If you’re looking to switch up your makeup look for 2023, just look towards the Spring/Summer 2023 runways for beauty inspiration. These are by no means for the faint-hearted, but are nonetheless fun and striking ways to express yourself away from the sea of regular makeup you’ll encounter. Keep reading for four makeup looks for the new year and the products you can use to recreate them.

Blush is no longer used to accentuate the cheeks with a healthy flush. Etro (pictured) used it to contour and emphasise cheekbones while Christian Cowan, who is known for reimagining nightlife fashion, decided that Spring/Summer 2023’s bronzer is now in the shade of scarlet.

Glitz and glamour of glitter are always tempting. You can have your makeup sparkle across your eyelids like the way Batsheva does it, or dress up your brows the way Peter Do (pictured) did with glitter-encrusted eyebrows. Pro-Tip: Use glitter glue to get you the maximum impact with minimal messy fallout.

Black eyeliner? Everybody’s doing it. Brown liner? Not impactful enough. Follow the lead of New York label Alice + Olivia by coating your lids with the fiery hue or go graphic a la the models at Bibhu Mohapatra. Either way, you’ll need a precise eyeliner brush to get you clean, crisp lines.

Consider this trend as the bold red lip reinvented. Choose to have a whisper of colour on your lips a la Ulla Johnson or make it glossy with a patent finish like Christian Siriano –  just be sure to put copious amounts of clear lip gloss to achieve this high-key look.
