Each year brings us many great trends in the beauty industry, and this year is no exception. Just when you think that makeup trends and the beauty industry can’t get more innovative, people all around the world come up with new things or some old trends come back but with a twist. So, if you are in search of new inspiration and new looks, here are the best beauty trends of 2022.
Prismatic Pastel Trend
This year is all about colors and if you’re not afraid to wear some bright ones, then you have to try this trend. You can wear shimmery prismatic pastel shades on your eyes and they are gorgeous. Many experts suggest taking your favorite shimmer paste shadow and simply brushing it across your eyelids. Also, this look is perfect for the hot weather months of this year. Additionally, you can pair this look with a pastel pink or peach lip gloss and truly enjoy your refreshing makeup look.
Cat Eye Lash Lift
Fake eyelashes have been here for a while, and each year they get a new shape or twist. This year, cat eye lash lift is the most popular trend and it is here to stay. To get this look you can cut your false lashes in half and then curl the outer piece. Then, curl your natural lashes and apply mascara to lengthen them. Glue the fake lash piece o the outer portion of your eye and you will achieve this amazing lifted and flared cat-eye effect.
The 90s Thin Brow
The 90s trends keep coming back and this time it came for our eyebrows. And even though people today don’t like the 90s thin eyebrow trend, it is still back, but not as thin. And if you are afraid to make your brows thinner, there is another way to achieve this look. You can simply weave a brow gel in them and shape them together into a thinner line. You can do this instead of brushing them up and filling them in.
Microblading
Speaking of eyebrows, there are more trends here. Many people struggle with getting the shape or thickness of their brows as they want and that is why more and more people are joining the microblading trend. This simple treatment can get you any shape of eyebrows you desire, even the 90s thin brow if you are up for it. What’s more, you can easily find amazing microblading classes in NYC and master this skill so you never have to pay for treatment. Additionally, this trend sparked many great looks as well as great careers in the beauty industry.
Faux Freckle trend
Many people have started liking freckles and now we have a trend that supports this. It is a bit funny to call freckles a trend since they are something that people are born with, but the makeup trends are here to help those who don’t have them naturally. Freckles are being embraced and celebrated now and even though you don’t have them, you can “get” them easily. Simply dot a few cuties across the bridge of your nose with products like Freck OG and Freck Noire and you are good to go.
Neon Eyeliner
The year 2022 is all about colors, and neon eyeliner is a huge trend this year. Since it is so bold and strong, neon eyeliner itself can be a whole makeup look without any eyeshadow or blending needed. It may take you a few tries, though, to master this look and recreate a felt-tip liner, but you can easily master it by practice. Also, you should avoid tugging or skipping on your eyelid for a cleaner and more bold look.
As you can see the makeup and beauty industry can spark so much creativity. Each year has some bold new looks and trends and this year is no exception. With these few beauty trends, you can really shine bright this year or even put your own twist on some of these bold looks.
