Across the globe such services were initially provided to create ease for customers and capture market. However with time it became an integral product of almost every beauty salon.
In start all beauty salons came up with their very own interfaces where people could make online appointments and bookings and could read about them in detail. But sooner business minded people devised platforms where a large number of professionals and artists could be approached through one platform. The idea worked and today across the globe such platforms are functional. Talking about UAE alone, a large number of such platforms have emerged over time.

Trends that Murdered the Actual Essence of Beauty!
It has been a common practice of all times that beauty gurus come up with unique trends. It then becomes an obligation on women to follow these trends. Most of the time quality trends hit the floor and women go gaga over these trends. But sometimes the story is opposite. At times so bizarre trends enter the market that one thinks a thousand times before adopting them. However some loyal beauty followers consider it a moral responsibility to follow these trends. So here I bring a few beauty trends that hit the market. Some of them died soon but some were still adopted by people.
Lip plumping:
Till now all of us are aware of this trend. We have seen women going nuts over this trend initiated by Kylie Jenner. Lip pluming is a technique that makes you lips look bigger and plumper. There are several ways of doing so. Where many women adopted surgical plumping, some went for safer methods. Surgically lip filler is injected in your lips that swells and increases the size of your lips. Other safer methods and tools were also introduced in market which by suction just swells your lips for some time. But the question arises, why actually do you need big lips? I might not be able to answer this question as reasons for adopting this bizarre trend must be huge and must be associated to psychology of women adopting this trend.
Nose hair extensions:
Now this one entered the market for a short time and couldn’t stand for long. People largely criticized this trend and hence it seemed to vanish even before strengthening. After hair and lash extensions a new trend of noise hair extension was seen. A few Instagram beauty bloggers opted for this trend but reaction from public wasn’t good. This trend was to add extra hair to your noise that they are prominently visible. Anyways, the good news is that this trend didn’t go viral and we are far safe from it.
Unreasonably large eyelashes:
Long eyelashes have always been desirable. They are considered an integral beauty feature. Since long women have been using mascara to make their eyelashes look longer and healthier. Later a new trend of applying false lashes was adopted. And here comes the lash extensions. A new way of making you lashes look thicker, full and lengthy. Lash extension basically works by adding synthetic hair to you lash line. It is a long lasting and a reliable process however many times excessive lash hair and extraordinary length becomes an issue.
Pencil Drawn eyebrows:
Now this one is widely adopted and to some extent makes your face look even. However some women who like going extra over eyebrows make it look like a disaster. A few years back when sheer thin eyebrows were in trend ladies brutally trimmed off their brows. But as heavy and bushy brows trended they now devised a way out and that was by using brow pencils. This trend works both ways. It gives a beautiful dimension to your face and makes you look beautiful only if used in moderation. Overdoing or choosing a darker shade will mess it all.
Fake Freckles:
How random are some trends. In past women were anxious to get rid of freckles and were ready to adopt all methods to have a clean clear skin. But today they actually apply tattoos to get freckles. It probably has to do a lot with the thought of “Natural Beauty” but going nuts isn’t the right thing. Having freckles is one thing but tattooing them is another. So we also witnessed this trend of applying fake freckles to your face.
Acrylic Nails:
So this was a major fashion disaster when women opted for acrylic nails. Desire for long nails which are beautifully painted is understandable. But having long pointed stiletto nails is indeed unlikeable. It doesn’t stop here but the recent trend of having duck nails is a complete fail. In past the trend for nail art was at peak. Women used different nail colors and coats to enhance their hands. But with acrylic nails it went too over the edge.
Highlighter all over:
Initially when highlighter was introduced it was accepted with arms wide open. Many beauty brands launched their own highlighters and made huge profits. It was understood that highlighters were introduced to highlight then high ends of your face such as cheek bones and Nose Bridge. But the craziest thing is to pop highlighter all over your face. It not only looks bad but continuously radiates light. So it is a complete NO from our side.
In all above bizarre trends we noticed one thing and that was going extra. The basic reason for doing makeup is to enhance your beauty not ruining it. But with such awkward trends we normally tend to look unreasonable. It must always be kept in mind that fashion is what actually suits you. Every trend is not to be followed and only the ones that make you look beautiful are to be adopted. Hence to look natural and radiant avoid the above mentioned atypical trends that took the fashion world by storm.

Makeup Making History
Every single thing in this universe under goes changes. Like seasons and fashion trends, makeup trends also change. In fact significant changes can be seen if we look at makeup transitions in last few decades. Even the slightest change in makeup trend gives a unique oomph to personality. Ladies often go gaga over these changing makeup trends and readily accept them. The fashion parade never seems to stop. Since early 19’s, women have known to be the doting beauty queens with, makeup, clothes, bags and hairstyles on fleek. So here I mention some makeup trends that changed over time and were so popular that they still remain in our hearts.
Red Lips:
Ever since lip stains were introduced, red has been an all-time favorite. From 1920’s till 2018 women go with the simple trick “When in doubt, wear Red”. Red lips not only give a unique charm to your personality but also gives a trendy look. It never goes out of fashion. Women of all age groups chose red as its universality is beyond question.
Apple Cheeks:
In early 1940’s women loved to highlight their cheeks. They used pinks and dark shades on cheeks clearly naming them as “Apple cheeks”. It still is in fashion to apply blush in such a way that apples seem prominent. However in 1980’s and 1990’s, women used to apply bush with brown tones and all over their cheeks giving them slight definition. But now the purpose is being fulfilled by contouring. Hence apple cheeks are again in.
Lashes on the roll:
Long, healthy eye lashes have always been in trend. Women often desire for lashes that are voluminous. Even today when lashes are on the roll, people have devised ways to make them extensive. A special treatment named as “LASH EXTENSION” has become a life saver. Women are using this technique to get naturally long and desirable lashes.
Smoky Eyes:
We all are familiar to this term smoky eye. The ultimate parties look as well as easy to apply. The smoky eye makeup is a life saver. It originated in 1950’s and ever since remained in fashion. Women became bold and started pulling of party life with smoky eyes along with long lashes and full coverage faces. In start only black was used to smoke out, but now tones of blue and brown are also used to create subtle smoky eyes.
Lip Glosses:
Who doesn’t like shinny lips? Everyone does. In fact women go an extra mile to add gloss on their lips. Even though matt lips has been in trend for some time now but gloss was never out of fashion. With minimal makeup on face and subtle shine on lips, it is indeed a complete look. Even adding an extra shine to your tinted lips is satisfying. Hence, glossy lips is always the finest thing.
Eye Liner:
How can we forget the basic makeup item that has seen major transitions in past several decades? From cat eye to thin line and then Arabian style. Eyeliners have always been in fashion. In fact a makeup look can never be complete without it. In early 1950’s cat eye liner became extremely popular. As in that era doing extra was considered fashionable. Soon the trend shifted to a sheer line eyeliner just above the lash. Today all sorts of liners are used depending upon occasion, theme and choice.
Contouring:
The most loved thing of this decade is contouring. Makeup now a days seems incomplete without adding a warm tone contour. It not only helps in giving a precise shape to your face but also is excessively used to enhance your bone structure. Women contour their jawlines, cheek bones, fore head and nose to add dimension to their face. Contour has various aspects but significantly is used to manifest your face shape.
Glitters all over:
Glitters have been in use since early days. But the function was different. Earlier it was used to style hair, then shifted on nails, but now is directly applied on face. Earlier it was also a trend to use glittery lipsticks and blushes but using it as a highlighter and eye shadow is merely today’s fashion. It does look extra but all thanks to our makeup bloggers that have set new trends for us. Hence glitters are all over these days.
Well, all these makeup trends actually traveled from west but are readily accepted by entire world. Makeup has a strong characteristic that it helps in depicting a lot about a person. Hence these transitions not only define history but also tell us about people of those times. It is clear that trends are made to follow and we thank our beauty bloggers for introducing us to trendy looks.
