Beauty trends have been going on for decades, and now that we are more open and educated, we realize that less is more. Slowly, we are trying to break the beauty standards and spread body positivity. Today, we view beauty from different perspectives.

In the 2000s, we were so overwhelmed by the glitters, the fake tan, and the jeans underneath a dress. So in 2022, we like to keep it simple. The ‘clean’ look will leave you looking like the expensive main character you are but on a budget.

We provided the best ways to achieve the ‘clean’ look and let you in on the trend.

Clean makeup A clean makeup look would always start with a natural base. You must use dewy skin tint instead of foundation and keep it close to your skin tone. Moving on to the face, a tiny amount of cream blushes, and the bronzer brings out that glow from within. The eyes should look awake with mascara or natural falsies and brown eyeliner on the lashline. You can also add a flesh-colored eyeliner to your lower lashline. So much for brows-on-fleek. We like to keep our eyebrows fluffy with brow soap and clean them with a little bit of concealer. For the lips, lining with a pencil two shades lighter than your lip color and a sheer red gloss will make them juicy and plump. Finally, set the look with a setting spray.

Clean hairstyle A makeup look would not be complete without the hair. And for this trend, a slicked-back ponytail. This hairstyle will make you look more classy than ever. Instant facelifts are very popular in today’s age, too, and if you want to accentuate your bone structure, this look is for you. Everyone can sport this look only using a comb and hair gel.

Neutral Outfits and Timeless Pieces You can never go wrong with neutrals. Keeping your clothes in neutral tones will make you look more expensive and less try-hard. Skip the trendy pieces, and save more money with timeless ones. Style your basics into multiple outfits. A simple white tee is a perfect example. You can wear jeans with your shirt. You can also layer it with a blazer, a dress, or even lingerie. You will not have a problem choosing which shoes to wear, too. It’s that easy! Ironing clothes play a vital role in looking expensive, so make sure you do that.

Accessories Feeling too basic yet? No need to worry because what are accessories for? Match your bag chains with your jewelry. As much as possible, stick with gold or silver ones. Look badass with a pair of cat-eye sunglasses. This will frame your face. Put on a belt to make your look more stylish.
