Beauty Trends to Lookout For in 2022
It’s nearly impossible to predict tomorrow, let alone the year ahead - I mean who could have predicted the whirlwind that has been the last two years?! While some of us might still be trying to process the year 2020, there is a lot to look forward to in the year ahead as it pertains to skin, beauty, and our favorite topic - self care. We all have our favorite ways we like to treat ourselves: our usual beauty treatments, maybe a glass of wine, splurging at the mall, but it’s always fun to add something new into the mix.
We did a little research and have gathered a few of the most anticipated skincare and beauty trends that you can expect to see in the new year.
Authentic Beauty
One of the largest beauty trends we can expect to see in 2022 is a more minimal and authentic all around look. From hair styles, to brows, makeup trends, etc.
Gone are the days of 80’s hair perms or heavy 90’s eye liner. More and more people are starting to accept and love their natural hair texture and skin type, and we are here for it! Authentic beauty is making huge strides, which is something we could not be more excited about. Some of our favorite ways to incorporate a more natural and authentic look:
Eyebrow lamination
Brow lamination is a semi-permanent alternative to microblading that gives you naturally fuller eyebrows. The three step process will delicately restructure your eyebrow hairs to give them a set, more uniform look for an extended period of time. Brow lamination will help your hairs stay “brushed up” for a true “I woke up like this” eyebrow look. Brow lamination typically lasts for about six weeks.
For on trend, natural and glowing skin, we encourage you to try our weightless, dry, tinted SPF 30 by Jane Iredale. The coverage is so light you’ll hardly be able to tell whether you have concealer on or not. Bonus** It provides protection from the sun which makes you glow that much more.
Effortless Shopping
Long gone are the days of aimlessly browsing the mall (unless it’s Target - that’s what we call self care). I don’t know about you, but we don’t have tons of time to spend hours driving around town to get our errands done - fighting traffic, finding a parking spot, hunting down products that have been out of stock, & then waiting in line to pay - no thanks!
Online ordering and in-store pickup are rapidly becoming the next big thing in beauty. At Gameela Skin, we know convenience is important! We offer online options to get your products shipped directly to your house or same day pickup if you’re in a time crunch. These options allow our customers to get the products they need while going about their daily schedule.
Shipping or in-store pickup are both available on our online shop!
Men’s Skincare
Beauty and skincare for men is on the RISE - so much so, it’s expected to generate $81.2 billion in global sales by the year 2024. According to research, the Covid lockdown has a lot to do with this boom in redefining masculinity. While the men were at home more often, they became more comfortable experimenting with self care products, and we’re not mad about it.
We’ve been advocating for self care for men from the very beginning. A few ways that men can pamper themselves at Gameela Skin:
Hair Removal For Men
Hair removal is a big one! Hair removal is crucial for both men and women. For men, we offer an assortment of waxing services as a painless and effective way to keep up with unwanted body hair. We can take care of nose hair, brows, back waxing, etc.!
Facials For Men
One of our most popular (and growing) services among men is facials! So many men often overlook the importance of taking care of their skin, especially when it comes to applying sunscreen. We offer 60-minute customized facials for men that include a deep cleanse, steam, rejuvenating serums, and more to help reverse sun damage and skin neglect.
We love that skincare and beauty trends are continuing to evolve for men & we hope to see more of you in our salon in 2022. For more info on skincare and beauty for men, click here!
Less Stress & More Self-Care
I think this might be our favorite trend of 2022. As someone who sees dozens of clients each week, I hear a lot about the stress we all carry on a day to day basis.
Stress has a huge effect on the body and skin - it can cause dehydration, premature aging, winkles, and more. Not to mention, stress can take a huge toll on us mentally. We should all be finding ways to manage our stress levels, which is why we’re so happy to hear about the products that will be hitting the market to help the body’s response to stress. Stress management is emerging and is expected to grow four to five times its current size over the course of the next few years, but 2022 is the year we should really see it start to heat up.
Some of our favorite ways to destress and find time for self care at Gameela Skin:
Scheduling a facial! Whether you’re battling a breakout caused by the stress of day to day life or you just need an hour break from reality, a 60-minute facial might be just the right ticket for a little reset. Come in as you are, enjoy a quiet and weightless treatment, and leave feeling refreshed and ready for what’s to come. You can’t pour from an empty cup, so remember to schedule time for YOU.
