Fresh Skin

Fresh Skin

This year, skin is in and full-coverage bases are going to be subbed out for skin tints, tinted moisturisers, and even tinted serums. Finishes will look and feel more like skin and less like ‘a face’, enhancing your natural tone and texture. 

Try: MAC Studio Radiance Face and Body Radiant Sheer Foundation for its sheer, radiant finish that let’s skin naturally glow. You can also layer to build to your perfect coverage.

Say goodbye to precise flicks and wings – the grungy, lived-in eye looks of the 90s are back. But, this time, expect them to look a little more fresh and refined. Instead of opting for heavy black, embrace different colours and finishes for an easier way to do your eye makeup.

Try: ​​Silk Oil of Morocco Silk x Fernando Hervas Argan Eyeliner. Infused with nourishing ingredients, it glides and blends with ease and will stay put for hours.

Choppy bobs

Choppy bobs

Another 90s trend is about to make waves. With the debut of freshly-cut bobs from Zendaya and Jenna Ortega at the end of 2022, it may have well signalled the return of shorter hair, choppy cuts, and even more volume than we saw last year. 

Try: ghd bodygoals - total volume foam. Besides the cut, the trick to nailing this trend is volume and texture, and this prepping foam delivers both to give your style the body it needs without feeling heavy or weighed down.

Side parts

Side parts

Despite the relentless teasing of millennials for their love of side parts, it looks like they’re set to make a comeback – deeper than ever before. Wear it slicked down for an ultra sophisticated, sleek finish, or give it height and bounce for next-level volume at the roots.

Try: ghd tail comb. The key to nailing your side part is a crisp, sharp and perfect parting.
