The Most Sought Out Makeup Tips of 2025
The beauty landscape in 2025 is all about enhancing natural beauty, prioritizing skin health, and embracing soft, effortless glam. Below are the some of the trends and the sought-after makeup tips to achieve that fresh, radiant look: Skin-First Beauty
Healthy, glowing skin takes center stage, with more people focusing on skin care over heavy makeup:
Skin tints over full-coverage foundations for a breathable, second-skin finish.
Hydrating primers and skin-boosting ingredients like niacinamide and peptides infused into makeup.
Dewy, fresh finishes replacing overly matte or cakey looks.
The “No-Makeup” Makeup Look
A refined version of the clean girl aesthetic, but even softer. Key techniques include:
Minimal complexion products – think tinted moisturizers and lightweight concealers.
Fluffy, natural brows using clear gels or tinted brow serums.
Soft, monochromatic tones on eyes, cheeks, and lips for a harmonious glow.
Blurred Lips & Tinted Balms
Harsh lip liners and overdrawn lips take a backseat to hydrated, diffused color:
Sheer, natural lip tints replacing ultra-matte finishes.
Lip oils infused with skincare benefits for hydration + shine.
According to Allure “Bold berry hues dominating store shelves through the new year. Try using the same lip shade on the cheeks for a more monochromatic approach.”
Soft-Focus Blush & Natural Contouring
Blush and bronzer techniques are more subtle and seamlessly blended:
Watercolor blush applied high on the cheeks for a youthful glow.
Cream bronzers softly melted into the skin instead of harsh sculpting.
A touch of warmth over definition, focusing on enhancing bone structure.
Light & Luminous Eyes
Gone are the heavy, structured eye looks—2025 is all about fresh, dreamy lids:
Subtle shimmer or satin-finish eyeshadows for a soft glow.
Brown mascaras and softer liners for definition without harshness.
Barely-there, fluttery lashes instead of thick, dramatic falsies.
Elevated eye looks
Up your game with soft washes of muted colors on the lids, then add a subtle graphic liner or a metallic eyeliner wing.
From Allure, the blues are trending: “shadow in midnight onto the lids and buffed out the edges for a diffused effect that looked both casual and elegant.”
Glazed & Glossy Everything
Hydration and luminosity are key, with:
Glazed skin finishes using balmy highlighters (no chunky glitter).
Glossy lids and lips for a fresh, healthy glow.
Hydrating mist sprays to refresh makeup throughout the day.
Nail Trends 2025
At this point, you've probably heard about Mocha Mousse, Pantone’s 2025 color of the year. According to Bazar, “the warm, creamy brown is a versatile neutral that will become a staple.”Mocha Mousse feels grounded and comforting, making it a natural fit for a year focused on simplicity and warmth. We like Dazzle Dry Broadway Beige (available in our salon).
Chrome nails
Chrome has stood the test of time, futuristic or more subtle glazed donut nails provide many options.
Velvet nails and magnetic gels
Bazar also predicts these will continue their rise this year. People will gravitate toward them for their soft shimmer that moves with the light.
2025 is all about enhancing, not masking—a celebration of naturally radiant beauty with lightweight textures and skin-loving ingredients. Reminder: A good skincare routine is crucial to achieving a flawless makeup look! Questions? Our Forbici estheticians, makeup specialists and nail technicians are here for you!
Hollywood-Approved Makeup Tips You Can Try at Home
Want to keep that red carpet glow even after your salon visit? Here are some pro-approved makeup tips to enhance your glam factor at home:
Flawless, Radiant Skin: Start with a hydrating primer to create a smooth canvas, then use a luminous foundation to achieve that lit-from-within glow. Don’t forget a touch of highlighter on your cheekbones, nose, and Cupid’s bow for a fresh, youthful radiance.
Sultry, Statement Eyes: Blend neutral, shimmery tones for a soft, smoky effect or go bold with a winged liner. A volumizing mascara or a set of wispy lashes will add instant drama.
The Perfect Red Lip: Find a red shade that complements your skin tone—blue-based reds for cooler undertones, orange-reds for warmer complexions. Exfoliate, line, and fill in with a long-lasting formula for a classic, kiss-proof pout.
Set & Glow: Finish with a setting spray for a long-lasting, photo-ready finish. For an extra touch of glam, add a spritz of luminous body mist on your décolletage and shoulders.
