From social media feeds to the biggest runways in the world, every new year brings new beauty trends we simply have to try out and 2020 is no different. But unlike the last few seasons, it seems like this year is going to be all about fun, playfulness and over-the-top looks that allow you to express your personality through glossy textures, daring shades, and endless sparkles. Here are some of the biggest beauty trends you’ll be seeing everywhere in 2020:

Instead of the classic pink, nude and blush shades that seem to be an all-time spring favorite, this year is going to be all about dark, vampy lipsticks that truly make a bold statement. From deep reds and dark purples to brown and even black shades, these daring lipstick colors beautifully complement every skin tone and look absolutely gorgeous in contrast to neutral and pastel clothes, representing fun and modern twist on traditional spring and summer look. Whether you opt for a timeless cat-eye or a completely neutral eye look, don’t be afraid to go all out with your lipstick choice this year.

Instead of the structured, polished and perfectly shaped eyebrows we’ve been seeing all over Instagram during the last couple of years, 2020 is all about flaunting your natural brows. Achieving the perfect brow look this year requires nothing more than plucking a few stranded hairs for a cleaner look, and combing through your eyebrows with a clear brow gel to keep them in place all day long. Considering how painful and time-consuming it is to get your brows professionally groomed, this trend comes as great news for every woman who likes to invest in her appearance.

Having big, full lips is one of the biggest hallmarks of femininity and sex appeal, and this year it’s finally time to let your beautiful lips shine in all of their voluptuous glory. However, if you’re not naturally blessed with such luscious lips, there’s truly no need to worry. A rising trend in 2020 is getting gorgeous lip fillers that give you the fullness and volume you need while keeping your lips shiny and moisturized from within. From the biggest beauty influencers to our favorite celebrities, it seems like everyone is opting for full, luscious lips and getting effective fillers this year.

It seems like the motto for 2020 is: if you’re not making a statement by sticking something on, then you’re probably not doing it right. Whether you decide to embellish you under-eye with a nail sticker,
paste a couple of star-shaped patches onto your eyelid or dot on a colored gem in the corner of your eye, adorning your eyes with sparkling embellishments is the newest decade trend. While there’s no right or wrong way to experiment with eye stickers, it might be best to keep your eye makeup neutral, or even bare, before adding on some sparkle and shine for this statement-making look.

If you want to experiment with new and interesting eye makeup looks, but aren’t yet ready to try out stickers and sparkles, the white eyeliner trend is the perfect way of updating your everyday makeup – it’s fresh, exciting, and it feels completely unexpected, without being too over the top. To try this fun 2020 trend, simply choose a creamy and opaque white eye pencil, and use it to carefully line your top eyelid, going as close to the lashes as possible, then add a cute flick for an interesting take on the classic cat-eye.
6. Beautiful porcelain skin
Although flawless skin isn’t really a trend, thanks to big brands and celebrities who more often tend to choose the natural route, as luminous and dewy skin have become a big trend for 2020. This year, it’s all about flawless, radiant complexions that simply shine from within. In order to achieve this glowing look, the most important thing is to keep your skin nourished and hydrated before applying your base. Then, opt for sheer and more natural foundations or tinted creams that even out your skin tone, before finishing your base off with a stunning liquid or balm highlighter that will help you get that naturally gleaming look.
From the subtle glamour of natural beauty to bold and daring experimental looks, it seems like 2020 beauty is truly all about expressing yourself and doing whatever makes you feel gorgeous, strong and empowered.
