FYI: Makeup Isn’t Over

These are the looks you’ll be wearing all 2021 (even if only your Insta followers get to see ’em). By Ama Kwarteng

Oh, wait, I’m sorry.
Did you think makeup was…canceled? TBH, I can’t blame you. We’ve all seen the headlines—lipstickis irrelevant now that it’s hidden behind a mask; forget concealer, now’s the time to really focus onskincare, makeup’s cooler, younger cousin; if you’re not going anywhere IRL, what’s the point of getting made up?

It’s one of the few pleasures during this, um, less than fun time. You try swiping on a pink eyeshadow or a blinding highlighter and not cracking a smile. The vibrant shades are instant mood-boosters that make the everyday a bit more playful. Makeup isn’t over—she’s just changed (and who hasn’t this year?).

You won’t find any 15-step, contour-heavy looks below
—the trends that’ll be on your face this year won’t take forever to nail down. And to show off these looks, we tapped Salem Mitchell, the 22-year-old model who just launched a colorful collab with Wildflower Cases. In case you haven’t stalked her feed, she’s a beauty girl, through and through. While a lot of things have shifted for Salem since March 2020 (virtual castings), there’s one thing that hasn’t changed (her love of makeup). Are you ready to have some fun with makeup again? (That’s a rhetorical question.) Ahead, makeup artist Tami El Sombati breaks down the looks that’ll be e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e this year.
