Beauty trends, just as fashion trends, start on the runway, where makeup artists who work on the backstage, create new beauty looks for the biggest names in fashion. The Spring/Summer 2016 looks from the Paris, Milan, London and New York Fashion Week runways are clearly forecasting the hair and makeup trends for the upcoming season. While no one is really sure if certain trends, like contouring and highlighting, will survive, there is a strong consensus on what will be the biggest trend in 2016 – a fresh, radiant, flawless complexion.
Dewy, healthy-looking skin is very much in vogue this year. While past makeup trends have favored heavy foundation, concealing, and contouring (think Kim Kardashian!), this year’s major trend revolves around perfectly fresh, moisturized, smooth, and bright complexion. Natural skin and its healthy glow are the biggest beauty trend of 2016! This means investing in high-quality skincare products, beauty oils, and moisturizers, and teaming them up with different concealer shades to minimize any skin imperfections. Since makeup artist swear by color conceals, here are some tips on how to properly apply them: Understanding Color Correcting Concealers.

A number of major beauty brands have already released their color correcting products, and some of them are even offering more innovative formats. Marc Jacobs Beauty, for example, presents the Beauty Cover(t) Stick Color Corrector, in a pocket-size stick format. The corrector is available in three different marbleized hues, to brighten dullness, neutralize redness, and even out the skin tone. Available at Sephora for $42.00.
Soon to launch is the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Wipeout Color-Correcting Palette, which is all-in-one palette, packed with six different hues, to correct discolorations, contour, and brighten up skin. The palette is coming soon to Sephora, where it retails for $45.00.
Building upon the success of its foundation revolution, the house of Lancôme introduces its Miracle CC Cushion Color Correcting Primer, which is inspired by the Miracle Cushion Foundation. A unique cushion sponge is soaked in a liquid formula to deliver blendable coverage in four different shades. Each of them targets one of the major skin concerns: redness, discoloration, dullness, and dark circles. Available now at Sephora for $39.50.
Urban Decay is also joining in with its Naked Skin Color Correcting Fluid, a collection of five colored fluid formulas to blur the look of imperfections, while leaving skin illuminated and bright. The formula is enriched with light-diffusing pearlescent pigments, antioxidant-rich Vitamin C, and nourishing Vitamin E. Available at Sephora for $28.00 per shade.
Finally, the high-end brand Yves Saint Laurent presents its Touche Éclat Neutralizers, a special colored version of its highlighter that targets and counterbalances color imperfections. Its main advantage is the easy-to-use, one-click brush that precisely targets the problem zone. The Neutralizers are priced at $38.00, and they are available at Sephora.
