‘Spring clean’ your beauty looks by adding these six hot trends from the runway to your beauty repertoire.
Not only did we see dewy skin, bronzed cheeks and shades of pretty pastels on the SS19 runways, we also saw pops of electric pink on the lips and lashes, and flecks of strategically placed golden glitter.
1.
LEVEL UP YOUR LIP GAME
A trend that will definitely put a major spring in your beauty step is a bright and bold smile. From rich power shades to happy brights, bold colour was seen on just about every pout – both on the runway and the streets.Backstage beauty bite
If you want your lips to be the focal point of your look, prep them first by gently exfoliating and applying a balm to create a smooth canvas for your chosen colour.
2.
BRIGHTEN UP YOUR LIDS
SS19 make-up artists made it clear that it's time to give your lids a lift with bright pigments. From tangerine to turquoise, fuchsia and canary yellow, no shade is too bright – in fact the bolder and brighter, the better!Backstage beauty bite
For the most vibrant colour payoff, use white eyeliner to sketch and fill in the shape you want before applying your colour on top.

BRONZE YOUR BARE SKIN
Bronzer was everywhere. Whether subtle and warm or with a metallic glow (think seventies-style sun-kissed skin), bronzer complements bright pops of colour beautifully.Backstage beauty bite
For a more natural-looking finish, opt for a bronzer in a shade just slightly darker than your own skin tone.
4.
BRUSH UP YOUR BROWS
Good news for the brow obsessed: eye brows are still a major beauty focus. Even better news? It’s all about looking as natural as possible, with brushed up hairs and a natural arch. All you need is a brow brush or spoolie to brush up the brow hairs, a brow pencil or powder to fill in gaps where needed and a setting gel to tame and keep them in place.Backstage beauty bite
Use a light flicking motion when filling in your brows for the best results in creating natural, fuller brows.
5.
ADD SOME SHIMMER
Not just for kids school projects and outdoor festivals, glitter has made its way back into mainstream beauty. Models sported various intensities of glitter with soft flecks on lids, lips and cheeks or bold graphic eyes dripping with shimmer and shining pigments. Whichever look you decide to try, there is no denying that this make-up trend adds a touch of playfulness to your overall look.Backstage beauty bite
Prime your lids before applying glitter to ensure the product adheres and stays put throughout the day and/or night.
6.
PREP YOUR SKIN
Make-up minimalists rejoice: fresh, glowing skin paired with barely-there make-up was seen across all runways. Make-up artists pushed full-coverage foundation to the side, using sheer-tinted formulas or a touch of concealer instead. To get the fresh-faced look right, it’s important to prep the skin with hydrating moisturisers and serums. For that extra glow, add highlighter to the high points of your face.Backstage beauty bite
Keep your complexion looking fresh and radiant throughout the day by regularly spritzing your face with a facial mist.
