Beauty bingo: How many trends did you try this year?

As the year comes to a close, it’s worth looking back at more than just the smorgasbord of hair, makeup and nail trends that made waves—it’s also about what they say about us. From blurred lips to ghost waves, a relaxed, undone approach quietly defined our beauty choices. The shift away from overly polished finishes reflects a growing desire for authenticity and ease. After all, beauty trends can highlight who you are, but they never change it. With that in mind, these are the standout hair, makeup and nail trends of 2025—how many made it onto your bingo card?

ETUDE HOUSE Dear Darling Water Tint - 02 Cherry Ade (9g)

Back from a sun-drenched escape and now feeling a little less sun-kissed? Dab some of this viral water tint that will turn your cheeks and lips into the ripest cherries. Etude House is one of the first K-beauty brands to have introduced a water tint. This berry-infused tint does more than merely stain the lips; it hydrates, leaving a supple pout. Its lightweight, watery texture gets quickly absorbed into the skin, giving you a back-from-the-island rosy glow. Moreover, the colour doesn’t just flirt with your skin for a moment and then disappears into the ether. It’s in it for the long haul, ensuring you stay in that tropical state of mind for a little longer.
New to K-beauty? Here are our 9 favourites to cop now

Achieve that fresh, just-bitten lip look with this vibrant water tint. The lightweight formula provides a natural flush of colour that lasts all day, while the Cherry Ade shade—a juicy red—complements all skin tones. Perfect for creating effortless, everyday looks or layering under a gloss for extra shine.

Pro tip: Apply in thin layers for buildable colour, and top with a clear gloss for a plump, dewy finish.

Want a natural pop of colour that lasts through the countdown? This kiss-proof, lightweight tint is your go-to. Whether you’re aiming for fresh-faced or full-glam, it melts into your skin for a lit-from-within flush that won’t quit.

10 crowd-favourite cherry lipsticks that you can buy for less during the Tira Turns Two sale

Ever wondered what your lips would look like after a day of foraging for cherries in the countryside? ETUDE HOUSE’s lip and cheek tint has the answer. The fruity hue delivers the just-bit-into-a-cherry effect with a lightweight texture that stays put for hours without feeling heavy on the skin.

8 hybrid Korean essentials that serve as both makeup and skincare

This bestselling water tint by Etude House offers a fresh burst of colour and hydration. The water-based, vitamin- and berry fruit-enriched formula delivers buildable pigment that never feels dehydrating. The genius lies in its watery composition, absorbing into the skin without leaving a tacky residue. For a great finish, line your lips with a liner before applying at the centre directly from the doe-foot applicator. Or blend around the edges for the iconic Korean gradient lip. On the cheeks, dot across the apples and blend outwards with the tips of your fingers.

Blurred lips

Why colour within the lines when you can blur them instead? That was the question lip trends posed in 2025, and blurred lips delivered the answer. Think a softly diffused wash of colour that looks romantic, effortless and just a little bit undone—like you’ve just been kissed. This trend made room for hydration and softness. Start by moisturising your lips with a balm, then lightly tap concealer around the edges to soften your natural lip line. Apply your chosen lip colour—tints, stains and velvety mousses work especially well—to the centre of your lips and blend outward with your fingertip for that perfectly blurred finish.

Ghost Waves

As the undone aesthetic made its way into hair trends, it was only natural that ghost waves earned unanimous approval in 2025. Defined barrels were replaced with barely-there, S-shaped waves that feel relaxed and real. This is a trend that values ease over effort. To recreate it, prep towel-dried hair with a lightweight mousse and gently scrunch it in with your hands. If your hair needs a little extra help, loosely curl sections with a wide-barrel iron—just enough to add movement without making the waves obvious. Blowout or bedhead? That’s for others to guess.

Alpine Beauty

No ski holiday planned? You can still channel the fresh, wintry glow of alpine beauty. Inspired by the Scandi approach to minimalism, this look mirrors the clean, luminous flush you get after a day in the cold. Heavy finishes are swapped for sheer textures and soft definition. Start with a lightweight skin tint to even things out, then reach for silvery highlighters to reflect light subtly. Eyes look best in frosty, pearlescent shades, while the lips are kept hydrated with tinted balms for a natural, cold-weather glow.

baby doll blush

Blush trends show no signs of slowing down, and 2025 welcomed baby doll blush into the spotlight. Nostalgic and playful, this look takes inspiration from the rosy cheeks of classic dolls. The colour palette leans romantic—bubblegum pinks and soft rosy hues take centre stage. The real trick lies in placement. Instead of concentrating blush on the apples of your cheeks, sweep it in a soft ‘C’ shape just under the eyes. Blend well for a bright, youthful flush that feels fresh rather than overdone.

PIXI On-The-Glow Blush - Ruby (19 g)

Toasted makeup

Sun-kissed glam may be familiar territory, but toasted makeup brought a warmer, more nostalgic twist in 2025. Imagine the glow of sitting by a fireplace with a mug of hot cocoa—that’s the mood this trend captures. Warm terracottas, bronzes and cocoa tones define the look, making it especially flattering for melanin-rich skin. To recreate it, layer toasted hues across your makeup—bronzer on the cheeks, coppery tones on the eyes and a caramel-toned gloss on the lips for a cohesive, cosy finish.

Makeup Revolution Superdewy Liquid Bronzer - Dark To Deep (15ml)
Oulac Liquid Diamond Glow Color - SA02/Cream (5.8 g)

Plaid Nails

Florals for spring may not be groundbreaking, but plaid for fall certainly made things interesting. As fashion and nail art continue to overlap, plaid found its way onto our manicures in 2025. Earthy shades like deep burgundy, chocolate brown and sage green work beautifully for this look. After applying your base colour, use thin brushes to draw vertical and horizontal lines, creating a subtle grid pattern. For an elevated finish, add metallic accents or pearl studs to give your nails an Insta-worthy update.

Boho Bob

Free-spirited texture was the defining hair mood of 2025, and the boho bob captured it perfectly. If you were considering a chop, this style offered a relaxed alternative to overly structured cuts. The focus is on movement, texture and ease, with softly tousled ends replacing sharp lines. Texturising sprays and volumising mousses are your best friends here. Let your hair air-dry to preserve its natural wave pattern, then lightly enhance it with a medium-barrel curling wand—just enough to emphasise, not define, your natural kinks and curls.

Plaid Nails

Florals for spring may not be groundbreaking, but plaid for fall certainly made things interesting. As fashion and nail art continue to overlap, plaid found its way onto our manicures in 2025. Earthy shades like deep burgundy, chocolate brown and sage green work beautifully for this look. After applying your base colour, use thin brushes to draw vertical and horizontal lines, creating a subtle grid pattern. For an elevated finish, add metallic accents or pearl studs to give your nails an Insta-worthy update.

Boho Bob

Free-spirited texture was the defining hair mood of 2025, and the boho bob captured it perfectly. If you were considering a chop, this style offered a relaxed alternative to overly structured cuts. The focus is on movement, texture and ease, with softly tousled ends replacing sharp lines. Texturising sprays and volumising mousses are your best friends here. Let your hair air-dry to preserve its natural wave pattern, then lightly enhance it with a medium-barrel curling wand—just enough to emphasise, not define, your natural kinks and curls.
