A colorful make-up trend – color and glitter for hair as well

The most important thing in the trend is playfulness and willingness to experiment. To create the look, you need highly pigmented eyeshadows without forgetting a good primer and an eyeshadow brush.

The colorful eye make-up trend doesn’t want to die down at all, but it gets new elements with it. In spring, everyone went crazy for the unique makeup of the Euphoria series characters, which combined rhinestones, glitter and pastel shades. When summer comes, we predicted that party make-up will contain colorful contours and artistic solutions.

Now these two trends have merged. Both Finnish and international pop stars have appeared in flashy eye make-up and sharp cuts. The festival crowd has danced in Ruisrock, Suomipopei and Ilosaarirock with rhinestones shining.

In this trend as well, the most important thing is playful creativity and willingness to experiment. Bold colors work on their own or make-up looks can be done by adding sparkle to the corners of the eyes or cheeks. Nothing is too much in this trend.

Among Finnish celebrities, the multi-talented Paula Vesala and influencer-activist Mona Bling are often seen in colorful makeup. Vesala relies on the handprints of well-known Finnish make-up artists. For example Fairytale Arvo and Emma Räsänen are behind the singer’s makeup. You can often see shades of blue in Vesala.

Mona Bling does her own makeup. An influencer’s Instagram account is like a candy store – pastel shades can be found in both outfits and eye makeup. Bling relies on a monochromatic result or adds a few rhinestones under the eyes.

The hottest international artists of the moment, such as the British Dua Lipa and the American Lizzo, inspire with their styles. Dua Lipa’s big eyes already attract attention, but the star’s lids often have strong colors and even the shimmering sparkle of a hologram. Lizzo matches her eye makeup with her outfits. Within a month, she has been seen wearing pink, blue and turquoise.

To create the look, the most important thing is to get highly pigmented eyeshadows without forgetting a good primer and an eyeshadow brush. Rhinestones and pearls intended for the face often have glue ready, but a trick that works is to attach the rhinestones safely to the eye area with eyelash glue.

The trend has no limits, but you can finish off the colorful border with rhinestones. You can use creativity both in framing and placing rhinestones, and shape some pattern into the eyes.

Also decorate the hair

Pearls and glitter should not be saved only for eye makeup, but you can complete the festival look by adding them to the hair! Hair beads stand out in the audience. Glitter works like hair dye, as it can emphasize the parting or create streaks.

The beads can be glued to the hair with glitter glue, which is similar to eyelash glue. The beads stay on the head in the party hummus, and the glue comes off with shampoo. Iida Niskanen
