2016 has been one interesting year so far in news, politics, and even fashion. Makeup is ever changing, and a great way to experiment with different looks. Here is a list of the Top 10 most interesting makeup looks of 2016 so far.
1. Clumpy Eyelashes
This is a look that Twiggy rocked in the 60s.
Yes folks, a makeup look that everybody used to avoid is now becoming a thing. This look is all about the mascara. The more mascara on each individual eyelash the better!
2. Bold Red Lips
This look is a very easy one to achieve. All you need is your favorite tube of red lipstick and you are good to go! Don't even worry about contouring your cheeks or mastering your wing eyeliner, just your bare, fresh face will do.
3. Glitter Bomb
Forget about that concealer for your dark under eye circles and just dab on some glitter! This look can be done using glittery eyeshadow and of course loose glitter! With this look you can be totally over the top and have an immense amount of glitter. Or you can be subtle and tone it down. The choice is yours! Be careful though with glitter near your eyes.
4. Highlight... and more highlight
This makeup trend is popping right now--literally! A highlight lifts up your face and gives it an element of brightness. Just a quick brush of highlight on your nose bridge, cheekbones and the arch of your eyebrows can instantly give you a more youthful
glow. It leaves you looking like a nice glazed doughnut.
5. Faux Freckles
This is a kooky makeup trend that is happening in 2016. Basically, it is drawing spots on your face using eyeliner. Ladies and gentlemen who are already born with freckles are blessed and don't have to worry about creating this look at all.
6. Blue Eyeliner
Blue eyeliner is becoming a trend slowly but surely in 2016. This makeup trend is simply putting on blue eyeliner on the top and bottom of your water line. The blue eyeliner is supposed to help your eyes pop a little more. It helps give your eyes a more defined and brighter look to them.
7. Eyebrows on Fleek
I don't really know when I started to look at people's eyebrows to see if they were on complete
fleekage, but it's a thing now. Everybody wants to have the perfect eyebrow. Shockingly, some people are going above and beyond, and actually getting their eyebrows tattooed on. Services to get your eyebrows tattooed can cost around $400 to $700,
and including touch up cost which can cost up to $300 more. I'm just going to stick with my $8 eyebrow pencil and brush, thank you very much!
8. Baking
To be honest, this was a big trend towards the end of 2015, but remains on this list because of the constant hype that surrounds it. Baking is a term that means taking
translucent powder on your face (preferably under your eyes and chin), letting it sit there for a couple of minutes, and dusting it off with your makeup brush. What this
is suppose to do is leave
you face with no creases from the foundation and concealer that you may have put on your face.
9. White Winged Eyeliner
This trend is a little different because everybody is so used to seeing or using black eyeliner. With this makeup trend, some people choose to smudge the ends of their wings while others just keep them sharp.
10. Gold
With gold eyeshadow and
bronzer you can warm up your skin. This is a very subdue and easy makeup look. Gold eyeshadow really helps to frame and give attention to your eyes. Just like a highlight, it gives your face an element of brightness.
Well, there you have it. So, which trend are you going to try?
