UK beauty and hair supplier Salon Services held the Sally’s SS19 Showcase for beauty pros and press, to forecast the 2019 trends in make-up that clients will be queuing up to get as soon as spring arrives.
Inspired by the season’s boldest trends, Salon Services’ experts interpreted SS19 predictions to bring out clients’ confidence. The trends are about expressing individuality and putting your creativity in the limelight.
Sally Salon Services's MUA Georgia Cutts reveals her step-by-step guide to "no make-up" make-up:
While this season’s make-up has a matte, neutral finish, it can be emboldened with a slick of metallic colour on the eyelids. However, the "no make-up" make-up look is set to see a huge resurgence in popularity during the warmer months, with flawless, bright skin and flirty lashes predicted to be the look of the season, and the best thing about this look? Natural beauty suits everyone.
Step 1 – Begin by prepping skin with your favorite primer
Step 2 – Next, use a compact foundation to form a natural base on the skin. Cutts used Bodyography’s Base Silk Cream
Step 3 – Use a contour palette such as Contour Cosmetics to add definition to the cheekbones
Step 4 – Finish the look with Bodyography’s Blur, Set, Perfect Finishing Powder to create a matte finish
Step 5 – For the lips, apply the shade Sticks & Stones from the Palladio Ombré 2-in-1 Lip Colour collection
Step 6 – For the eyes, use a matte terracotta shade, and then highlight with a pearlescent peach. Cutts used Killer then Boogie & Dream On from Bodyography's Disco ‘Til Dawn palette
Step 7 – Finish by using the Ardell Beauty Mega Volume Never Flat Mascara to open up the eyes and complete the look.
Sally Salon Services's MUA Georgia Cutts reveals her step-by-step guide to bold smokey eyes:
The timeless smoky eye is getting a revamp this spring, using dark, silvery shades and bronze hues, to suit all clients. Team a dramatic shimmery eye with a nude lipstick to add subtle shimmer and let the eyes do the work.
Step 1 – Use a concealer with a flat brush to map out and define the shape of the wing
Step 2 – Apply a shimmering olive-toned pressed eyeshadow onto the lid, packing on the colour using a stiff brush. Cutts used shade Psyche from the Bodyography Disco ‘Til Dawn Palette
Step 3 – Next, apply Ardell Beauty Faux Mink Multi- Layering Mascara in Supreme Black to the top lashes
Step 4 – Lightly brush the brows with Ardell Brow Confidentil Brow Duo to add texture
Step 5 – Use a concealer to cover any imperfections and keep the look light and natural
Step 6 – Finish with a translucent powder, highlighter and a nude lipstick.
