These Viral Winter Make-Up Looks Are Easy To Recreate. Here’s How

With each new season come new and exciting beauty trends. Sometimes, they are shiny and new, while other trends are timeless and feature every year. If you want to create eye-catching winter make-up looks, here are three that are blowing up on social media and are easy enough to recreate at home.

Look #1: Frosted face

While most places in SA don’t experience icy winter mornings and snow-covered ground, the colours associated with it are still a good choice for the winter months. This means that you should consider pastel and shimmery shades of white, light blue, lavender and frosty pink.

Highlighter is one of the key features of this look, and ones with a pink, white, silver or pearlescent finish will complete it. Make your eyes the focal point by wearing a nude shade on your lips.

Look #2: Bold lips

There are certain trends that are timeless and roll around every season. In the warmer months, popular lip colours include pinks, corals and even sheer, barely there tints. Each winter, however, bold lips – especially with a velvety matte finish – make a comeback. This year, reds are having a moment, especially ones with warm undertones.

As for the rest of your face, keep it as minimal as possible so that your lips are the focus. Forego heavy base in favour of a skin-perfecting tinted moisturiser or BB cream.

Look #3: Golden glow

If cold and frosty isn’t your vibe, you’re in luck because glistening gold make-up looks are also trending, bringing a warm, dewy glow to the cold season. This shimmering hue is primarily being worn as an eyeshadow, either as an accent or stand-alone shade to add some sparkle.

But it’s not just the eyes – you can also opt for a highlighter that is either gold or has a distinctly warm undertone. This shade can help to counteract any dullness in your skin that can be brought on by the weather.
