Bold, Bright, And Colorful: The Return Of Maximalist Makeup
More of us are starting to crave for more color as bold makeup looks.
The "clean girl" look continues to be a favorite among beauty enthusiasts, and trendsetters like Hailey Bieber and TikTok influencers have shown us how to get this understated makeup look. While this type of makeup takes some effort to look effortless, it had everyone under its spell since it's in line with the quiet luxury and minimalist trend that has been around since the early days of the pandemic.
However, it seems that more of us are starting to crave for more color as bold makeup looks have gradually started appearing on social media. As we move away from the days of social distancing, it looks like beauty insiders are getting ready to start embracing bright, colorful looks, so you can expect to see different makeup tutorials on a fresh makeup style. Here's what you should be on the lookout for as maximalist makeup gears up for its long-awaited return.
Chrome-Inspired Eyeshadow
Despite ever-changing trends, beauty enthusiasts make it a point to keep metallic or glittery eyeshadow in their collection since this type of cosmetic can instantly add a touch of glam to any look. Popular brands such as Urban Decay and ColourPop, as well as Korean brands like Clio and Unleashia, have released several palettes dedicated to this type of makeup. Statement eyeshadow continues to be in-demand, and those who want to release private label cosmetics will do well to include this type of eye makeup in their cosmetic line, especially if they're planning to do so within the year.
Lately, there's been a lot of buzz about chrome-inspired eye makeup as stars like Hailee Steinfeld were recently spotted sporting gleaming lids. This makeup look, which is also known as the glazed eyeshadow trend, imparts a wet-looking shine on eyelids, which makes it a good look for summer. To achieve this look, apply primer first, then sweep some pastel shimmery eyeshadow all over the eyelids. Top if off with a sheer highlighter cream or stick to add extra shine.
80s-Style Blush
Beauty trends often come full circle, as evidenced by the return of 80s-style blush. This look calls for bright pink, purple, or orange blush to achieve a makeup style similar to that of the women in Robert Palmer's music video of "Addicted to Love." To get this look, apply cream blush to the apples of your cheeks and extend it to your temples. Follow with a powder blush in the same shade, then top with a little translucent powder to set.
Deep Lip Colors
After years of barely-there lipstick and gloss, it seems like we're heading into an era where deep lip colors will reign supreme. Think burgundy or a dark, vampy red lipstick paired with just a swipe of two of lengthening mascara. You can even go for black lipstick if you want a goth-inspired look and wear it with minimal or no eye makeup. A matte lipstick works for this makeup style, but for maximum impact, consider adding a coat of shiny lip gloss on top of your lip color.
