The world of makeup is constantly evolving, and every season brings new trends. In 2024, some of the former popular techniques and styles became anti-trends. Here are five makeup techniques that you should give up in order to look stylish and relevant.

1. Excessive contouring
Contouring has been at the peak of popularity for a long time, especially thanks to icons like Kim Kardashian. However, in 2024, excessive contouring is becoming a thing of the past. Instead, natural facial features are in fashion, which are accentuated by light bronzer and blush. Too strong contours and sculptures make the face artificial and overloaded, so strive for a softer and more natural image.
2. Bright eyebrows
Heavily drawn and well-defined eyebrows are also losing their relevance. In 2024, natural, softly accentuated eyebrows are in fashion. Avoid using too dark and harsh eyebrow pencils. Instead, choose gels and shadows that will help create a light, natural eyebrow shape, emphasizing their natural beauty.
3. Glitter on the eyelids
Sequins and glitter on the eyelids were popular in previous seasons, but in 2024 this trend is giving way to more restrained and elegant eye makeup options. Shadows with a light satin or matte finish give the eyes depth and expressiveness without excessive brightness. Leave glitter for special occasions or parties, but not for everyday makeup.
