2015 Makeup Trends from a bloggers perspective


Celebrity red carpet looks are all the rage right now. Were they wearing smoky eyes, red lips or nude lips? Leading magazines have you covered on the latest trends in Hollywood, but you should be looking from a bloggers perspective instead. 



There are more makeup trends on social media, like dewy skin, light contouring, defined brows, ect. I just wanted to talk about a few that are less talked about by other beauty bloggers and magazines. 

Now let's get trendy...



Kylie Jenner has set a huge makeup trend this past year, but I have a feeling it's going to get even more popular. Almost every well-known brand is releasing their take on matte lipstick, some are even including the Kylie Jenner shade that has been all the rage since she first posted her 90's lip shade on Instagram. Not only did Ms. Jenner break the internet with a back-to-the-90's lip color but now everyone is obsessed with overdrawn lips. No one is lusting after the lip injections that swell you up like a bee sting. All that's needed is a lip liner to trace right outside of your lip line. Some even take it as far as just using a lip liner to fill in the whole lip. Matte is the most popular finish but I have noticed some beauty gurus using other finishes, such as satin.



Bold lips with minimal eye makeup is a growing makeup trend. Its seen on celebrities, and Instagram beauty gurus. Not only does a bold lip make a statement but it's an easy look for newbies to replicate. But dont think red is the only bold lip color to incorporate into this trendy look. Purples are popping up everywhere on social media. Be the first of your friends to jump and the band wagon and sport around a purple lip paired with winged eyeliner. 



Not everyone likes to wear a lot of makeup but some like a little something extra to "look alive". Last year on Youtube all the beauty gurus were posting "no makeup, makeup look". To be quite honest, I'm got really tired of it. However, most people cant wear makeup to work or school, so actually this trend is very popular with a vast amount of people. Not to mention its super easy to accomplish. Most people don't even need a tutorial!




 Two trending eye shadow shades are berry and gold. Not necessarily together but they do make a beautiful makeup look. One of my favorite eye shadow shades is from the Lorac Mega Pro palette. Its a nice matte cranberry shade without any glitter. It's easily dupe-able and looks great on every skin tone. It is stunning on the crease, on the lid and it even looks beautiful smoked out with black kohl liner all over the eye. Expect to see these two shades a lot this year. If you need a good gold shade, Lorac Cosmetics just released a new palette called "Unzipped Gold", which I will probably do a review on it soon. 




Ok, so far you have learned about the matte lipsticks but did you also know matte eye shadows are all the buzz right now? Matte eye shadows create sophisticated looks that are both gorgeous and flattering. The only problems is how hard a good formula is to come across. Lorac Cosmetics has a good palette with matte shades in it (Lorac Pro). The picture above is a great look to pair with the bold lip I was talking about earlier in this post.



Berry lips are so in right now. A nice bold red lip will always be classic but if you want to be super trendy, then show off with a mysterious berry lip. Aside from the intriguing color, I think the diversity made this shade popular. It flatters pale, medium and dark skin. Pretty much every makeup junkie out there can pull off this breath taking trend. Have you worn berry lips lately?



Everyone loves a beautiful cut crease. Not everyone will wear one but its definitely an admired new trend on social media. To some, a cut crease can be really hard to master. For example, if you have deep set eyes or hooded eyes. I know I do, but luckily I was able to figure out a way to work around the situation. By the way, I will have a tutorial up soon for the cut crease picture above.
