New Love Times predicts the hottest beauty trends that will shake 2016. Even if you are a classicist, think the Boudreaux lip colours and the French-tipped nails, the rebel alter in you will definitely have to take charge since bling is the in-thing!
Here, we are breaking down the beauty trends that you got to give a whirl!
#HottestNailTrend
Shattered glass Manis
We have already seen the Minx stickers and the bubble nails. The negative space Manis has also done the rounds. So what are the nail artists coming up with this year? The answer unquestionably is shattered glass Manis. It’s 3-D and takes after reflective mirrors, gemstones and crumpled shards of glass. Your cue for this one would be glass windows and splintered diamonds. Think Beyoncé’s Tom Ford VMAs bodysuit in a nail form!
The glass manicure is created with cellophane and has been inspired by a sea snail with an iridescent lining inside the shell!
To get your hands on it, go for the two glass-nail sticker templates by Park. After you apply the base coat and the polish, gently set the stickers and follow up with a top lacquer coat.

Glitter lips
All that glitters is not gold, but better! 😉
This year glitter roots that call for disco dust along the hairline and glitter lips, which add shimmer to the pout, will be driving everyone bananas! Lottie Tomlinson is to be blamed for the root bit!
And I shouldn’t even get started about the glitter eye shadow, which enjoyed its space on the Runway last year and will maintain its reign on the fashion charts this year too. But the lips… they are surely the showstoppers!
For the look, grab the spangled lipstick and sweep away the excesses. The best bets are Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick and of course, the KA’OIR Glitz stick.

#HottestHairColourTrends
1. Sunset hair
Spin some heads this year with the hottest trends going viral on Instagram! The sunset hair, pumpkin spice and rose gold hair are for the subtlety hogs while glitter roots, rainbow roots, galaxy hair and gold leaf hair will cheer the quirks up! Don’t worry, we will fill you up on each.
Blend the enthralling hues of dusk for these magnificent looks. Tip-offs- Rubicund, auburn, lavender, crimson and azure.
You are allowed to experiment with as up to five vivid shades or pick only 2 tones for an Ombre effect.
For a more elusive flair, have a taste of brunette instead.
The best chunk of the deal? Muses lie everywhere, from screensavers to actual sunsets!
2. Rose gold hair
The craze, I believe, was initiated by the rose gold bracelets that everybody owned once upon a time. This trend seems to have spread like wild fire, and is spilling over everyone’s Insta page!
Clue: Blend golden straw-color with rich hues of cherry and pink. You can also plump for a rose gold or may be highlights that up the edge!
The warm hues like pumpkin spice and bronde are what people are hearting!
A gold leaf decal is all that you ever wanted for your R & R parties!
3. Galaxy hair
Outer space on my locks! Interstellar got the better of us, I guess!
Strip your hair of its natural color with bleach. Now blend in the multi-tonal hair colors flowing from indigo to green to even red. Silver tones are also endorsed. However, make sure they are more pigmented and are less pastel!
The process is time-consuming, taking about four to five hours! The keep will also be arduous! Touch-ups are mandatory so that the colors don’t dwindle. Dissuaded? C’mon! ET is totally worth all that and more!
