Switch up your look with these 2021 makeup trends, which run the gamut from sheer foundation to electric blue liner.

<p><strong>Natural skin</strong></p>

<p>This year, natural skin is in. Instead of using full-coverage foundation, opt for more sheer formulas that let skin texture, freckles, and even <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/dark-under-eye-circles-tiktok-trend">under-eye circles</a> shine through.<br />

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Bright shadow</strong></p>

<p>While neutral shadows are always in, bright, intense shades in pink, green, and blue are an of-the-moment way to bring a bit of optimism to your makeup looks. Make a statement during your&nbsp;next Zoom call with a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/chanel-makeup-artist-nina-park-smokey-eye">swipe of shadow</a> in your favorite neon.<br />

&nbsp;</p>


<p><strong>Stained lips</strong></p>

<p>There&#39;s nothing worse than the sticky feeling of gloss under a mask, and lip stains are a practical and chic workaround. In a pinch, simply blot lipstick, reapply, and blot again.&nbsp;<em>Voil&agrave;.</em></p>

<p><strong>Graphic liner</strong></p>

<p>This 2021 makeup trend is all over Instagram. A favorite of professional makeup artists and Gen Z hobbyists alike, liquid liner in unique shapes and colors encourages&nbsp;you to connect with your inner artist and have fun with your look.<br />

<p><strong>Colorful mascara</strong></p>

<p>Remember <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/colorful-mascara-spring-2021-makeup-trend">novelty mascaras</a> from the &#39;90s? They&#39;re back in 2021. Wear the trend alone or paired with complimentary shadows.<br />

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Red-orange lips</strong></p>

<p>Intense red lipstick with warm orange undertones&nbsp;is a must-have product for 2021. This shade will warm your skin and is especially beautiful on deeper skin tones.<br />
&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Electric blue eyeliner</strong></p>

<p>At this point, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-create-perfect-cat-eye-liner-makeup-vincent-oquendo">cat eyes</a>&nbsp;are a classic. Why not switch it up with a bold swipe of electric blue? The shade is more flattering than you might think, and is also sure to turn heads.<br />

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Glossy eyes and lips</strong></p>

<p>Gloss is no longer just for lips. Give yourself an <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/cult-skincare-products-worth-it-biologique-recherche-augustinus-bader">all-over glow</a> by swiping a balmy highlight on lids, lips, and cheeks.&nbsp;</p>
