SS22 Beauty Trends: Romance, Nostalgia and Glam

Hands up if you’re ready for spring? We can’t wait for the sunny weather, Easter travel and days out right around the corner. Another thing we can’t wait for is to try out the catwalk-inspired SS22 beauty trends for a fresh new look.

Fashion weeks all over the world have finally started to reappear, with in-person shows featuring everything from romantic pastels and braids to sparkly eyeshadow and body glitter that goes hand-in-hand with nineties-inspired SS22 fashion trends.

With all COVID restrictions now being lifted in the UK and life returning to the “new normal,” we’ve never been more excited to recreate these SS22 beauty trends over the next few months. Who’s with us?

SS22 Beauty Trends Romance Nostalgia and Glam

1. Plaits and Braids

First things first, plaits and braids were all over the runways this year. From nineties-inspired baby plaits at Altuzarra to embellished fishtails at Christian Siriano and beaded braids at Moschino, we’re loving these fun, romantic hairstyles.

Hair extensions and ribbons were popular additions to this trend, meaning that some plaited and braided hairdos may be easier to recreate than others. That said, it’s often just a case of practice makes perfect. If you’re finding it tough to pull these together yourself, rope in a friend to help you out.

(Let’s face it, we all have that friend who ends up doing everyone’s hair for a night out. Right?)

We’re a big fan of plaits and braids because of how perfect they are for festivals, holidays and hot temperatures (all the things we’re hoping for this spring and summer). The great thing is that as long as you can plait or braid, getting this look is easy.

Just add in a ribbon when you braid, finish off your style with an accessory of your choice or try out some hair extensions to put your own stamp of individuality on the trend.

Plaits and Braids

2. Euphoria Style Makeup

If you’re not already watching Euphoria then it’s not too late to binge (the best way to watch a series in our opinion!).

Sure, it’s over-the-top and excessive, but it’s also seriously stylish and you’ll definitely be inspired by its ethereal makeup as a result. Similar aesthetics made it onto the catwalks of Lanvin, Valentino and Anna Sui.

Think neon eye makeup, iridescent glitter, metallics and glossy eyes. You don’t need to go as OTT as the Euphoria crew, but you can add a touch of fantasy to even the most simplistic makeup aesthetic. This has actually been one of TikTok’s favourite SS22 beauty trends, so start scrolling to get some inspo.

For a straightforward Euphoria makeup recreation, pair black pencil eyeliner in a bold wing — underneath the eye rather than on the eyelid — with lashes and a glossy, metallic shadow. Top tip: using a highlighter like the Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb All-Over Veil (*) can give you the glow you need (and deserve!).

3. Statement Blush

Statement blush was mostly prominent at Anna Sui’s SS22 shows. It wasn’t subtle either, being featured on cheeks, temples and eyes as a real pop of colour.

This is a follow-on from the trend of adding a little blush to the end of the nose that came about a few years ago. And spoiler alert, we kind of enjoy it. It’s super simple, like many of our favourite makeup trends. Just grab a blush and apply liberally. That’s it.

If you want to do this trend right, scale back the rest of your makeup, go for glowing skin and let your blush do the talking — because trust us, it’s got a lot to say.

4. Pink and Peach Eyeshadow

Pink and peach eyeshadow might sound like a loud and “out there” trend, but it’s actually totally wearable. Adeam went big on pastels at New York Fashion Week, and part of this involved a wash of pink and peach on the eyes. Swoon.

Why’s it so wearable? Firstly, there’s a shade to suit everyone. Secondly, you can make it as bold or as toned-down as you like.

It couldn’t be easier to apply either. All you need to do is grab a pink or peach eyeshadow and go for it. If you want to keep it subtle, go for a lighter colour and more sheer coverage. Alternatively, go all in with pink on the peepers for a strong, feminine finish.

5. Back to the Nineties

Nineties forces returned to the beauty world a while ago now and show no signs of going anywhere in 2022. Full disclosure: we’re 100% here for it!

Get ready for a big hit of nostalgia with face gems, poker straight hair, brown lip liner, chunky highlights, French tips and body glitter. Think Gwen Stefani and the Spice Girls with a dash of TLC.

Heading to a festival? You’re going to relish nodding to this decade with some stick-on face jewels or a little bit of body glitter. TikTok has gone wild for hair and body glitter for nights out so FYI it’s not just a look that’s strictly for festivals.

(Just be prepared to be finding glitter everywhere for weeks on end. You know what we’re talking about…)

For super-sleek nineties-influenced hair, make sure you apply some heat protector and crack out the GHD Original Straighteners (*). Booyah!

6. Indie Glam

Don’t let us stop you from rocking grungier makeup if you’re feeling something other than baby pink this season. Who says that you need to only wear pastels just because it’s spring (or summer)?

Truth be told, lip stains (*) were spotted at Coach and Mark Fast’s catwalk shows, and are an easy way to get in on the alternative makeup scene.

Smokey eyes have also been dominating some of the runways, albeit a little lighter than a full-on smoked-out look. Recreating this is easy and can be as subtle as you like. Try a smokey eye palette (*) and use the different shades to add depth and build up the colour.

Indie Glam

7. Wet Look Hair

Wet look hair seems to return to the hair scene every few years, and it’s back as one of the key SS22 beauty trends. Reigning supreme at Miu Miu and Balenciaga, it couldn’t be easier to get this catwalk style.

You don’t need to go for the “freshly dunked” aesthetic for it to make an impact. Slick your hair back from your face with pomade or gel for an easy, glossy glam. It’s actually surprisingly wearable and makes for a traffic-stopping appearance when teamed with a tailored two-piece suit or a chic oversized blazer with high-waisted jeans.

We love.

8. Glossy Lips

This one never really went away for us, but lip gloss is officially on-trend again for SS22 (and we couldn’t be happier). Shiny lips were over the catwalks of Dior, Giorgio Armani and Fendi, taking centre stage when it comes to spring or summer makeup.

This is probably the simplest trend on the list. All you need to do is grab a clear lip gloss to wear over your favourite lip colour, or try out a lip oil (*) for the glisten without the stickiness. Sold.

Finding the SS22 Beauty Trends That Align With Your Style

When it comes to SS22 beauty trends, we think there’s something to suit everyone (whatever your makeup or styling skills). Spring cleaning your hair and makeup couldn’t be more effortless, so there’s never been a more perfect time to try out a couple of trends and rejuvenate your beauty routine this season.

Let us know which ones are the winners!

Barbie Girl 👱🏻‍♀️💄 A tailored bla Barbie Girl 👱🏻‍♀️💄 
A tailored blazer and shorts co-ord is one of my fave summer outfits for smart-casual occasions like drinks with the girls, date night or a fancy dinner.
(I wore this hot pink one recently for a bottomless brunch in York! ⬆️🥂)
I’m loving bright colours at the moment (can’t beat a bit of dopamine dressing) so chose to team this suit set with a white lace-trim cami and a white shoulder bag for that fresh, summery look.
I then opted for gold jewellery and block-heeled sandals to add warmth and a touch of glamour to the ensemble. ☀️💅🏼
Are you a fan of summer suit sets?

They’re so comfy and soft. They’re also super stretchy (more like jeggings than jeans) and come in petite and tall sizes. 👌🏻
Not to mention, they’re that brilliant white that looks so fresh and cute in the summer.

Can’t beat a bit of dopamine dressing. 🌈 You Can’t beat a bit of dopamine dressing. 🌈
You may have heard other bloggers and influencers talking about dopamine dressing and how it’s a big trend for 2022 - but what exactly is it? 🤔
Simply put, dopamine dressing is all about choosing outfits with bold patterns and bright colours that will give you a rush of dopamine and therefore improve your mood.
After all, dopamine is the feel-good neurotransmitter that helps us feel pleasure as part of the brain’s reward system. 💰
By dressing happier, studies show that we will feel happier. (And who couldn’t use a happiness boost every now and again, right?) 🤗 
So, how can you dress happier? I’ll say it again… rainbow outfits and loud-and-proud patterns.
Case in point: these three examples. ➡️
Which is your favourite - 1, 2 or 3?

Get glowing skin today!🤩 [Ad] When the @dkglo Get glowing skin today!🤩
[Ad]
When the @dkglowycosmetics range landed on my doorstep, I wasn’t convinced it was going to work for me.
Nothing else had.
I’ve had sensitive skin ever since I was a teen struggling with acne. Being on antibiotics for two years eliminated one problem (the spots) but caused another.
It had messed with the balance of the natural oils in my skin, resulting in redness and dryness that didn’t ever go away.
Until now.
Let me walk you through the products that have been a game-changer for my skin.👉🏻
1. Gentle Cleansing Foam
This cleanser cleans the skin without disrupting its natural pH balance. It features:
* Rose water to soothe
* Camomile to soften
* Calendula to neutralise free radical damage (linked to ageing)
The formula is super fluffy and smells divine.😍
2. Balancing Toner
This toner contains:
* Calming rose water
* Moisturising hyaluronic acid
* Replenishing cloudberry
I use it once a week and my skin feels refreshed and looks radiant afterwards.
3. Skin Protecting Moisturizing Cream
This moisturiser contains ingredients that work together to strengthen the skin’s natural defences for a younger, healthier complexion, such as: 
* Ceramides
* Vitamin C
* Hyaluronic acid
I love how my skin becomes smooth and hydrated after use.
4. Skin Protecting Anti-Pollution Serum
This concentrated antioxidant gel protects the skin from environmental pollutants.
It contains alchemilla extract to help prevent premature ageing.
My skin used to look dull and tired. Now when I mix the moisturiser and serum, it looks bright and youthful (without feeling greasy).
5. Skin-Reviving Night Cream
This product smells so good! It contains antioxidants and collagen-boosting ingredients like:
* Hyaluronic acid
* Sea buckthorn
* Alteromonas ferment extract
Since using this cream, I’ve noticed a big difference in my skin’s hydration levels and plumpness. It gives me the much-desired glow that DK_GLOWY is known for!
I honestly can’t recommend these products enough for any skin type - all the ingredients are organic and sustainably sourced.🌊

Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you ri Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer. 💰
Money and material possessions don’t equal wealth in my eyes.
Sure, travel can be a big strain on your finances, but it provides you with so many invaluable things in abundance. 🤩
In a nutshell, travel:
- Enriches your experience of life and the world
- Allows you to learn something new about yourself from every unique adventure
- Educates you and gives you knowledge and life skills that you can’t get from books or school
- Allows you to meet people of different nationalities and cultures and share experiences
- Gives you priceless memories, friendships and relationships
(I mean, I ultimately got my husband out of one of my international trips!)
Just remember that you can always make money. You can’t always make memories.
And that’s just my two pence this #traveltuesday. ✌🏻

It’s tough having sensitive skin, but it’s even tougher trying to find products you can incorporate into your everyday skincare routine that won’t aggravate it. 🙄
As a teen, I struggled with acne. As an adult, I’ve struggled with dryness and redness. ❌
I’m thankful I’ve found @dkglowycosmetics, an organic skincare line with COSMOS-approved ingredients that have been sustainably sourced from land and sea. 🌊
This range has honestly revolutionised my skincare routine. 🙌🏻
In three short months, the texture and appearance of my skin has improved. It feels smoother and firmer with more elasticity. 
It also looks less red, clearer and more hydrated, meaning that most days I’m happy to go makeup-free (unlike before my DK_GLOWY glow!). 🫣
Here are the products I apply every day.
MORNING:
1. Gentle Cleansing Foam (1-2 pumps)
2. Balancing Toner (five-pence piece)
3. Skin Protecting Moisturizing Cream (1-2 pumps) mixed with
4. Skin Protecting Anti-Pollution Serum (2-3 drops)
EVENING:
1. Gentle Cleansing Foam (1-2 pumps)
2. Skin-Reviving Night Cream (1-2 pumps)
