For so many of us, putting on touches of makeup has been a major mood lifter this year. Sometimes we need a pick-me-up in the form of a little mascara or bold lipstick to combat those winter blues—especially as we continue to social distance and quarantine at home. Makeup trends haven’t stopped just because you stopped wearing makeup.
Winter 2020 makeup is all about dark lips, bright eyeliners, and loads of sparkle. We rounded up 10 makeup trends we’re loving. Scroll through to find the next look for those upcoming Zoom holiday parties.
Vampire Lips
Dark berry lips are not only gorgeous and romantic, but they will draw all the attention (in a good way) to your little square on Zoom.
Winter Glow
You don’t need sunny days to get your glow on. Pack on some liquid highlighter for a naturally dewy sheen, and pair it with a moisturizing lipgloss.
Back to Basics
Basic gets a bad rep, so we’re claiming it back. Stick to neutrals with a light matte nude shadow around the eyes and a nude lip for a simple, clean look to get you through the colder days.

Snow Queen
White eyeliner is really striking, especially on dark and deep skin tones. Pair it with a set of lush lashes and a nude lip for a fresh makeup statement.
Winter Blues
There’s nothing sad about this winter blue. This periwinkle eyeshadow is both retro and yet totally fresh, and it makes us smile to see the color used all over the lid in such a dramatic way.
Festive Glitter
Is it truly a holiday season without some sparkle? (The only answer is no). Go all out and sprinkle some glitter all over your cheeks for a super fun look that’s Zoom holiday party-approved. For a more wearable application, keep the glitter to just your lids or the inner corner of your eyes.

Dramatic Wings
We love drama—at least in our makeup looks. This ultra-winged liner is all you need to make a statement and keep the focus all on your eyes.
Minimal Lines
Leave your black eyeliners right where they are. A brighter color, like this light blue, is way less intimidating to wear over Zoom than IRL. It will brighten not only your face, but your whole mood.
’90s Revival
The ’90s resurgence isn’t going anywhere. JLo’s nude lip and liner and brown smoky eye are the perfect nod to the decade we all love.

Shade Matching
The easiest way to make a beauty statement is to stick to one shade, especially when that shade is as alluring as a deep red velvet. Match your shadow, blush, and lips—and don’t be afraid to add a little sparkle, too.
