If you’re aiming to embrace this trend, take your beauty cues from the numerous examples on Instagram. For a night out, luminous clear lids can instantly become glamorous with a touch of scarlet lipstick and a flawless complexion. Meanwhile, pairing your glossy lids with luscious lashes and thin black eyeliner is a more wearable look for daytime. Try highlighting your cheeks with pale pink blush and coating your lips with ballet slipper-toned lip gloss for a glowing effect.
