Even during a lockdown, beauty can bring moments of joy to your day, whether you’re looking to relax or assert yourself creatively. The year is nearly over, but it is never too late to begin practicing self-care and making more time for yourself. Whether it’s doing lazy weekend chores with a hair mask slathered on your hair, or trying out a new skincare ingredient while binge-watching the latest Netflix hit series; there’s a lot of experimenting to be done. Here are the top 8 beauty trends to try in 2021.
Mood Enhancing Beauty Products
Civilizations have employed cosmetics for a variety of purposes throughout history, including enhancing attractiveness, participating in religious ceremonies, and maintaining good health (hello, sunscreen!). The act of applying cosmetics is becoming increasingly vital in today’s world. Beauty products can bring some normalcy and light into even the darkest of situations. While it won’t solve all of your problems, doing your makeup can lift your spirits and give you a sense of power, control, routine, and relaxation.
Skinimalism
When it comes to skincare, you may have long believed that more is better: the more aggressive serums you use, the more radiant your skin will be. Excessive skin care efforts, just like enjoying life to the fullest always misses the mark and can leave a path of destruction in the shape of a damaged skin barrier, redness, irritation, and, in some cases, acne. This is where Skinimalism enters the scene. It’s all about taking a step back, embracing the power of multipurpose products, and committing to a more sustainable (and often less expensive) beauty routine in the end.
Abstract Nails
Abstract nails are already witnessing increased searches and popularity in 2021, and we can’t get enough of the personality-packed trend, especially when it seems like a journey down memory lane. The distinctive swirls, dots, and hues exude a strong retro vibe. From groovy swirls to mod-inspired designs, the greatest of the 1960s and 1970s can be found right at your fingertips. The abstract nail style features a lot of negative-space detailing and is completely adaptable to your mood.
Lashes That Make a Statement
If you’ve always wanted to try out extra-long lashes but were afraid you’d look silly, now is your chance. This trend has resurfaced in a big way. It’s also possible that it’s not as horrible as you imagine. We’ve come a long way from wearing unnatural-looking lashes to mink lashes that complement our features. As a result, don’t be afraid to experiment with different eyelash extension patterns as they can complement your appearance while also bringing out your inner prima-donna. If you don’t want to wear falsies, you can get the same effect with mascara and a few lash-lengthening tricks.
Graphic Eyeliner
Eyeliner can be used on the water lines of the eyes, above the upper lashes, below the lower lashes, or both. Its main purpose is to make the lashes look fuller, but it can also call attention to the eye and affect the form of the eye.. as yet another out-of-the-ordinary makeup trend emerges, it’s clear that 2021 is the year for daring makeup looks. During the midst of the pandemic last year when people were trying to use makeup while staying safe wearing respirator masks is the same time graphic eyeliner made its debut. This makeup look has quickly become popular and is used by beauty gurus to express their creativity. There are no limits to what you can do with this trend, from colored liners to cool designs, it’s easy to express oneself.
Choppy Eyebrows
Every now and then, we all feel too lazy to groom our brows. Don’t worry, because this trend is ideal if you have trouble doing your brows. People used to shave their brows into a thin strip, but that is no longer the case. Nowadays, the bushier the better, and trends continue to evolve to accommodate this style. The choppy brow is the newest trend, which involves brushing them upwards to give them a light and youthful appearance. If necessary, fill them in with a brow pencil before brushing them to give them a fuller appearance.
The Bold Lip
Lipstick, whether with or without a mask, never goes out of style because it is essential to completing a makeup look and can change your mood. People are about to rock their favorite bold lip colors all year long, from classic red to trendy burgundy. Look for matte lipsticks if you don’t want your lipstick to smear on your mask. It’s less prone to smudges than glossy finishes.Apply the correct lip balm under your lipstick to keep it moist and colorful for a superior base and longer wear. Use hand sanitizers before touching your lips to kill infection causing microorganisms.
Liquid Lipstick
You spend what seems like an eternity priming, padding, and precisely applying your bold lipstick, only to have it stain, transfer, or fade completely by the time you finish your morning cup of coffee. Does this sound familiar? Liquid lipsticks are smear and kiss-proof, which is one of the key reasons they are the ideal lipsticks. Liquid lipsticks are the way to go if you want to go a little bolder with your lip color. They’re designed to be long-lasting, so the color won’t just not transfer onto your cocktail glass, but it won’t even kiss off on your man’s lips.
Conclusion
