Glitter is back
Is glitter back or did it never truly go away? Regardless, this magical fairy dust that can transform your look from ‘pah’ to ‘pow’ was big news at the Simone Rocha show where models lit up the catwalk with glitter-coated gazes. However, forward-thinking bloggers like the oh-so-colourful influencer @jeffreestar aren’t just getting bold with the twinkly eyeshadow, but completing the look with a slick of sparkle to the lips. Browse Beauty Bay for the liquid lipsticks from Jeffree Star Cosmetics or try the mighty MAC Cosmetics 3D Glitter from lookfantastic to get that high-level, high-shine look.
Lips in the limelight
Last year, Glossier paved the way for pared-back minimal makeup, but this year you can expect this to be accentuated with a head-turning pout. Fierce red lips paraded their way through Paris Fashion Week, from the coral hues by Lucia Pica at Chanel to the moody burgundies at Moschino - the more dramatic, the better! Why not aim for greater depth and a mix of effects by layering lipsticks a la IG star @violette_fr? Rihanna’s beauty line Fenty, available at Harvey Nichols, offers a brilliant range of striking shades, designed to get women of all skin tones puckering up in style.
Gloss and glow
Beauty blogger @namvo is the undisputed Instagram queen of glowing, dewy looks - she’s even coined the hashtag #DewyDumplings to showcase a gallery of plump and luminous skin! For 2019, add plenty of liquid highlighter to your cheekbones for an ultra shimmery glow and combine with gloss galore to add brightness and bounce to your look. Take inspiration from the mirror-like lips favoured by @thepatriciabright with an application of Bobbi Brown Crystal Lip Gloss from Fabled. Or boss the gloss look and add a lacquered finish to your eyelids with the Yves Saint Laurent Eye Gloss Smudger from Boots.
