The pandemic taught us, makeup enthusiasts, to think out of the box. With nowhere to go and no one to meet, we could give given up on makeup entirely. But how could we? For some of us, makeup is a form of self-expression and an extension of our personality! It would be a shame to give it all up because of this virus. But we didn’t. On the contrary, we adapted.
Putting creativity to work, we’ve started to explore other ways to flaunt our makeup. With masks covering the lower half of our face, it becomes only natural to highlight the part that isn’t- the eyes! From neon eyeshadows to graphic liners, we used colour and art to express ourselves. Interestingly, there’s another way to do that, and that involves your ears! Allow us to introduce you to ear makeup.
Will Ear Makeup Become A Major Beauty Trend In 2021?
It’s too early to say yes. However, there is a possibility that this trend could spread on like wildfire on our social media feeds. Popularised by a Cambridge U.K. based Makeup Artist named Martha Butterwork, she is one of the first MUAs to play around with this trend. She uses makeup, stickers, small objects, divine figures and temporary tattoos to create ear beauty looks. Here, see for yourself!
