This Winged Eyeliner Trick From NYFW Only Takes 5 Minutes To Replicate
Fashion and beauty are still alive. However, like the rest of our days, everything is evolving — and the beauty looks we're used to seeing are taking a more simplistic approach. That's why the fall 2020 beauty trends seen at New York Fashion Week are those that are low-maintenance and easy to replicate at home no matter your skill level.
In years past, we've anticipated rhinestones adorning the eyes á la Pat McGrath, glitter trailing the lips, sky-high hair like that of Jawara's creations, and, in some cases, full-on face paint like what was seen at Christian Siriano Fall/Winter 2020 earlier this year. And while the makeup looks are maintaining that wow factor, they're doing so with a less-is-more approach. As our favorite designers showcase their latest, the models enlisted to do so are donning fresh complexions created with multi-use makeup, lightweight complexion products, and non-daring lip colors.
Ahead, check out the looks from digital fashion week that are equal parts dreamy, inspirational, and achievable for novices and experts alike.
