2024’s Makeup Trends and Gemstone Jewelry Combos to Try Now
1. Pearls With Bright, Bold Lips
It’s time to pack away your nude lipsticks because this year, we’re letting our lips do all the talking in statement red!
TBH, red lipstick is to beauty what the LBD is to fashion; a classic choice with an enduring appeal. But boy, red is having a major moment in both beauty and fashion right now. Rihanna’s head-to-toe monochrome ‘fit at the Super Bowl LVII was red hot and unforgettable. Even Lady Gaga went full-on 80s with her red lip makeup look at the 2024 Oscars.
So, if you’re feeling like sporting a classic-on-classic look, we suggest pairing your red pout with smudged wing eyeliner and pearl jewelry. Switch the pearl strand with modern-style pearl earrings if you want to chic up your attire.
2. Black Onyx With Grunge Glam
Call it the return of the 90s or the Wednesday Adams effect, but grunge glam is where it’s at this year. However, the best part is you don’t need to be a makeup pro to pull it off.
As opposed to the cat eye that requires patience and perfection, the beauty of this 90s look is that it’s meant to look messy and flawed, kinda like you lived in it. You can even play around with this look to put your spin on it. For example, you can don sultry smokey eyes, fierce brows and a statement lip shade to go full-on grunge or take it down a notch with muted smokey eyes and lips if you prefer a soft-goth look.
Ready to enter your goth glam era? Then don’t forget to shop for matching black onyx jewelry like this bracelet whose edgy color and design give that element of mystery to your looks. Wear it standalone or add it to your stack – the choice is yours!
3. Citrines For That Sunkissed Glow
We’re talking about that dewy sun-kissed glow… the kind you have when you’ve just returned home from the beach on a balmy summer morning. Think: natural, sun-flushed, lit-from-within skin. Wouldn’t that be swell?
Of course, the key to this glow lies in investing in a solid skincare regime (there’s no underestimating the importance of that), but you can also mimic the effects of a lazy beach day with just a handful of products like a radiance-boosting serum, blush, bronzer and lip tint.
While the makeup products will help you achieve that envious sun-kissed skin, golden-yellow citrine jewelry will add even more to your glow.
We say, these dangle citrine earrings are perfect for the upcoming days of summer and will subtly frame your face to make your makeup really pop. However, if you’re craving that all-out beaming glamor, we recommend you also throw in a citrine pendant necklace or a ring.
4. Peachy Morganites With Soft Girl Makeup
Love all things pink? Then the soft girl makeup trend of 2024 was made for you, pal! It’s an aesthetic that is defined by a hyper-feminine girly girl look created by a pastel color palette. And with Barbiecore trending, pink is set to be the ‘it’ color of 2024. So, you can’t go wrong by hopping on this trend!
All you need to nail this aesthetic is glowing skin, peachy-pink blush (the more, the better), fluffy lashes and lots of lip gloss. Finish the look with peachy morganite jewelry, which btw is all about loving and accepting yourself the way you are, just like the soft girl. Now, isn’t that perfect? Go on, get your hands on these pink morganite earrings. They’re incredibly versatile and will blend in seamlessly with the sweet, feminine aesthetic you’re going for.
5. Rubies Plus Bold, Graphic Eyeliner
Graphic eyes will be everywhere in 2024. And celebrities from the likes of Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens to Lily Collins and Yara Shahidi are proof.
Graphic eyes are a great way to instantly elevate your look, even if you’re wearing a plain tee and jeans outfit. It’s also a great option for those who love the classic cat eye but want to spice things up or put a spin on it. The result? More drama and fun!
You can easily create graphic lines around the eyes using liquid eyeliner or eyeshadow. Simply add graphic details like abstract shapes or lines with your black (or colored) eyeliner and voila, you’re done… well, almost! Don’t forget to complement this gorgeous, bold look with an equally bold gem – the ruby. We think it couldn’t get hotter than this stunning ruby cocktail ring and your winged eyes.
6. Opals And Glazed Donut Everything
Looks like donuts aren’t going to be the only thing that’ll be glazed this year. We’ll be extending the courtesy to our skin and nails too!
Mrs. Hailey Bieber sparked this trend with her glazed donut nails and is now practically the poster girl for this look. More recently, the 2024 makeup trend got our attention when Millie Bobby Brown posted her engagement picture on Instagram. She was donning smackin’ glazed donut nails, and TBH, her mani caught more attention than her engagement ring.
To break it down for you, this look is about creating perfectly smooth, fresh and hyper-glowy skin (kinda like icing). It’s so iridescent that it appears downright angelic!
So, how do you get it? With a little help from hydrating serums, moisturizers, dewy facial essences and crème highlighters from your vanity kit. For the bling, add our iridescent opal rings, pendants and bracelets to your look. Their hypnotic play-of-colors and otherworldly glow will take things several notches higher by giving you that high-shine look.
7. Brightly-Colored Gemstones With Y2K Glam
Tis the era of color!
Y2K fever is stronger than ever. We’ve already seen beauty queens like Dua Lippa, Paris Hilton and Kendall Jenner take a run at this trend, and we are jumping on this bandwagon too!
Defined by the color and shimmer of the 90s, the trend is all about getting creative and having fun with your makeup. Think: signature brown lips, lip gloss and frosty-hued eyeshadows.
To get in on the trend, we recommend reaching out for bright-yet-playful hues like lilac, baby blue, pale yellows, lime green, etc. and taking them up to your crease for that pop of color. Top off your look by slipping on brightly-colored gemstone sparklers like pink sapphire, aquamarine or amethyst jewelry.
Start with these amethyst hoops in a lovely purple hue and bold design. They’ll ensure you live out your Y2K fantasy to the fullest, we promise!
