New York Fashion Week is not just about clothes; it’s also the epicenter of beauty trends that will shape the coming year. The runway and backstage areas were a hive of activity, showcasing the hottest beauty trends that are set to take the world by storm in 2024. From experimental makeup to au naturel looks, here are the top 10 beauty trends that captured the essence of New York Fashion Week.
1. The Glowing Skin
Natural, radiant skin took the centre stage. The “no-makeup” look, characterised by dewy, glowing complexions, was a favorite among designers and makeup artists. Expect to see more focus on skincare and minimal foundation in 2024.
2. Bold Brows
Big, bold, and bushy brows made a strong comeback. Unleash your inner Frida Kahlo and embrace the beauty of full, expressive eyebrows.
3. Graphic Eyeliner
The eyes were a canvas for creativity. Abstract eyeliners in various shapes, colors, and sizes turned heads and brought an artistic edge to eye makeup.
4. Wet look
Many models hit the runway with a “fresh out the shower” look. Hairstylists used gels, balms and holding spray to slick down locks and achieve a wet mermaid aesthetic.
5. Bold Lips
Vibrant, striking lip colors were on display, from deep purples to vivid oranges. The lipstick game is all about making a statement in 2024.
6. Monochromatic Makeup
Keeping it simple yet stylish, monochromatic makeup created a harmonious blend of colors across the eyes, cheeks, and lips. Coordinating your makeup has never been so chic.
7. Natural Hair Textures
Embracing natural hair textures and styles was a prominent trend. Curls, coils, and waves were front and centre, emphasising authenticity and self-love.
8. Metallic Accents
Metallic accents and shimmering highlights added an otherworldly, ethereal quality to makeup. Precious metals and jewel tones were used to enhance features.
9. Matte finish
The matte makeup look emphasises a shine-free finish, giving the skin a smooth and velvety appearance by using products with a non-reflective, smooth texture.
10. Clean Beauty
The “no makeup” look makeup trend aims to enhance natural beauty by using minimal products to achieve a subtle, fresh-faced appearance, with an emphasis on flawless skin and understated enhancements.
