(Some) Organic Products
Organic products used to either be treated as a fake, a lie or something very expensive very few people can afford. Now so many brands have made strides in this category, and it feels like there’s an organic product for everything under the sun, from under eye wrinkles, bags and puffiness, clearing skin or just getting that dewy skin glow. The truth is, there are many really amazing organic brands and products out there, that have certainly earned their hype, but organic products aren’t created equal. And this is where you have to do your research to find the best one for you. If for example, you’re trying to get your hands on organic lip balm, you want to look for brands that actually specialize in that kind of thing, and are known for it.

This is the year to take your eye makeup game to the next level and actually become bolder. You’ve probably come across photos of models on runways sporting a strikingly bright mascara or eyeliner color.

Diversity has been a major buzzword in global conversations for the last 5 years or so. With so many different types of people in the world with so many different dimensions, the call for diversity came from people wanting to feel represented and seen. This led to many changes in beauty and fashion, with increased representation of different ethnicities, body shapes, and skin tones. Buyers have taken this a step further by choosing to buy from brands that take inclusion seriously, so this can affect you while you’re shopping for your makeup. There’s a lot of hype around this, and rightfully so. Beauty is more fun when people see themselves in it. If it becomes too elite, it loses all its appeal. Hopefully this drive for diversity won’t become another trend that loses steam after a while because we really do need it, in magazines, on runways and red carpets and at the makeup counter.Trends come and go, and that’s just how our world works.
