Top Makeup Colors To look forward in 2022


2022 is here and everyone is thinking about the new fashion trends. While everyone is thinking about the new boots and trendy summer dresses, the makeup enthusiasts are thinking about the makeup colors that will rule the makeup vanities this year. So, with this article, we are talking about all the makeup colors that you must try on your face and up your makeup game!

Blue 

Blue is one color that can absorb everything with its wide spectrum of tones and shades. The best thing about blue is that it can be added to the vibrant and bold makeup looks as well as the cooler makeups for the beach day. Even more, blue is suitable for creating different eye makeup looks as it’s a perfect choice for mascaras, eyeliners, and eyeshades to create the looks that everyone mesmerizes and talks about.

For instance, this Azure Blue Eye Palette is the best formulation with a variety of blue shades. Ranging from light blue to ferozi and royal blue to navy, there is a great range of blue in this eyeshadow palette. In fact, the shimmer shades are perfect for adding the bling!

Marigold 

For the longest time, we have been stuck with the nude and neutral colors and it seems like everyone has had enough of the boring colors. For this reason, marigold will become the color star in the makeup world and it’s ready to add a punch of color to your makeup looks with the yellow and orange hues. What we love about marigold is that it can be subtle as well as bold, so you have great room to play with the shades. 

In fact, if you are experimental enough, you can simply get a yellow eyeliner for your brunch date with girlfriends and flaunt the brightest eyes. Not to forget, it’s a perfect color for your summer makeup. To illustrate, this marigold palette is ideal for everyone who likes playing with the oranges, reds, and yellows. Topping it all, the colors are incredibly pigmented, so even the swatch adds sufficient colors! 

Holographics  

You must be living under the roof if you didn’t know about the holographic craze in the apparel world, and it seems like it’s making its way into the makeup world this year. This is because holographic color has the sophistication and subtle glamor that every woman wants in her makeup look. The ultimate thing about holographic colors are the undeniably pretty shades that suits every skin tone. In addition, holographic color is appropriate for summer makeup looks. 

Personally, we love the lavender hints in this color and how it adds a muting touch to the look. Having said that, it’s a must to have a holographic lip gloss in the makeup vanity this year because bling is the ultimate need in 2022. These lip glosses add a beautiful sheen to the lips and look perfect with the pink summer makeup!

So, which of these colors are you adding to the makeup vanity?

The Must-Have Makeup Products For Christmas Parties

Christmas is just around the corner and we are sure you’ve already got tons of party invites this holiday season. So, when you have all those party invites, you have got to get ready and look like a million bucks before heading out, right? 

But again, it’s hard to get a few must-have makeup products that you can flaunt at parties but we are here with our recommendations. This is because, with this article, we are sharing some must-have makeup products that you can wear and look like a diva for the next Christmas party!

Foundation 

When it comes down to makeup, it’s important to create a perfect face canvas and that’s when a full coverage foundation comes in. the foundation is essential to create a blank canvas for you to plan the makeup look. However, choosing the right foundation is essential to ensure it doesn’t fade if you hug someone out of excitement (what a bummer it would be!). Similarly, you must select a full coverage foundation that hides all the marks and blemishes because that’s what you need for a party and don’t forget to consider your skin tone before you go ahead with the purchase.

Liquid Highlighter 

The Christmas parties are all about bling and you have to show it off with the perfect highlighter that adds glow to your face. For this purpose, we suggest that you opt for a liquid highlighter that you can apply all over your face, dab it in, and cover it up with the foundation or base of your choice. The best thing about liquid highlighter is that it can be applied evenly and won’t budge even when you blend in the foundation, promising a sheer glow that everyone wants while getting ready for the year-end party.

Eyebrow Pencil 

When you have to go for a Christmas party, it’s important to look sorted and nothing works better than an eyebrow pencil (imagine having the perfect makeup but the brows are not sorted, how tacky will it look?) That being said, make sure that you have a perfect eyebrow pencil to tame and shape the eyebrows and add a finishing touch to your makeup look.

Finish Powder 

Everyone tells you to invest in glamorous lipsticks and colored eyeliners but how are you going to fix your makeup?

Secret Tips To Make The Foundation Stay On Longer

With Thanksgiving arriving on 25th November, you must be thinking about the makeup looks that you are going to create on your face canvas, but hey, who is going to think about the slip-and-slide? 

Honestly, every woman struggles with shifting foundation. It doesn’t matter if you are using the long-stay foundation, using the wrong application techniques will create chaos on your face. So, if you are ready to flaunt the best makeup look with a perfectly settled foundation, let’s check out the secrets to attain such results!

Use The Setting Spray 

Sure, we all spritz setting spray on the face when the makeup is done but does that do the trick? Nope!

The trick is to mix the foundation with your setting spray before you apply it to the face. This is a tried-and-technique, and the makeup artists literally swear by the results. So, pump out the foundation, spray some setting spray on it, mix, and apply!

Shave The Face 

If you are someone with facial hair, opting for dermaplaning is a long-term solution to achieve a smooth and hairless face. However, nobody got time for that when Thanksgivings is just around the corner. Well, as it turns out, you can spritz some rose water on your face and use a hair-wicking device to clear off the facial hair. Honestly, it will ensure that the foundation glides on perfectly!

Prime The Face

Every woman has bought the high-end primer to prime the face and create a porcelain canvas for applying makeup, but primers don’t always do the job, especially when you have to ensure the foundation doesn’t shift. Having that said, priming the face with setting sprays does wonders as it ensures a better foundation holder. In addition, it reduces the appearance of pores just like a primer while creating a healthier skin appearance. 

Use That Beauty Blender

Don’t we all just dab the foundation with fingers and glide away the brush? Well, it’s time to bid farewell to those techniques and opt for a beauty blender. That’s because a beauty blender ensures proper settling of the foundation. In fact, if you just soak the beauty blender in setting spray (just dampen it, babe), the results will be oh-so-amazing!

The Powder

If you are someone with oily skin who just can’t get the foundation to stay in place, the setting powder will do the trick to perfection. However, be mindful about how much powder you apply because too much will break the foundation and create cracks throughout the foundation. Even more, you can dab some powder on your face before applying the foundation, promising smooth foundation application! 

Always Moisturize 

We might be late in telling you this, but moisturized skin has a better capacity of holding the foundation as compared to dry and chapped skin. That being said, before you apply the setting spray and loose powder, add some moisturizer on the skin and create the baseline for the foundation. 

To summarize, if you are ready to flaunt an amazing foundation, follow these tips and you can even find the foundation and setting powder at discounted prices (Ola Julie Cosmetics is having the Black Friday sale on Friday, so get your shopping cart in order!).
