These beauty trends are DEAD (or at least dying...)

[@darksunnygirl]

Also, as someone who has studied stage makeup in different eras now, the 90s through the present, doing what looks best on your face shape and with your skin tone will always be better looking than following trends that don't look good on your skin tone or with your hair color. I figured out what looks best on my face and I will keep doing that forever LOL

[@tammystiletto]

This is how a lot of my pictures have remained timeless through the years. You can sometimes only tell the era due to the photo quality.

[@rainbowbrite8705]

I totally agree 👍 I became a teenager in the mid 90s. The whole skinny eyebrow thing was the trend my sister and mum told me to go with what suits your face and not a trend. They also warned me about my eyebrows not growing back. They were totally right and I still see many people I went to school with with the same brows because they didn’t grow back because they over plucked them 😮

[@darksunnygirl]

@@rainbowbrite8705 I was lucky that my eyebrows are so blonde you can't see them, so I never plucked them. You are so right that they don't always grow back.

[@meganweber3125]

I have a theory that the minimal lip trend had more to do with the 2020 panini rather than a natural trend. It took a long time for all of us to want something more than a gloss or nothing at all because of the masks. Then when masks were no longer a thing, we didn't really get companies bringing out new lip products or advertising lip trends until mid year this year.

[@manimanibooboo]

That makes much sense. So much, because they didn't know when the panini shop would close and things go into production a long time ahead.

[@kzvegansuperstar]

Masks are definitely still a thing and will continue to be a thing for a while, COVID isn’t done with us

I’m 51 and have seen lots of trends come and go. I believe things like a slicked back hairdo, a bob, red lipstick, and so on are timeless. I think it’s the trendy things we will look back on and cringe. The enormous eyelashes, the spiky eyebrows, and the overly ‘dewy’ skin just to name a few.

I couldn't agree more. I see alot of youtubers and influencers say what's in or out... and I think the lead is from social media and where brands are taking new launches. However.... many people who started pink blush in the 80s are still doing it.... or the big bold brows of the 2012s. Some people stick to what they know or things from their youth... and then that passes on to their younger generations. I still see LOADS of people with bushy/block brows... big lashes... fake tans...5inch nails...and lip filler. ❤

[@manimanibooboo]

80s teen/young adult here, we actually didn't wear our blush that high--you'd see it in videos, but mostly we'd do the whole suck your mouth in and sculpt under the cheekbone. And it was a bold streak bc most of us just used the brush in the compact-we didn't have access to brushes like today. I just had to pipe in. As for me, I have been happy to have blush back. I have strong contrast between my hair and skin, so I need some blush to not look washed out. I like plum/burgundy myself . Anyway, I am glad people at the very least have learned to love blush vs no blush, it will be interesting to see ehow it plays out. I like dewy, but i agree, it is played out. I am here for satin/lightly powdered and young folks, go full matte, it is tres chic especailly with a bold lip, little eye makeup. ..also very 90s One nugget of advice I like to pass on--save your jeans. Those cycle so much & yeah, save your jeans, purge your closet occasionally, except for your jeans. YVW.

[@cfw91491]

I'm an 80s teen/young adult here too and also did the suck-in-the-cheek-to-apply-in-the-hollow-of-the-cheek look with the tiny brush that came with the blush. I went for either a rose or plum shade with a bold streak that looked surprisingly good on an 18 year old, not so good at 58. We bought either Maybelline or Cover Girl because we couldn't afford Revlon or L'Oreal and high end makeup could only be found at the fancy department stores. The HS trend with the streaked blush was purple/plum eyeshadow with black eyeliner in the waterline which was achieved by melting the Maybelline red pencil eyeliner (you had to be careful not to over melt it with the lighter) and black Great Lash mascara. I usually used just a gloss aka Vaseline or maybe a light pink shade for the lips. Eye makeup was always my favorite, as it is today, and people used to call me "Endora" for my bold eye looks at the time. I see all these videos out there with the bold, beautiful eye looks that would have looked amazing back then but have to modify quite a bit today and saying to myself that I would have loved to have today's eye looks back in 1984. I also agree on saving the jeans. I still have a few pairs from the 90s and early 2000s that I may revisit soon but those acid wash and the "baggy" jeans from the 80s that could only fit my size 3 teenage body I threw away.

[@dmreddragon6]

In my area/city 90% of the women I see are still only wearing skinny jeans, and leggings. My guess is they don't want to try anything that doesn't show their curves/assets, because this is where they got the most compliments.

As a super cool toned person, I'm ecstatic that cool tones are finally back in. I've not bought many eyeshadows in years because I look terrible in warm toned makeup (the warm toned palettes I have get hardly any use). Cool toned taupes and silvers are my thing! Also bright red lips! Red is the only lip color that looks good on me. I hope red lips are there forever

[@MysticOceanDollies]

The bob is great when you first wash and style it, but not having the option to do a ponytail is why it’s generally a short lived trend

It also takes a lot of work to stay looking good.

[@mystic_mimi21]

Depends on texture, I have a natural wave so it gets better as it gets dirtier 😂, all I need is a refresh spray and scrunch. I have thick hair too so texture helps. If you have limp, flat hair then there is more work. Longer than my shoulders are so unmanageable.

[@nitzeart]

For my combo-dry skin, I will never give up dewy or luminous skin. It's so comfortable and goes with any eye or lip makeup. But I do think powdering certain areas of the skin can be helpful too like the T zone or for pores. But I think It's much easier to mattify later than start with a matte primer or foundation that will only feel heavy and uncomfortable on skin. At least for non oily skin types.

[@EMILYHERRERA]

If I wear my T-zone w/out powder, I just look greasy. I've never gone full-on sheen & gleam. 😅

[@FransceneJK98]

I agree. I’m combo dry too and matte makes me look even drier. So I’ll stick to a dewy look.

My theory is that every woman looks good with short hair Maybe not a bob but something between a bit longer than shoulder and chin leangth.

Chin length is not for everyone but shoulder length looks makes something to the body/ face imo that makes it so beautiful Edit: some people just rock the pixie/ bald look! forgot about that! but in general, short/ no hair looks better imo on everyone. Can’t convince me otherwise 😅

[@kellysblackcat]

I have always had very long hair, I went in for some foils and a decent cut, below the shoulders, but the woman did such a horrific hair cut I had to go back (to another person) and get it fixed, which ended up being a short bob cut. And I was so surprised how good it looked. And I've had people saying It makes me look years younger too. Who knew I'd end up liking it. Now I think I'm going to keep it like this for awhile.

[@falsiesnflannel375]

I wonder if, as we move to more neutral blush colors and shadow colors along with natural and less dewy foundations, contouring will come back stronger. Without a strong blush and dewy finish people may find they need to contour to add dimension without color or massive highlights/dewy-ness. Also, trends are cyclical.

I’ve personally noticed that shimmery blush seems to be on its way out, while highlighters appear to be on the rise. As far as the bob goes, I’ve found that they are FAR more maintenance than long hair; I can always come up with something pretty with my quite long hair, even if it’s dirty-ish; but never could with it cut in a bob. Also - I’m seeing the rise of “twinkly” eyeshadow and eyeliner-not a solid shimmer or “frost” - which I’m sure happy about. I personally need a little something-something of interest in my eyeshadow, w/o too much attention being drawn. I’m on the west coast, so maybe that’s got something to do with what I’m noticing and have experienced.

I think the big over the top pink blush is still great on a lot of people, but certainly not everyone. Same goes for copper, peach, or plum blushes.

[@irinaotubela2356]

Finally someone said it! The pink blush placed high up + the pink undereye is so 80s! But I do prefer how this modern rendition is paired with more nude makeup elsewhere on the face vs bold, colourful 80s looks.

@irinaotubela2356 the 80s blush was a low angled stripe under the cheekbone. Everyone was told to make a fish face, suck in you cheeks and do a stripe under the bone! Exception was long narrow faces, advised to do a horizontal stripe to "balance" or widen the face.

I’m 22 now and I’ve been doing feather brow style since I was 14, before it was even a trend. Honestly, don’t see myself stopping. I get so many compliments on my brows all the time

[@ashleylala4293]

I pray to God you are correct about the cool tones coming back. I hate the orangey rusty brick brown colors and I can’t take it anymore. I can’t even find cool tones when I go to buy lipsticks.

[@spiderlady7256]

I'm so fed up with all the warm tones also....

[@itslauraen]

also an amazing thing about trends that come and go is that when they first came around some of us were way too young to be a part of it and now as adults we can finally wear them like we always wanted to

[@Sofia-mi9ck]

I love how thought out and well-presented your videos are!

[@imaginarycosmetics]

I'd love to see the cool-toned trend expand past eyeshadow. Give me all of the cool-toned blushes and lipsticks, please!

[@carolbowen4349]

I’ve never worn lashes and prefer lightweight, wispy lashes for my eyes. I just discovered Honest Beauty serum infused lash tint and OMG, I’m not sure I even want to wear mascara again. It’s so good and very natural looking.

[@TheNatashenka13]

" ...we looked sweaty! And I have been participating" loooool Thank you for saying it

[@sandybowers5085]

Kelly!!! I have been out of the KZbin beauty space for about 9 months now. Let’s face it, I’m old 😂(60). But seeing you for the first time in awhile and being old enough to be your mom 😬! You look absolutely stunningly gorgeous!!! Your hair! Your skin! Your presence! Your overall confidence!!! I am so impressed!!! Good for you❣️💯👍🏼

[@myfanwydavies]

i love dewy and don’t look good in cool tones like bubblegum pink blush, but have discovered that the yellow in my skin pairs really nicely with dewy purple/berry blushes which i’ve seen getting more popular, so hopefully that picks up more !!

[@AndreeaC.]

I'm so into copper, neutral blushes as of late , i can't wait this trend to replace this Pink era because blue based pinks don't look good on me! Also i've just purchase 2 red lipsticks and some copper shades lately because i've decluttered some old ones ! I was never into laminated brows because i have fluffy ones and this trend wasn't for me at all! Of course at the end of the day is to wear what makes you feel happy and your preferences !❤❤❤ You look absolutely flawless, Kelly!

[@marionallen2222]

Lancome Mocha Havana blush is so gorgeous! Love bronzes and peaches and coppers!!!

[@lovinglisa3205]

Love a matte look and side part. Tired of the glossy lips too. I miss matte lips,the painted on look. Great video btw.😊

[@mariky]

I recently toned my hair a bit warmer, «chocolaty» according to my hairdresser, and to my surprise, now I can wear so many more of the cool tones in the I Need a Nude palette from ND. I was stunned and positively surprised! I had been avoiding dying my hair for years thinking I needed my hair to be the natural cool tone that it is (and lots of grays throughout, let’s be honest), and what I found is that going a mere atom of a warmer shade changed everything: I can wear cool tones without looking washed out, my blue eyes pop, my skin looks great. All for the fear of the copper, which does not suit me. There are more ways to go warmer and make your colours pop!😁

[@kateliness2]

Me: "I can't pull off a bob or a red lip" LOL

[@kateliness2]

Seriously though, I think both of those trends are a bit more, for lack of a better word, face-forward, and I've always thought that my hair and body/frame were more of assets than my face. I also never did any slicked back stuff 😂

[@aldskjf100]

Honestly, I feel like colourpop is on their way out. It as so popular for a while, and with their constant launches I think people have become less interested.

[@dmreddragon6]

You might be right about that. Personally, I love their eye shadows. But I have noticed that some YT'ers that used to review the new palettes, aren't doing them so much anymore.Without the influencers showing the swatches, and looks, the mainstream gals will go with the beauty influencers.

[@farashahanem]

Pink blush has never died and will never die for me personally, because it truly is my best shade for my coloring. I just apply it lightly. In other words, I just do whatever I want when it comes to makeup. 😉

[@Carriedeeznutz]

I’ve been kinda amazed by how quickly greys and taupes have come back the past few months. Last winter I was desperately looking for some CF grey/silver single eyeshadows, was amazed by how long it took me. I finally found lome loose mineral shadows from the brand Lily Lolo (they’re very good!). But it legit took me weeks to find those. I would personally appreciate if we actually did consistently get more cooler toned products available (in addition to keeping warm tones for those who suit warmer tones better).

[@268anita]

The “feather brows” thing reminds me of that thing at science centers that you touched and it made all your hair stand up.

[@NailTimeWithLex]

Girl my everyday makeup is a red lip! I always do my winged "siren" type eye look (I have hooded lids so it always looks good on my eye shape). Then my red lip (brighter in warmer weather, deeper in colder weather). It took some trial and error to find the tone of red that works for me. I definitely lean towards that cool blue red since I'm a fair cool undertoned girlie.

[@annemariecronen9096]

Nobody over 50 will ever go back to matte hell no 😂

[@myfanwydavies]

i’m 23 and i won’t either !! the absolute farthest i’d ever consider would be satin haha

[@samanthahernandez6286]

Not true, I will be 50 this year and I love matte skin. Not 90's flat matte, but soft matte. I have combo skin with a super oily t zone and dewy makes me look like I soaked my face in grease. 🤷‍♀️

[@myfanwydavies]

@@samanthahernandez6286 my skin’s got drier each year since i turned 20 so that’s probably why i love a reallyyy dewy look

[@sebumpostmortem]

It will depend on how the over 50 person' s skin type is and personal taste. Mine has been always suuuuuper oily and now is just oily. Body parts have become trends😕, I hope it won' t happen the same with skin finishes. Some oilies love the naturally jewy look, some other prefer to blot. Certain skin type being the trend, shivers, shi - vers🤦🏻‍♀️🥶🥶🥶

[@catelyntalks]

I'll never stop wearing strong blush high on my cheeks! LOVEEE it. Simple eye with lots of blush. All colors in my tone.

[@kellymuller6525]

Tbh my natural brows are the shape of the instagram brows so I just fill in a couple of sparse bits, add some brow gel, and call it a day. Feathered brows look weird on me - my brow hairs are pretty long so brushed up it just looks weird. Back in the Instagram brow days I got a lot of compliments when I wasn’t wearing anything on them

[@DrinkYourNailPolish]

I have something similar going on but my brow hairs are too light making me look like a potato so I use a tinted brow gel and they're perfect.

[@maeganmchugh]

I was just thinking about enjoying more of a soft matte finish on my skin! Great minds…☺️I’ve gone from dewy gel primers to more blurring formulas like the Elf liquid poreless putty primer and the Caliray primer.

[@carrie-leehurzeler7413]

I remember way back in about the mid 90’s Covergirl coming out with a Summer collection of white eyeliner and soft yellow eyeliner, it was also the year of coloured mascaras. It’s funny to see how things cycle around and around.

[@jeanieologist4456]

The bob will never go away

[@eponymouscharacter]

I remember my (male) science teacher remark to a classmate who always wore her hair in a straight, sharp middle parting and tied low (we were in a school with uniforms) that it looks like someone took an axe to her head. He wasn’t being mean or anything, it was just an observation that he REALLY should have kept to himself. But for some reason I always think of that when I see a middle part and so am happy to remain my millennial, side parted self!

[@DrinkYourNailPolish]

I've always been a side part girlie. I can't do a middle part b/c I have a big forehead and it makes me look bald. A side part looks better on ppl like me.

[@xorayne_]

he was definitely being mean

[@beejellies]

So excited for matte products to come back as an oily girl its getting harder to find products that dont emphasize my endless supply of facial greasiness lol

[@Chillikilli]

Wdym you can still buy matte products 😂

[@beejellies]

@vanillablooms6388 ig but i have to dig through all the dewy + glowy products first 😪

[@Anindeterminateamountofbees]

I LOVE the pink blush. It looks fantastic on my very pale cool toned skin, and I’m still super into the overblushed e-girl blush look lol

[@GeminiGlitters]

As someone with olive undertones 🫒 I have to use more of a neutral pink color because some tones of pinks look clownish .

[@z-6517]

I enjoyed this video, but I do want to say: If something enhances your beauty and flatters you, then what's in trend or not/out of trend, won't matter. Because only that, and/or your confidence, will overpower that. I can say so much more, but I think that statement rounds it up. Carrying that mindset with you not only helps you have more self-love, but makes you glow.

[@csdsa]

As an oily skin girl, I was THRIVING when the dewy skin was in 😂 I didn’t feel as self conscious about it as I did growing up and all, so I’m super sad to see it fading away and I think you’re right that it is going to pass. Fun video! I am thankful I never fell into the feathered brow phase - never looked great to me when people over did it 😭

[@heabooktubes]

I really enjoy your analysis of trends. As someone who is not nearly as informed on it as I used to be, I just like hearing about it. 😂

[@lindseyquinn_]

I love a fluffy brow but some are out of control. Like the ones with every brow hair slicked up to the point they look glued to the skin.

[@skateata1]

I think the pink blush has some life left in it.

[@mimzyc9949]

This was a very well thought out video. I have always had a middle part (I’m nearly 70) and just don’t look like myself with a side part so I’ll just have to wait until it’s back in style. As for everything else you’ve said, I’d agree with. There is a red to suit everyone and a cool tone to suit everyone. You just have to play around with makeup to find it.

[@jessicastraw6593]

As a plus size girlie, a bob looks atrocious on me lol it make my head look so small in comparison to my body

[@catelyntalks]

Yall looked glossy as hell 😂 im just now getting back into makeup as a 33 year old. I haven't even owned mascara in years lol your channel has helped so much!

[@Christina_miaa]

I learned to do makeup from beauty gurus in 2015, and I still love a lot of the styles from back then, I love using brow pommades, I love winged eyeliner and dramatic gold smokey eyes, I still have contour pallets and I love being a cake face! The only things I don't do anymore are baking my under eyes and ridiculous amounts of highlighter! Also I love blush now, I used to never wear blush haha! I will forever and always love the og full beat full coverage style and I will forever embrace it too

[@cristinag3507]

This is an interesting video when examining trends within a societal and cultural context, but as for whether one should stop doing something because it's on its way out and we may not see it next year, I disagree (not that I believe Kelly is really saying that). If you like having a dewier complexion because you have dry skin, or you just like the look - keep doing it! Whether matte or dewy is in, I have always gone satin or "natural" because it's how I feel comfortable wearing makeup - trends be damned! Still love that hot pink blush? Own it. Hair is an expression of yourself (and bobs are forever), so wear it however you choose. Like who is anyone to tell you that parting your hair in the center is not in or cool anymore? What a ridiculous concept. What if that's your natural part? I hate getting caught up in trend culture because it imposes a certain timeline on how looking one way or the other is either acceptable or not. Rant over.

[@kyla8386]

During recessions makeup tends to go more neutral and basic. We’ll see more timeless basic looks coming into trend, more silver and quiet luxury

[@meganweber3125]

OMG you would look insanely good with a shoulder length bob.

[@Jennifer-pb9nd]

When I was a kid, no way you would have a "butt-cut" (aka center part). when mom jeans came back I pretty much gave up on trends. I still like trying new things but no longer am I a slave to making lots of money for people trying to manipulate me to make themselves rich at the cost of the rest of the world.

[@Micolovescoffee]

Thanks so much for these videos! I always look forward to your psychic predictions on makeup! And your a spot on psychic when it comes to beauty! All your predictions do come true!! I love your yearly prediction and new years upcoming predictions! ❤

[@kaitlynjones3424]

Did anyone else call the center part “butt” hair twenty years ago? That just kind of hit my brain.

[@kendspan212]

Bobs and red lips YES! I just chopped my long hair into a lob and I’ve been rocking a bold lip all year. Now I feel naked without my lipstick. It’s all I need to feel confident and put together. I’m also a mom and I just need an easy timeless look for everyday.
