Hair & Beauty Trends for the Party Season
For the festive season, trends embrace the colours and ambience of December party nights. Hair colour takes on midnight hues on an almost cosmic level for both men and woman. Women’s hairstyles are slicked-back glam with an expensive feel whereas men’s hair is swept forward into a textured wet-look fringe. Gold leaf and decals adorn black glossy nails giving an air of sophistication and eye makeup is mesmerising in aqua metallic and glitter.
The Beauty Edit brings you the season’s hottest beauty finds straight from social media to store and online. Inspired by what’s trending now, we’ll fill your beauty basket with cult cosmetics and coveted new brands including Contour Cosmetics, Bodyography and Nails Inc’s hot new lip hit INC.redible. Style yourself like a blogger and re-create flawless, on-trend looks.

Down to Earth
This seasons’ trends are down to earth and inspired by the wild textures and shades of nature that are in full-force at this time of year. Women’s hair is natural with a touch of rebellion and hair colour is an intense shade of red and orange that is painted on for a fiery finish. Nails are natural with delicate detail placed sparingly for a minimalist yet striking effect whereas makeup contrasts this with lips drenched in high shine burgundy colours and eyes making a statement in deep plum and metallic berry shades.
