Make-up trends to avoid

Change is the only constant thing and it applies to the beauty and makeup industry as well. There are always new and creative trends one can see coming every year and some that one should avoid.

Pallavi Mehra, Marketing Manager at VanityCask and Davinder Kaur, Makeup expert at MyGlamm list some beauty trends that need a goodbye in 2018.

Using excessive amount of highlighter
Highlighters have been extremely popular the last few years. One big mistake that most of the people make is using excessive highlighter on their faces. Another big no is using coloured highlighters. Always remember we use highlighter to give our self a pretty and a subtle glowing look.

Excessive contouring and highlighting
Excessively contoured face trend needs to die. This whole trend creates unnatural lines in the hopes of reconstructing your face. You may think you look snatched, but you just have sharp lines drawn on the hollows of your face. Pick up the right products and know how to apply them.

Dramatic eyebrows
Natural eyebrows look the best. Moving from gorgeous natural eyebrows to wavy, squiggly, ponytail eyebrows, glitter or feathered eyebrows is one trend that immediately needs to be dumped. Such creativity looks good only on your social media posts. It's time to bid farewell to the disturbingly creative eyebrows.

Silicone sponge
One of the reasons to avoid this trend is because it takes more time to blend.

Overly done contouring
Just like highlighters, contouring is also extremely popular. However, it’s time to get rid of overly done contouring.

Faux freckles
The trend of fake freckles was first spotted in London Fashion Week. In thisfake dots were created using the Brow marker. Beauty experts have agreed that freckles make the face appear more youthful, fresh, and more accessible. However, they should be natural or else, they can make a face look funny too.
