5. Graphic Eyeliner 2.0

Graphic liner remains strong, but this year, expect floating eyeliner, negative space designs, and pastel shades to take center stage.

6. Y2K Frosted Makeup

Inspired by the early 2000s, frosted blue eyeshadow, shimmering lips, and icy highlights make a major comeback in makeup trends in 2025.

7. Underpainting Technique

Makeup artists are using underpainting, where contour, blush, and highlight are applied before foundation to create a soft, natural effect.

8. Jelly Lips

Glossy, translucent jelly-like lips will dominate, thanks to hydrating lip oils and tinted balms.

9. Statement Brows

From bleached brows to bold, bushy arches, 2025 makeup trends focus on unique eyebrow shapes and colors.

10. Clean Girl 2.0

The Clean Girl aesthetic evolves with dewy skin, subtle highlighter, and fresh-faced beauty—keeping things minimal yet radiant.

11. Pastel Color Blocking

One of the most playful makeup trends in 2025, pastel eyeshadows in mint, lilac, and peach add a fresh burst of color to the eyes.

12. Watercolor Blends

Instead of harsh cut creases, soft, blended watercolor eyeshadow looks are trending, giving a dreamy, artistic feel.

Pinterest

13. Luminous Setting Sprays

Matte setting sprays are out—dewy, radiant-finish sprays will keep your makeup glowing all day.

Pinterest

14. 3D Embellishments

Adding tiny pearls, rhinestones, and glitter appliqués to the face is a major trend for editorial and everyday glam looks.

15. Sunset Blush

Inspired by golden hour, this trend layers warm pink, orange, and coral hues across the cheeks for a natural, sun-kissed glow.
