Help! I Need a New Makeup Look

A new year equals new resolutions! Whether you’re looking to excel in your career, better your health or find a new hobby, January is a month of change.

One of the greatest changes we can make is to prioritize ourselves—our mental health, physical fitness and the way we feel in our own skin. Sometimes, that can mean a bit of an outward refresh so that you look AND feel strong, beautiful and ready to take on the world! 🌎

At The Lash Lounge The Colony – Castle Hills, we’re all about empowering our guests to make positive changes in their life and appearance. This year, we’ve compiled a list of new year makeup trends and ideas to help you start 2022 on the right foot.

From a makeup look refresh to a new set of lash extensions, now is the time to make a change.

Love Your Style with A New Year Makeover

Changing your style with a new makeup look doesn’t have to be flashy or expensive if you’re in or near The Colony. It should be a change that makes you feel comfortable and confident.

A style change can be show-stopping, like trying an unexpected lip color or changing up your brow shape. Your look could also be something subtle that simply has the goal of helping you find an easier and quicker morning makeup routine, like lash and brow tinting to save you from the daily mascara and eyebrow pencil work.

The Foundations of Your New Makeup Style

When it comes to finding the contemporary style that’s right for YOU there are three foundational pillars your new makeup style should accomplish:

Makeup brushes, foundation, mascaras, candles, and an eyeshadow palette
  1. Your style must make you feel confident! If your new look doesn’t make you feel like yourself or takes you too far out of your comfort zone, don’t force it. Your style should make you feel like the best version of you, making you comfortable and PROUD to be in your skin.
  2. Your fresh look should be something you can easily incorporate into your routine. It shouldn’t be a hassle or something you dread. Let’s make 2022 the year about doing things for yourself because you WANT to, not because you feel like you should.
  3. Does it bring you joy? Apart from helping you find confidence, look for changes that bring you joy and give you even more reason to smile back at yourself in the mirror.

Ready to find a fresh makeup look to test this year? The Lash Lounge The Colony – Castle Hills would love to help with that. See the ideas we’ve pulled that can easily fit into your existing routine and give you a boost in 2022!

Experiment with Lip Colors

If you’re looking for a change that doesn’t require a permanent adjustment but is sure to be noticed, try a new lip color. Maybe this is a bold red lip, a nude or a soft pink. 💄 Whatever shade calls your name, this is officially the sign you’ve been waiting for to give it a go!

Care for Your Eyebrows

Eyebrows help frame your face, accentuate your eyes and can be shaped to flatter your features. Commit to styled brows and boost their natural shape with brow threading. This will give your eyebrows not only a fresh look but definition that will make your eyes shine!

Threading and our other brow services can offer lasting results and keep you from spending time trying to perfect them each day. Ready to up your brow game in 2022? Let our team help you discover which service best fit your brow ambitions.

Make a Statement With Eyeshadow

From pastels to metallics, vivid eyeshadows (with little gradient or blending) are trending this year and are sure to make you feel fun and fresh. Bright pastels—think pearlescent hues of blue and pink—can be worn year-round in The Colony to liven up your look. They also fall in line with those feel-good vibes we’re all reaching for this year!

Metallic eyeshadows, especially in shades of brown or nude, are a trend that’s suitable to make anyone look glam. You can make this trend fit for you by choosing different neutral shades and applying them in a way that is as bold or subtle as you like. Discovering an eyeshadow, you love is all about experimenting. 🤩 So have fun each day as you apply and find new eyeshadow looks and colors to love!

Boost Your Lashes

Looking to gain a newfound confidence in the way you present yourself in 2022? Enhance your lashes with a new lash look! Whether searching for a statement-making look or simply a change that will make your daily makeup routine lower maintenance, there’s a customizable lash option for everyone.

See below for the lash services we recommend for you in 2022. Then, if you need help deciding which service is best for you,  consult with a lash technician at The Lash Lounge The Colony – Castle Hills.

  • Lash extensions with a variety of customizable options including choosing your application, curl, type (silk or mink) and fullness factor.
  • Lash lifts to enhance the curl of your natural lashes!

Go for Sparkling

As Y2K beauty continues to make its way into our current beauty trends, you can’t go wrong with some sparkle! 🌟 Consider glittery eye makeup such as eyeshadow or eyeliner. Adding a little shimmer to your face with a highlighter that has a touch of sparkle is sure to give your look a glow. Then, if you want to go back to your lip color selections, think about a gloss with some sparkle. The glitz and glow from these dazzling makeup options is sure to give you a new lease on life and an extra pep in your step!

Makeup Isn’t Everything, Confidence is Key

Make 2022 the year of YOU! Give yourself the time to find a new makeup style—a look that makes you feel excited, fearless and beautiful. 💖 Remember: The Lash Lounge The Colony – Castle Hills is ready and waiting to help you reach any and all of your lash and brow goals!
