From Dior to Fendi, passing through Coachella and the Met Gala
He was among the first to make use of beauty applications on the face Peter PhilipsCreative and Image Director of Dior Make-Up, who for the Cruise 2022 collection set in ancient Greece has used in profusion small and very white pearls along the entire edge of the eye.
It was a short step from pearls to rhinestones: in Fendi’s SS 2022 Haute Couture collection were applied all over the face for a futuristic mood.
The guests of the music festival arrived to confirm the trend Coachella: one above all Vanessa Hundgens, who showed off mint-colored light points to enhance the supple line of a tone-on-tone eyeliner. Also at the Met Gala 2022, Cara Delevingne adorned the rim of the upper eyelid with gold rhinestones.
Light points for a splarkling face make-up
Certainly not for a daily make-up, rhinestones, pearls and light spots on the face they are gambles.
They apply above all on the eyelids, along the lower rim or slightly scattered around the whole gaze. Sometimes just one is enough, for example in the inner corner of the eye, and that’s it.
A peculiarity of these jewel details is that they can be applied individually or in profusion: for a minimal look, just two are enough, one on the inner corner of the eye and the other on the outer one, while to capture all the summer light you need a few more, perhaps to illuminate a line of white eyeliner (more seasonal trend) on the upper eyelid.

How they apply
To apply these decorations, there are two ways: for convenience, and in case of lack of manual skills, you can choose adhesive rhinestones.
Alternatively, you can use the glue for the false eyelashes which has greater grip and is also suitable for the face.
A tip: the decoration must not be too big otherwise it risks falling off.
