The top 4 luxury beauty trends we expect to see in 2020

By Lexi Goodland   |  

The world of beauty is omnipresent and everchanging. Every year we say goodbye to a host of beauty trends while we welcome the new ones through the door, and with 2019 coming to a close ever so soon, we start to ponder what beauty trends we might see emerging in the upcoming year.

More often than not, we now see a convergence between the world of beauty and the world of health, where these two industries actually walk hand in hand more often than they walk apart. It comes as no surprise then that the top four luxury beauty trends we are expecting to see in 2020 might also just help you out in the health department as well!

Sustainable beauty products

From lipsticks, to moisturisers, to body washes, to foundations, it comes as no surprise in this day and age that one of the top beauty and health trends we expect to see next year are sustainable products. With the every-growing societal attitudes towards saving the planet in any way we can, it was only a matter of time before we saw these attitudes start to cement themselves in beauty and health products.

Over the past few years, we have seen a gradual increase in brands producing vegan and cruelty-free products in recyclable materials including luxury brands Kjaer Weis, Tata Harper and La Bouche Rouge, and this year, we expect this trend continue strong. Vegan, vegetarian, cruelty-free, recyclable and sustainable are all the qualities to strive for in your beauty and health products for 2020.

Laser hair removal

Unwanted body hair is a problem both women and men face and dealing with it on a day to day basis can often be time consuming and really quite annoying. This is where laser hair removal comes to the rescue.

Say goodbye to morning shaving in the shower and painful body waxes, laser hair removal is a very successful treatment that uses laser energy to destroy hair follicles so your hair will grow back finer and much less frequently!

That is why we predict laser hair removal to be a major beauty trend next year. Who wouldn’t say no to hair free legs? At Therapie Clinic, a leading provider of laser hair removal and aesthetic treatments, you can find all the information you will need on protocol, procedures and prices, for both women and men, before you get you appointment booked.

A bold lip

A statement lip colour has never been out of style, but if the recent Spring 2020 catwalks were anything to go by, you can certainly expect to see even more chic and daring painted lips this year. If you are striving for a look of simple sophistication, then you have found your answer here.

High pigmented shades were all the rage at Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Oscar de la Renta and Paco Rabanne in bright reds and deep burgundies, ultra-mattes and super glosses, a quick and easy way to add a pop of colour to a natural, clean face for a striking and eye-catching look. Try Chanel’s Rouge Coco Flash in Phénomène for something sultry and mysterious, or Christian Louboutin’s Velvet Matte in Altressa for a kissable, vibrant red.

A wholesome skincare routine

Another trend spotted at the Spring 2020 fashion shows, that we are sure to see make its way into the new year, was a dewy, post-facial glow. Rather than lathering the make up on, models were seen sporting a stripped back, au naturel look with heavy make up taking a back seat allowing their true beauty to shine through.

Luxury fashion houses, including Burberry, Stella McCartney, Nina Ricci and Valentino welcomed skincare experts backstage to give models facials before they strutted down the catwalk.

If natural beauty is making a comeback then we can only assume a great skincare routine will be a booming trend next year. Gentle exfoliation, a toning wipe and a light moisturiser are the trinity you need for that beautiful, glowing skin.
