Yes, we do have an affinity towards matte makeup, but gloss just hits different. That high shine effect instantly steals the spotlight and its luxurious reflective abilities do many favours for our facial bone structure. With trends like glazed skin and lip oils being all over the internet, we are noticing a shift towards glossy finishes and we aren’t complaining. It’s glossy, not greasy and ever so beautiful. A gloss was also huge in the early ’00s, we daresay we’re seeing a resurgence of this finish thanks to the noughties aesthetic that’s making a comeback. But of course, we can’t just hop on to a trend without some solid inspo now, can we? These fashion-forward celebrities are loving gloss and serving some serious face on that front. Take a cue from these stunning celeb-inspired makeup looks that will convince you to go glossy this season.
Celebrities Sported These Glossy Makeup Looks
Twinkle, Twinkle
The gorgeous Hailey Beiber has been an advocate of dewy plump skin since the beginning and she also loves keeping her lips glazed to perfection on the daily. This makeup look featuring metallic blue eyeliner, twinkly eyeshadow, dewy skin, and glossy pink lips makes a case for that glossed effect and we love how trendy and cool it looks.
Star Power
We can’t get over how fabulous Disha Patani looks in this glowy makeup aesthetic. Her skin is dewy and highlighted to the max and her eyes feature a glittery blue eyeliner that amplifies her glow. Don’t miss how she rocks clear gloss on her lips and looks absolutely stunning.
Halo Gaze
Camila Cabello never fails to impress with her unique and experimental makeup choices. This time she puts the spotlight on her lids with a holographic liquid eyeshadow pigment and pairs it with moisturised and muted lips.
Insta Baby
Shanaya Kapoor knows exactly how to ace that clean-girl makeup aesthetic; here’s proof! Her skin is dewy and plump with a fruity blush, tightlined eyes, and a sumptuous coral pink lip gloss.
Definition Pro
What a wonderful way to highlight that pout! Shay Mitchell wears a dark lip liner to outline her lips and fills in colour with a pink shade. The gloss coat on the top just makes her pucker pop and look so voluminous. She even used the same approach of definition on her lids by contouring the crease with a dark brown eyeshadow and a nude shade is applied to the centre of her lids.
Angelic Glow
Ariana Grande gives us some ethereal makeup inspo using pretty gloss notes. Her lids are kept shimmery matte in a holographic white shade, and her lips are the star of the show as it’s prepped with pink lipstick and topped with a frosty shimmer lip gloss.
Wet & Wild
Megan Fox looks like a painting with her wavy wet locks and gilded gold lids. Her skin is balanced with a healthy glow and her lips showcase a creamy pink gloss to tie the look together.
Swiping through these celebrity makeup looks, we are already sold on the idea of bringing back the gloss. Which of these are your favourite looks?
