Beauty Trends to Actually Try in 2021
1. Natural Dewy Skin
In 2021, we are expecting natural skin to take over. Not overly dewy, but also not matte. This new trend is basically adapting to your natural skin’s texture and keeping it the way it is.
Foundations, concealers, and powders that look just like your natural skin are popping up everywhere, and we’re all pretty excited.
It’s what all our skin has been waiting for!
On the bright side, this trend will really embrace your natural skin, including any sort of blemishes or fine texture on the skin.
It’s not about looking flawless; it’s about showing off your real skin, & also feeling beautiful the way you are!
2. Bright Eyeshadow
This year, it is all about the eyes, they own it!
​
Because we’re likely wearing much less on the lips this year (except for lip balm or a light glossy touch), makeup artists are going all out with the bright eye color, textures, and blends this year. My favorite take on a bright eye look is a bright wash of color across the lids.
Moreover, the trick to this look is always using a primer so the shadow sticks and making sure to blend just above your crease (much above your crease if you have hooded eyes or monolids).
The only thing that you have to wonder about is which eye shadow color will you have to try out next!
3. Fun liner
Thanks to the coronavirus, we now use masks, that cover up half of our face. Many makeup artists had then come up with ideas to be more creative with the things that they do, & also created many projects that were fun, unexpected takes on classic eyeliner will dominate come 2021. She suggests playing with glitter or mismatched colors, or moving things to the lower lash line. There are many new styles for the eye liner look. If you want to ease into the trend, stick with a classic cat eye, but swap black for a bold eyer liner color like this version on Ella Mai.
4. Funky Nails
Marble nails are a whole new trend right now! The sophisticated trend is deceptively easy to recreate yourself with the help of one of the many DIY videos online. Start with a single marble feature nail, or if you are feeling more confident, go for a full set.
​
Over the past year the French manicure has gone from polarizing to a red-carpet staple. For 2021 nail artists are having fun dressing up the classic mani, with everything from glitter to funky mushrooms, smiley faces, butterflies, and retro florals. While more intricate designs are best left to the pros, you can easily get the same vibes with nail decals.
​
Embrace the 90s with a holographic CD inspired nail. This eye-catching look is easily achieved with a special pigment made up of tiny reflective particles. Start with bare nails or your desired base colour, apply a layer of the pigment and finish with a clear sealing gel!
