New Year’s Eve is the perfect occasion to go all out with your beauty look, whether you're attending a glamorous party or celebrating at home. It's a time to experiment with bold makeup, sparkles, and fresh trends. This year, we’re seeing some exciting makeup and beauty looks that will make you shine as you welcome the new year. Let’s dive into the top trends you can rock for your NYE celebration!
1. Bold Glitter Eyes
Glitter is always a go-to for New Year's Eve, but this season, we're seeing a major trend towards bold, sparkly eyeshadow. Think dramatic glitter lids, holographic highlights, and shimmering metallics. Whether you opt for a full-on glitter eyelid or just a pop of sparkle in the inner corner, glittery eyeshadow is the ultimate way to add a fun, festive touch to your look.
2. Glass Skin Glow
Say goodbye to matte and hello to dewy, glass-like skin. This glowing, fresh-faced look is all about achieving radiant, luminous skin. Use a highlighter on your cheekbones and down the bridge of your nose, and finish with a setting spray to lock in the glow. For that extra touch, Life Planner’s Mood Tracker feature can help you keep track of your skin’s health and how it reacts to different beauty products—perfect for maintaining that glow year-round!
3. Bold Lip Colors
Bold lips are a timeless New Year’s Eve trend, and this year, we’re seeing rich, daring colors such as deep reds, berry shades, and even metallic hues. Whether you're opting for a classic matte red or something more adventurous like purple or gold, a statement lip can be the highlight of your NYE beauty look. Pair it with minimal eye makeup to let your lips steal the show.
4. Smoky Eyes with a Twist
If you're a fan of smoky eyes but want to switch it up, this year’s trend includes incorporating colorful liners and metallic shadows to add dimension to the classic smoky eye. Experiment with shades like emerald green, cobalt blue, or even a bold purple to create a modern twist on a timeless look. The key is to mix in your favorite hues for a fun, personalized eye look.
5. Natural, Glowing Cheeks
While dramatic blush and contouring may have had their moment, this year, we’re embracing a more natural approach to cheeks. Soft, flushed cheeks with a dewy finish are the trend of the moment. Use a cream blush for a natural, skin-like finish that blends seamlessly into your skin. This will give you a youthful and healthy glow perfect for ringing in the new year.
6. Statement Lashes
Whether you prefer a dramatic falsie or a few coats of volumizing mascara, bold lashes are always in for New Year’s Eve. This year, the trend is all about extra volume and length. Opt for wispy, full lashes that create a fluttery, glamorous look. Statement lashes paired with a simple lip color can make a big impact, drawing attention to your eyes for a bold NYE look.
7. Glowing Nails
Don’t forget about your nails! Metallics, glitter, and jewel tones are all the rage this year. Whether you go for a full glitter manicure or just a hint of sparkle on your tips, glowing nails will tie your entire New Year’s Eve look together. A quick check of your Life Planner's Habit Tracker can help remind you to take care of your nails by tracking the self-care habits you’ve developed over the year!
8. Hair Accessories for Extra Sparkle
Hair accessories have become a major trend this year, adding an extra element of fun to your hairstyle. Think glittery headbands, metallic barrettes, and even rhinestone hairpins. These accessories are the perfect way to make your hair shine just as brightly as your makeup.
