• Blurred skin

  

  Filters are out and real-life blurred skin is in. People are embracing natural, soft-focus complexions that mimic the effect of a beauty filter, she said.

• Glam is back

  

  While the “clean girl” aesthetic remains popular, full glam is making a comeback, Kattan said in a TikTok video. Think matte finishes with a soft, velvety sheen for a modern take on classic glamour.

• Cushion foundations

  

  Cushion foundations are set to become a mainstream staple in the West. Though already popular in the Middle East, the trend is finally gaining traction globally, Kattan believes. 

• Blurred lips

  

  Kattan said that lip stains combined with blurred lip liner are becoming a major trend, creating a soft, diffused look.

• Monomatte eyes

  

  Single-color eyeshadow looks — whether white, brown, black, or bold shades — are trending.

• Baseless glitter

  

  Kattan said that colorless glitter is gaining popularity on the eyes, while shimmer in general is expanding beyond the face into body makeup.
