Making it to the end of 2022, you may want to refresh your cosmetic kit for the most significant makeup trends of 2023. There is something for everyone when gazing into the crystal ball since high-impact finishes are paired with low-maintenance staples. The new year marks loads of opportunities to try out and experiment with new looks by going platinum blonde, creative and crazy nail art, hairstyles and vibrant colour cosmetics. If you want to know the beauty trends that will be popular in 2023, hang on here:

Blush Draping

The blush trend has been hot and heavy for a while and isn’t likely to fade any time soon. Although blush has long been a favourite staple, placement is everything. The year ahead is poised to see a resurgence of a yesteryear’s favourite – the 70s trend. These blush draping involving brighter-toned diffused blushes lift cheekbones, following up to the temples, giving an editorial and monochromatic impression. For a cohesive C-shape finish, you may even blend your blush with a blusher into the crease of your eyes.

Embellished beauty
Sparkles and shimmer galore! Sparkle and embellishments like rhinestones and gemstones have been the trend for a long, and it is still going strong. These embellishments embody an eccentric sense of individuality and are the perfect vices to elevate your look as they give any look a subtle touch of sparkle. Refrain from being precise with your stones or getting each eye to match the other perfectly.

Use them to make a solid statement portraying your inner diva. You can use it around your eyes, as embellished freckles, or to contour your lips for a striking effect. You can pair them with bold black eyeliner. The gems render a stardust-like feel while remaining elegant and classy.

Sensual Siren Eyes

This winter, the siren eye will be prevalent with its cool-toned, smokey eye touch. Every eye shape receives a seductive boost from siren eyes and demi-lashes without seeming too contrived. For the ultimate glam effect, pair with fake freckles and glossy lips.

Frosted, Glossy Lips

After much experimentation with icy blue frosted eyes, it is suspected that the trend will be all about the lips with the ’90s trends return. The frosted glossy lip and the iconic brown lip liner and balm looks offer your lips an enviably comfortable, lived-in feel. Besides nourishing balms and high-impact lip glosses, plumping oils are the latest must-haves to clock in heavy-duty moisturisation while teasing your pout with the barest slick of colour.
