Sandy Taylor, Beauty Blogger and Makeup Artist of Foundation Fairy Sandy Taylor,Beauty Blogger and Makeup Artist ofFoundation Fairy, shares, “It is without a doubt that the world is becoming more aware of the effects of climate change and this trend will continue in 2020. Major beauty brands like Olay are already moving toward refillable, reusable and recyclable packaging. On the consumer front, people are moving away from single-use products and heading towards a “zero waste lifestyle”. Therefore, we may see an upward trend in the use of the following types of beauty products:

  1. Reusable Makeup Pads– These pads are usually made of soft organic bamboo fibers.
  2. Reusable Sheet Masks– These masks are usually made of soft silicone and can be worn over a daily serum or facial creams to hold in facial moisture.
  3. Reusable Beauty Blenders– These blenders are usually made of soft silicone that helps with the application and blending of makeup products such as primers, concealers, and foundations.
  4. Reusable Silicone Swabs– These swabs are made of soft silicone and are meant to replace cotton swabs. They are great for the application of makeup and skincare products.”

Desiree Delia, Makeup Artist Desiree Delia, Makeup Artist, tells us, “In 2020, we are going to see the continued desire by the consumer to do their own research on which skincare and makeup products they are choosing to use. Our mindsets on how we can achieve our beauty goals are changing.

We are looking for effortless longevity when it comes to the youthfulness in the appearance and health of our skin. We are going to see people continue to peel back their makeup foundation layers and invest in the right skincare services to treat concerns rather than cover them up. Hydro Jet & Jet Peel facials will continue to be mainstream and advanced eye rejuvenation treatments will trend!

In 2020, we are also going to see people’s tolerance for animal testing dwindle and the demand for more transparency in the cosmetic industry increase. Clean Beauty will no longer be viewed as a “trend,” rather becoming the new normal because mindfully created and produced beauty products without any proved or suspected toxic ingredients are here to stay. We are also going to see people scaling back and stepping away from that over the top eyelash extension obsession and wear a more natural look. Natural lashes are ready for their comeback!”

Margina Dennis, Makeup Artist Denitra Townsend-Gregory, Makeup Artist, says, “The beauty products we will be seeing in 2020 are even more tech-savvy, personalized skincare products and treatments. Leading beauty companies are improving their existing facial sensory programs and apps to detect targeted skin issues and for more accurate complexion readings for foundation matching. Beauty subscription boxes will continue their popularity and so will face stone rollers. Additionally, men’s grooming and product marketing will increase and more advanced hair loss treatments will roll out in 2020. We’ll also see sleek facial and body hair removal tools that are easier to use and to travel with. Additionally, more DIY beauty products, such as hair color, manicure kits, facial kits, aromatherapy and self-care kits will become more popular in 2020.”

Nataliya Ogle, Founder of Style Tomes Nataliya Ogle,Founder ofStyle Tomes, shares, “We’ll be seeing many more products from beauty influencers and a lot more “unusual” color palettes. We’re moving toward beauty experimentation, so pigments will be bolder in palettes and many more loud combinations will be hitting beauty store shelves. The future looks bright. People are willing to experiment with post-Euphoria vibes. Expect to see more takes on face adhesives like gems and glitter products. Don’t be surprised if a favorite influencer or big brand releases a loose face glitter collection. Because graphic eyes dominated runways and TV shows, more people will be scouting for bright, smooth eyeliner to recreate those richly hued looks. And while colored eyeliner is nothing new, the selections will grow rapidly. Metallic texture in bright hues will have its moment. Instead of fussy individual products, expect multi-use tubes you can swipe over lids, face, and lips to create quick, bold looks.”

Irma Stefanova, Model, Fashion Blogger Irma Stefanova, Model, Fashion Blogger, and Digital PR Specialist atIndependent Fashion Bloggers说,“我认为,博中最好的产品ty trends for this upcoming year 2020 is the at-home hair removal laser. Here is why: it’s a safe home alternative to a beauty salon’s procedures. It’s a simple and comfortable device adapted for easy operation. It’s inexpensive compared to salon treatments. It’s excellent for healing acne, red spots, scars, etc. It is a trendy and innovative at-home product that provides many benefits for your appearance and beauty routines.”
