TIMESTAMPS FOR EACH TREND: 00:15- Trend #1: Baked blush formulas for a softer cheek After years on the liquid blush train, brands are focusing on beautiful baked and soft powder formulas. As a formulator, I can tell you this is a major focus in the labs right now! 👉🏼My favorite baked blush: https://go.shopmy.us/p-43251207 01:42- Trend #2: Blushtouring with a draping technique We're draping blush from the cheekbone up to the temple, which is why those new powder formulas are becoming so popular—they make this technique effortless. 👉🏼My favorite blush to achieve this: https://go.shopmy.us/p-43251583 03:01- Trend #3: Soft Glam makeup Are you tired of the 'clean girl' aesthetic? So is everyone else. Soft glam is coming back, bringing a more polished and intentional look with it. 👉🏼My favorite palette to achieve this: https://www.houseofmarste.com/products/the-minimaliste-palette 03:53- Trend #4: Textured eyeshadows The pendulum is swinging back to fun! We're moving away from minimal neutrals and embracing colorful eyeshadows and unique, multi-dimensional textures. 👉🏼My favorite palette to achieve this: https://www.houseofmarste.com/products/le-mirage-eyeshadow-palette 04:56- Trend #5: Blotted Lips While gloss isn't going away, the everyday lip is shifting. The soft, blotted, just-bitten lip popular in K-beauty is becoming the new go-to for a natural look. 👉🏼My favorite lippie if you want a matte finish (I showed a Clinique lip stain here but matte is fine too) : https://go.shopmy.us/p-43252339 06:30- Trend #6: Liquid Contours Contour isn't dead—it just grew up! The harsh powders and heavy creams are being replaced by natural, lightweight liquid formulas that blend seamlessly into the skin. 👉🏼My favorite one (amazing formula) : https://go.shopmy.us/p-43252592 08:17- Trend #7: Skin Tints vs Foundations No more heavy foundations that oxidize, look caked or feel weighted on the skin. We're moving to skin tints that are lightweight and breathable. 👉🏼My favorite drugstore version: https://go.shopmy.us/p-41550283 👉🏼My favorite high end version: https://go.shopmy.us/p-43253036 10:04- Trend #8: Talc Free Formulas 🆘Insider alert! Due to stricter manufacturing regulations, almost ALL brands are quietly reformulating their powder products to be talc-free. Expect to see your holy grail powders changing soon without any big announcements. 👉🏼My favorite talc free face powder: https://go.shopmy.us/p-43253222 💋 MY BEAUTY BRAND » https://www.houseofmarste.com 💄 TAKE MAKEUP AND BUSINESS CLASSES WITH ME » www.calendly.com/marlenastell 📺 SUBSCRIBE » http://bit.ly/marlenastell BUSINESS INQUIRIES: [email protected] __ ❤️ LET'S CONNECT ❤️ INSTAGRAM » http://instagram.com/marlenastell TIKTOK » themarlenastell ____ 🥰 BEST BEAUTY PRODUCTS I RECOMMEND: https://shopmy.us/marlenastell MY TOP VIDEOS: 🎥. 8 Foundation Mistakes You Are Making: https://youtu.be/yZ-Tf6btN7Q 🎥 Over 40 Beauty Hacks: https://youtu.be/Ip11-cvTLZo 🎥 Makeup for Beginners: https://youtu.be/c79eKqWPKfs 🎥 The Best Foundations for Over 40 Skin: https://youtu.be/cJuOBbVRq0w 🎥 The Best Makeup Products of All Time: https://youtu.be/niAxv1-nMiM - If you've read all this, thank you!
