The Big Beauty Trends Of 2022

Writer's picture: ScribeScribe

We head into 2022 with the same COVID concerns, we had last year. So where will beauty go among it all? The beauty industry hasn't slapped on a pair of proverbial sweatpants just yet, in fact the optimism of better days being on the horizon is more evident in the beauty trends of 2022 than anywhere else. After a long period of hard hitting research we've rounded up the top trends you’ll start seeing on your Instagram feed this year.....



Glossy Lids

After a long hiatus from getting glammed up, people are going to want to shine. Glossy eyes are the new dewy skin of 2022.

'90's Lips

What goes around comes around. And the '90's dark lip liner look has definitely come around. We started seeing this trend a few years back thanks to Kylie Jenner's pre-Lip Kit days, but instead of more fully opaque, pinky nude shades, we’re entering an era filled with brown lip liners and sheer glosses. Opt for a brown two to three shades deeper than your natural lip colour, but get creative on the gloss - a little shimmer goes a long way.

Soft Skin

2022 won’t be all dewy or all matte. We’ll see an uptick in skin that is natural and smooth. It looks soft and supple, just like natural skin with a touch of tinted moisturizer on.

Soap Brows


Soap brows refer to the style of feathered brows, brushed-up brows that appear to be full and fluffy. Contrary to the pencil-thin brow era of the 90s, in recent years the beauty world has witnessed a craze surrounding the coveted aesthetic of thick brows. And one of the easiest ways to achieve this look is by using the soap brow method. A few years ago, makeup stylists and beauty gurus began to realize that soap can be used as an effective primer to set brows in place in an elongated shape, ultimately creating a fluffy appearance. However, brow gel provides an equally feathered brow style that appears full and fluffy.

Dramatic Eyeliner

Coloured eyeliner and intense fox shaped liner are set to be the red lip of 2022. Any and all eyeliner will continue in 2022, but we’ll see a rise in dramatic variations, particularly wings that extend much past the eye or wrap around through the crease for a ’60s flare.

A Pop Of Glitter

That insatiable need to get glammed up coupled with a return to Y2K styles means that glitter is back! Many celebs are taking highlighter to an extra level by using glitter instead, a subtle pop of glitter layered on top of a striking shade of eyeshadow can also go a long way.

Celebratory Lipstick

Fresh, summery-spring makeup that screams of us being able to get out in the world and just have fun is what 2022 is all about. Pops of pink are predicted to rule 2022 all year long, and we couldn't be more excited! Although we've just started the year, our minds are already set on spring and summer, when shades of rose, fuchsia, and magenta will be in full bloom.
