makeup too.
To recreate this look firstly use a black eyeliner and mascara to create the cat eyes of your dreams then, opt for lighter (and softer) shades for your blush, lip colour and any of the other makeup products you like to use.
5. Soap Brows
In case you are not well versed in the online beauty-sphere here’s a quick FYI on the ‘soap brows’ trend: The soap brows trend involves using soap to shape brows more easily than your usual brow utensils and can prevent giving them a ‘shiny look’. If you are someone who has often tried to shape their brows but has failed to get their desired result, then you need to try this.
Although a lot of people online are making use of just about any soap bar for this hack, it is actually recommended that you use a ‘syndet bar’ (a soap bar alternative) such as a Dove Beauty Bar as this can prevent skin barrier disruption and irritation that traditional soap bars can cause due to their alkaline pH.
6. ‘No Makeup’ Makeup Look
This is a classic makeup look which will forever be in style and is all about making your makeup look natural (as well as accentuating your natural look).
You can achieve this look using the following steps:
- Give your skin a natural glow using a moisturiser/cream of your choosing.
- Use a soft blush sparingly.
- Lengthen your lashes with a natural mascara and an eyelash curler.
- Use a skin mimicking highlight which matches your skin tone such as the Westman Atelier Lit Up Highlight Stick (optional).
- Finally, to finish off the look apply a lip balm of your choosing or a subtle coloured lip tint such as the Rhode Peptide Lip Tint.
7. Dramatic 70s Eye Makeup
This dramatic blue eye makeup look makes for such a great party makeup look. 🪩🤭
To recreate this eye makeup look: Use a black eyeliner along with some blue and silver eyeshadow.
8. Classic Red Lip
A classic red lip is a go-to for many and is a timeless makeup look which never disappoints.
For this French chic makeup look, simply use a red lipstick and red/dark pink blush of your choosing for a cheerful & effortlessly pretty complexion.
9. Pumpkin Spice Chic
This is such a stunning makeup look for fall and is perfect for special occasions.
For this makeup look, you will want to do the following:
- Use a black mascara to lengthen and accentuate your eyelashes.
- Use a neutral eye shadow for above your eye and then an autumnal red or orange eyeshadow for under your eye.
- Finish the look with a darker lip stick and some gentle blush.
10. ‘New Year’s Eve Makeup’ Shimmery Eyes With Nude Lips
Shimmery eye makeup makes for the perfect go to look for your party/event makeup. 🎉✨
This makeup look is rather self explanatory, simply do your usual makeup and opt for a nude lipstick as well as an extra shimmery eyeshadow.
11. Flower Lip Art
If you want to do a little something for your makeup that is sure to make you stand out (in the best way possible 💁♀️😌) then this is such a great idea to recreate.
This is a lot easier to recreate than you might think as all you need to do is draw a general outline using a lip liner of the shape you want and then use 2 different lip sticks to ‘colour in’ your lips with preferably one lip stick that matches the colour of the lip liner you used to fill in your outer lips. 💋
12. Dusty Rose
Dusty rose makeup takes your typical rosy makeup look but makes it a little more toned down for an ultra-elegant complexion. 🥹💅
To recreate this makeup:
- Start off with your eye makeup using a warm brown for your base layer then going in with a brush to apply a dusty rose shade of your choosing.
- Next, to finish off your eye makeup create a wing shape to create an extra dramatic eye moment that will make your eyes truly pop.
- Do your usual concealer and foundation routine that fits your face best.
- Apply a blush and lip colour which match or complement the dusty rose shade you’ve used for your eye makeup.
