2021-Beauty-Trends

As much as we love to experiment with the hottest new trend, they’re not always easy to recreate yourself! Case in point – blue hair. Well, that’s not the case with these 2021 beauty trends, instead, they’re easy to do, seriously cute, super wearable, and they look great on everyone. Here are the beauty trends you’ll be wearing non-stop next year; from the haircut to the lipstick hue of choice.

2020 has been a crazy year, to say the least, and as a result, people are looking for escapism, glamour, and glitz, which is where this trend comes into play. A far cry from the WFH vibe we’ve been living in daily, studio 54-level glam along with diamonds, glitz, and sequins are going to dominate 2020. Think glitter lids, graphic liner, and lots of volume in the hair department. It’s fun, bold, and sexy.

Despite the fact that we’re going to be wearing masks for the foreseeable future, the red lip is back for 2021 and it’s sexier than ever. Not only was it seen all over the 2021 runways but it’s also taking off on social media. To keep the red lip on-trend for this year, pair it with flawless skin, lashings of mascara, strong brows, and sleek, sexy hair. It’s a serious vibe.

When opting for this trend, just be sure to use a long-lasting mask-proof lipstick. Smudging or stained teeth aren’t sexy! Check out our fave long-lasting formulas here.

Thanks to salon closures, many faux-blondes were forced to face their roots for the first time in years. As a result, instead of high-maintenance color options, people chose to play it safe and will continue to opt for easy-to-maintain hairstyles for 2021, or until salon opening hours aren’t in question. Although, we do love this au-naturale vibe. Plus, as it’s easier to maintain it’s also more cost-effective, which is just another reason natural hairstyles will continue to reign in 2021.

The natural hair movement has been gaining some major momentum over the past few years, but now, thanks to salon closures paired with the extra time we have to spend on our beauty routine, people are embracing their natural hair more than ever before.

This is going nowhere in 2021. In fact, expect to see celeb and influencers sharing their routines and slaying their natural hair more and more.

Skincare and self-care have ruled 2020 for obvious reasons. So naturally, after a full year of consistent skincare routines, people want to show off their results. Expect to see real, unfiltered skin everywhere.

In 2021, expect to see less full-coverage foundations with matte finishes in favor of tinted moisturizers, and natural skin finishes leading the way. We’re also loving that people are feeling more comfortable in their own skin.

Fierce Eyeliner

Now that face masks have become mandatory, eyeliner is coming in hard and will continue to rule next year (at least). However, it’s not simply a feline flick that It girls and makeup artists are slaying, but dramatic, bold looks that guarantee all of the attention is on the eyes.

From floating liner, neon hues, and graphic shapes, don’t be afraid to experiment. In fact, the fiercer the look, the better. Just be sure to read our liner guide to step up your eyeliner technique. Another essential? Finding a long-lasting formula – smudging and fading is not an option with a look like this.

80s Hues

If one thing is for sure, it’s that people are feeling nostalgic and taking inspiration from feel-good eras like the 80s. Think bright hues, like pinks, yellows, and oranges, as well as playful textures like metallic, shimmers, and wet lids. When it comes to slaying an 80s vibe, just have fun and remember there are no rules.
