4 Hair and Make-Up Looks Inspired by the Latest Trends
There’s no reason you can’t bring your beauty A-game while wearing a mask. To prove it, Tane Tomoana, Creative Lead at Dry & Tea, and make-up expert Lochie Stonehouse have created four looks inspired by the latest trends that take you from day to night while you do your part for society.
1. Beautiful Blowout with Bold Lashes
Make-Up: No one’s going to notice if you’re wearing lipstick, so go for major lashes instead. Apply mascara from the roots with an angled eyeliner brush for a more precise application.
Hair: The ’70s-style blowout is a major trend this season. Use a straightening iron to curl hair away from your face to showcase your eyes, then finish with dry shampoo for added volume and texture.
2. Sleek Bun with Bright Eyeliner
Make-Up: Give your face a pop of color with vibrant eyeliner. Apply it along your lower lash lines, then apply eyeshadow in a similar color over the top to make sure it doesn’t budge.
Hair: Create a center part, then smooth your hair into a low ponytail using mousse. Twist your ponytail loosely around itself, tuck to secure, then pull out pieces for texture.
3. Half-Up, Half-Down with Liquid Eyeliner
Step 1:
Make-Up: Apply a light concealer around your eyes to make them pop, then set with a lightweight setting powder. Define your brows with pencil or powder and set with a gel.
Hair: Use a straightening iron to create multidirectional waves, curling each section in a different direction and applying less tension at the ends to keep them straight. Once cool, brush out the waves to relax them.
Step 2:
Make-Up: Apply warm, matte, nude eyeshadow along the crease of each eyelid, then a touch of frosted color in the center of each eyelid to brighten. To create a cat-eye effect and open up your eyes, start halfway across each lash line when applying your liquid eyeliner to your upper lashes.
Hair: Pull up your hair from behind your ears to create a half-ponytail, then secure with a hair tie. Wrap a piece of hair from the ponytail around the hair tie.
Step 3:
Make-Up: Instead of applying pencil liner under each eye, use a thin brush to apply a line of eyeshadow for a soft yet sophisticated look. Finish with several coats of mascara.
Hair: Add volume to your ponytail by teasing it with a tail comb. Spray your hair with hairspray to keep it in place.
4. Tousled Topknot with Sunset Eyes
Make-Up: Desert eyeshadow hues suit all eye colors and skin tones and are totally on trend. Apply your chosen shade to the entire lid of each eye, then complete the look with a dot of highlighter in the inner corners and lots of mascara.
Hair: This look is perfect for day-old hair. Embrace your natural texture, or for extra volume, create a few haphazard waves with curling tongs before drawing your hair up into a high ponytail. Leave two pieces out at the front, curl them, then brush them out to form relaxed waves.
