Keeping The Glow | Unveiling the Secrets to Timeless Skin

Alright, let’s talk skin—the canvas of life’s masterpiece. Imagine this: exercise, water and meditation—all swirling in a potion of self-confidence, creating the elixir of life. That’s the fountain of youth, my friends.

Now, to get cozy with your complexion, understand the skin’s ABCs—its layers and types. There are three skin buddies. First, there’s the epidermis, where old skin bids adieu, making way for newbies every twenty-eight to thirty days. The dermis, the second act, throws in blood vessels, hair parties and essential oil-sweat glands, keeping the pH balance rave-worthy. The finale? The subcutaneous fatty layer is the skin’s shock absorber, giving that firm “I got this” vibe.

Your skin, Darling, isn’t just a face affair; it’s head-to-toe glam. Show it love everywhere!

7 Makeup Trends That Should Be On Your Radar For 2024

MAKEUP TRENDS | 2024 | FLOURISH DIGITAL MAGAZINE | BLOG

Graphic eyeliner, doll-like blush, and colorful eyelashes are all in store.

In 2024, all we want is one thing — at least when it comes to our makeup. An airbrushed flush, ombré lips, striking eyeliner… experts predict that 2024 makeup trends will center around the power of one. We’re moving away from looks that “require a lot of moving parts” which means more “easy to use” products says Tasha Reiko Brown, a Los Angeles-based makeup artist.

 

Keeping things simple (as in forgoing a smoky eye and contoured cheeks and bold lipstick, all at once) doesn’t mean you have to abandon bold makeup. (And you also don’t have to bleach or bedazzle your brows like we saw all of 2023.) Ahead, makeup artists share exactly how to do more with less this year.

Meet The Experts

Patrick Ta is a Los Angeles-based makeup artist and founder of Patrick Ta Beauty, Sheika Daley is a Los Angeles-based makeup artist, Tasha Reiko Brown is a Los Angeles-based makeup artist and Ash K Holm is a Los Angeles-based makeup artist.

Draw the Line

Keep your high-precision liners nearby because eye makeup is getting graphic. “Striking shapes, trendy reverse liner, and bold lines draw attention to the eyes,” says Brown. Since spotting the sharp winged liner at Laquan Smith’s spring 2024 show and the marker-like striped eyeliner on Jil Sander’s spring 2024 runway, our subtle cat eye hasn’t seen the light of day.In search of an inky formula to try this out? Makeup artist Sheika Daley traced Lancôme Idôle Ultra-Precise Felt Tip Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in an arrow design on models at LaQuan Smith’s show. “Place a dot just outside the eyelids as your ending point, check for evenness, then draw out from lash line to dot,” says Brown.

Better Than Bare

Skin tints replaced heavy foundations in 2023, but it turns out we do still like some coverage — without a cakey feel. So this year, brands started giving us the best of both: MAC, Covergirl, and Fenty Beauty recently launched sophisticated formulas that provide coverage without compromising on the lightweight texture and finish.Allure editors have already added the new MAC Studio Radiance Serum-Powered Foundation to their makeup routines. “It melts into my skin like a moisturizer but has enough pigment to make my skin tone seem more even. I’m even able to layer a bit extra under my eyes to make my dark circles less obvious,” says Allure editor-in-chief.

Get Dolled Up

Blush is returning to the apples of the cheeks, after exploring just about every other high point of your face. Experts are calling it “doll blush “— it’s a “youthful look, that adds definition to the face because of how the blush sculpts the cheekbones,” says Los Angeles-based makeup artist Patrick Ta.

Instead of packing on the pigment in a harsh circle (this is when you start to enter clown territory), Brown says blending out the edges will create a softer gradient. We got a glimpse of this after a wave of the TikTok-famous ombré concealer, a technique used to dilute highly pigmented blush with complexion products for a more natural-looking finish.

Brands like Make Up For Ever, Patrick Ta, and Armani Beauty have airy blushes that create a cloud-like finish on their own. Allure editors love the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Glow blush (so much that we gave it a Best of Beauty award). “I love how easily it blends into my skin without leaving any harsh lines,” says Allure deputy digital director Kara McGrath.

 

Go Monochromatic

Pumpkin spice, strawberry girl, and latte makeup are all TikTok-speak for monochromatic makeup. “It’s one mood with a subtle shift in tones between the lip and the face,” says Brown, who predicts the trend will revive single-color palettes and elevate multi-use color products like Ami Colé Desert Date Cream Blush & Lip Multistick and Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Flushed Matte Color for Cheek & Lip — two products that Allure editors have had in rotation.

Swipe Bright

For many months, bleached brows and bedazzled arches have been in the spotlight. Now it’s time for eyelashes to have their dance with color. Models at the Prada fall 2023 show and AZ Factory spring 2024 show batted long blue, pink, and purple falsies.

No need to reach for falsies and glue though. New formulas like YSl Lash Clash and Half Magic Eyelectric Extreme Lengthening Mascara, and older staples like L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Mascara come in blue, green, and purple, perfect for adding a wink of color in favor of the expected black or brown.

Ombré Lips

The ‘90s are back… again — but with an update. Ombré lips, the modernized version of the darkly-lined lip that was popular decades ago, has been popular on TikTok and experts say it’ll continue to trend all year.

“It’s all about looking at your natural lip colors and accentuating that,” says Holm. She applies two shades of lipstick in the same color family, but slightly different shades, like a tan brown and rusty pink, before defining the lips with liner. We are fans of the Ere Perez Coco Crayon which has a saturated matte finish and blends effortlessly.

Add a Pop of Color

The continual lean towards minimal makeup doesn’t mean vibrant splashes are disappearing altogether; the spring 2024 runways proved that a single pop of color is all you need to make a statement. Models at the Helmut Lang and Max Mara spring 2024 shows walked with nothing (on their faces) but a dash of color on the eyes or lips.

At Helmut Lang, the “pop” of choice was a bright red winged eyeliner, while the look at Max Mara was an understated cherry cola lip. Experts predict that more and more people will be topping off their barely-there base with a strong flick of eyeshadow in a vibrant color or a swipe of lipstick in a vampy shade.

Here’s How To Have The Ultimate ‘Everything Shower’

It feels like almost every day a new phrase enters our lexicon, and in recent weeks, it’s safe to say the “everything shower” is high up on the list of new terminology we need to know. Its ubiquitousness is probably no surprise given baths are on the decline, with only a dwindling 32 per cent of Americans still preferring baths over showers, according to a recent survey.

On the flip side, showers, including those “everything showers”, are experiencing a boom. Pinterest revealed a huge year-on-year increase for shower-related searches on its website, with the term “shower routine aesthetic” rising by 460 per cent. And over on TikTok, #ShowerTok has reached more than 6.1 billion views, making it one of the platform’s most searched-for terms of 2023. Although showers are energy and cost efficient compared to baths, sensible water consumption is still something we all need to be mindful of. With that in mind, it pays to strategise your power shower. Here’s how.

Pre-shower preparation

Make the most of your time under the water by tackling certain tasks pre-shower. A pre-shampoo treatment is a must for rescuing dry, brittle or broken hair. Soak your strands in something like Philip Kingsley’s Elasticizer, which nourishes hair and improves its condition, strength and shininess.

While that’s working its magic, it’s time to body brush. Using a long-handled brush (important for reaching between your shoulder blades), brush firmly in long, smooth strokes over dry skin, working upwards towards your heart. This not only exfoliates the top layer of dead cells to reveal softer, smoother skin underneath, it also stimulates blood flow and the lymphatic system, which in turn improves immune health.

Pre-shower is the best time to apply a face mask, too, as it can be rinsed off under the water without any mess. Depending on your skin concerns, plump for whichever formula you like, although the skin-softening steam from the shower will up the ante of declogging clay-based masks. The Outset’s Purifying Blue Clay Mask helps remove impurities and brighten the complexion.

Under-the-water routine

If your skin needs some extra buffing once you’re under the water, then go in with another exfoliator. We like Naturium’s The Perfector Salicylic Body Wash, which combines cleansing properties with the sloughing benefits of salicylic acid, a BHA which helps to unclog pores. If you prefer your products to be more pampering than perfunctory, try a shower oil. Diptyque’s Do Son Shower Oil is a heady concoction of tuberose and orange leaves and really helps an “everything shower” live up to its name. It also makes a great partner for a luxe shaving routine and leaves skin feeling hydrated and supple – ideal if you’re pushed for moisturising time post-shower. Meanwhile, Augustinus Bader’s latest launch combines style and substance. The Body Cleanser uses the brand’s signature TFC8 technology to target, treat and clean the skin on your body, too.

Although experts tell you to avoid it, cleansing your face in the shower is a habit most of us indulge in. To save your skin from drying out or becoming irritated by overly hot water, turn the temperature right down while you cleanse and always remove product carefully with a clean washcloth to avoid dragging the delicate skin. Elemental Herbology’s Five Elements Vital Cleanse helps improve the tone and texture of skin while imbuing it with radiance. If you can manage it, keeping the water cool (or, better still, cold) until the very end is an excellent way to finish your shower and boost endorphins.

Once your hair mask is rinsed off, go in with a scalp scrub to rid your follicles of any excess product build up. Ouai’s Scalp & Body Scrub is a heavenly scented multitasker powered with probiotics to help maintain scalp health. And to elevate your shampoo and conditioner to power shower status? Look to Sam McKnight’s Cool Girl Volume Shampoo and Conditioner, which deliver volume, body and thickness after just one wash.
