The bright side of being stuck at home for the past few months is that many people have more time to try new things. Whether that’s trying new recipes or experimenting with makeup, many people have been able to improve their skills in different areas of their lives.

A new year brings a wider variety of makeup trends to master, and what better way to start 2021 with a pop of color! Trends from the early 2000s and ’90s have been making a comeback, and many people all over social media have been seen wearing bright eyeshadows and eyeliners similar to makeup looks from earlier years.

Since masks cover half of your face, getting creative with eyeshadow and eyeliner can be a way to spice up your look. Some popular eyeliner styles most people seem to rave about are the fox eye, graphic eye, and cat-eye.

These eyeliner styles encourage people to draw more than just a simple wing. Whether you use a colored eyeliner or a plain black one, you can never go wrong with a bold eye look. You can find inspiration for this from celebrities and models such as James Charles or Bretman Rock.

When the present feels too overwhelming, looking back to rely on nostalgic beauty trends brings a much-needed sense of ease. From neon blue to glittering pink, playing with brighter colors is a safe and easy way to boost your mood when social distancing brings you down.

Whenever you are feeling bored and hopeless during these challenging times, trying new things and getting out of your comfort zone is sure to boost your mood and confidence!
