Beauty in Colour: 2018 Beauty Trends

The beauty industry is always awash with a stunning array of colours, textures and finishes, and of course 2018 is no different. Each year we see the introduction of new colour trends, with makeup often being at the forefront of colour updates for the season.

Read on to discover the beauty and colour trends that we are loving this season, and how to achieve them….

Neon

This trend isn’t for everyone, and it’s certainly not for everyday wear, but neon was one of the standout trends of the spring/summer ‘18 runway shows. Shades of yellow, orange and pink were seen on the eyes of the catwalk models, in some cases in a colour block style, in others applied more delicately, but up to the eyebrows.

Make this look work for everyday wear, by adding just a hint of neon to your lids. Apply carefully and build up as you go – try applying subtle to the inner corners of your eyes, and building up in the crease as you work your way towards the outer corners.

Flushed Cheeks

Come spring/summer, dewy natural skin is often at the forefronts of our minds. This year it’s all about that naturally fresh looking skin, but with the addition of flushed cheeks. Achieving that naturally glow can only be done…well naturally…with a great skincare routine.

Provide your skin with what it needs this summer, and consider introducing a medical facial or peel into your routine. We can help you achieve flawless looking skin, and will analyse your skin to provide you with the best treatment to deliver the results you desire.

To achieve a natural flush, try pinching the apples of your cheeks gently in the morning, or opt for a lovely pink blush. A cream blush is the best option, when going for that natural, glowing finish.

Vivid Lips

Well defined lips look fuller and healthy. Over the last few years, we have seen a huge increase in the desire for full lips, and defining your lips is a great way to achieve that full lip look, with out the need for fillers.

This year it’s all about coral and red lips. Team with fresh and dewy skin, and just a sweep of mascara for the perfect everyday look. Permanent lip blush can ensure your lips look well defined each and everyday, but choosing a bold colour such as coral or red might not be appropriate when it comes to a look that’s going to work for you for the long term. Instead consider a natural pink with a coral tone, to create an on-trend look, that won’t date.
