2022 MAKEUP TRENDS AND TRENDS TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2023!
We had a lot of colours and, generally, bold makeup looks last year. However, we also had some trends that appealed to minimalists. But one thing that was very clear in 2022 was the fact that people were not afraid to be extra. Here are a few trends that were popular in 2022.
BOLD BLUSH
There’s no denying a pop of colour on the cheekbones can be pretty gorgeous. In 2022, we saw more flushed cheeks and blush traced across the bridge of the nose and up to the brows. The Zaron Cheeky Liquid Blush definitely came through for lovers of this trend.
SKIN-LIKE FOUNDATION

Brown Skin Foundation
The saying; ‘less is more’ had a great impact in the makeup industry, as more people opted for minimal foundation to achieve a truer-to-tone, seamless finish. Zaron Brownskin foundation was made for this sheer blend look.
SMUDGED MASCARA
Abstract but sure to draw attention. This makeup trend encourages the use of mascara beyond the lashes. The idea is to use the wand on the eyelids and desired areas on the face. The Zaron volumizing mascara, lengthening mascara and 4 in 1 wink mascara offer a variety of boldness for this trend.
GLOSSY LIPS

Maxsheen Lipgloss
Glossy with liners or a soft pop of colour was certainly in vogue throughout 2022. This trend is here to stay for a while, as we’ve seen more people embrace it than ever before. Zaron offers a wide range of glosses, from the Luxurious range to the Maxsheen range and the Sheer Lipgloss ranges.
For this year, 2023, we expect to see more innovative looks but on a skin-like foundation, of course. The bold blush, skin-like foundation and glossy lips are definitely here to stay for a while. So here are some projections of trends we expect to see in the makeup world in 2023.
1. MAKEUP INFUSED WITH SKINCARE

5 in 1 facelift
The past year saw a lot of people develop more interest in the health and look of their skin. We envisage makeup products infused with skincare ingredients this year. Imagine having a concealer that not only Contours, Conceals and Highlights but also provides skincare benefits such as hydration, brightening, anti-ageing and more! Zaron’s newest addition, the; 5 in 1 Facelift was made for this.
2. DOUBLEWINGED LINERS

This year, beauty enthusiasts will get more creative with eyeliners. The possibilities are endless, with a good eyeliner in the hands of an artist or even a rookie. We have something cooking for our Zaronistas this season.
3. PASTEL EYESHADOWS

Prime N Pop
We expect to see warmer eye looks this year. Whilst glitters are still a thing, pastel eyeshadows seem to be gradually taking the spotlight. The Zaron Prime n’ Pop Eyeshadow Palettes, especially the Woodpecker and Pelican palettes, have got you covered.
