Celebrity-inspired makeup looks to welcome 2021

The start of a new year is always a great excuse to take your look to the next level. Whether you’re just rocking makeup around your house or you need to put together a look for a socially distanced hang out, you’ll definitely want to try these makeup trends.

Celebrate your perfect send off to 2020 by wearing a gorgeous celeb-inspired makeup look. Take inspiration from these looks below.

Electric eyeliner

Make a statement by wearing bold eyeliner on the eyes in whatever color you choose. Apply the eyeliner pencil or gel along the lash-line in an upward motion all the way towards the outer corners. If you’re wanting to create a thick line, continue to fill the liner until it’s thick enough. Set the look with a few coats of volumising mascara.

Classic Red lips

Nothing says festive like a classic red lipstick. Paired with an otherwise soft glam, it’s the perfect choice for outdoor dining with a few friends. The red lip look is sophisticated and perfect for New Year’s Eve. Find a red lipstick that you feel really good in, and shape your lips with a matching lip liner to ensure the color stays put.

Natural Glow

If your plans mostly include your couch and a Facetime with your mom, keep things casual with a natural beat. A touch of shimmer shadow with lip balm and not much else feels perfect for a low-key night.

Rainbow eyes

Prepare to be the coolest person at the party with this rainbow look. It might look complicated, but it’s as easy as peeling and pressing.

Opt for colors

This might not be a look that everyone is willing to try. Opt for a bright bold colour on your eyes, in the form of thick eyeliner and finish it off with a coat of mascara. Team it with a neutral lip and make sure it doesn’t clash with your outfit. If you don’t think you can carry off a bright colour on your eyelids, then opt for a bright colour on your lips instead.

Abstract art

This year switch up your standard wing eyeliner by creating an abstract detail that will set you apart from the rest. If you want your girls to go ‘gaga’ over your makeup, this is the one for you.

Wing it

Not sure what makeup look to tout this holiday season? Wing it with dramatic liquid eyeliner and soft, earth tones on the eyes. The highlight, contour, and lips are ever so glam paired with this eye makeup

2020 was all about sanitisers, face masks and social distancing. With months of staying at home, wearing pajamas and covering your face, it is now the perfect time to get back into the swing of your makeup wearing ways and bid the year adios.
