Here's the Beauty Trend Everyone Was Talking About on Facebook this Year

It's been years since one of Facebook's sole purposes was to "poke" your college classmates. Considering that everyone from your childhood nextdoor neighbor, grandma, and quirky aunt who's blacklisted from family events are on your friends list, it's easy to forget that at one time you needed a valid college email address just to sign up for the social media platform.


But in-between the photo albums of your high school chem partner's firstborn child and invitations from your cousin to play FarmVille, conversations about current beauty trends are also happening. Just like the unfiltered photos that your fave celebs like Chrissy Teigen and Ashley Benson are sharing of heir stretch marks, cellulite, and acne treatments on Instagram, the discussion is taking place on Facebook, too.

aAccording to 2017's Annual Topics & Trends Report by the social media site's research arm Facebook IQ, the topic of beauty transparency is on the rise. Along with your favorite beauty brands and celebs openly showing blemishes, stretchmarks, and foregoing retouching in their ad campaigns and personal social media posts, people are more open to sharing and discussing the treatments they do in the name of beauty even if they're considered taboo.

So, what specifically are Facebook users talking about? The report found that since January 2016 the conversation around cryolipolysis, a cooling treatment that reduces body fat grew 19.4x, while hair removal was talked about 12x more, and permanent makeup increased 28.9x. The users speaking up the most on these topics were in the 35-54 age demographic, and the majority identified as women. 

The data gives an indication of what topics in the beauty realm that you can expect to see more of on your timeline in 2018. But, the stats also reflect the shift that the beauty industry has seen in the past year. People are becoming more open to the diversity in everyone's own personal experience with beauty and self-care.


Embracing your individuality should never be considered a trend, but we hope the conversation will only continue to get louder throughout 2018. 

In My Bag...

I work with beauty brands and have received my fair share of lipsticks, mascaras, blushes, etc. Seriously, I've lost track of how many different shades of lipstick I have alone. I've never been so blessed! While it's fun and exciting, 9 times out of 10, I'll use a product for a week and go back to my beloved items. When you know a product works for you, you just KNOW. (Yep, I'm comparing beauty products to love. Accept that it's happening.) Here are some of the items in my surprisingly minimalist day-to-day makeup bag.
Glossier Priming Moisturizer My love affair with Glossier started when they sent me a box of product along with the cutest stickers I'd ever seen and a pink bubble wrap cosmetic bag. I MEAN. Does it get any better than that? The answer is no, in case you were wondering. This moisturizer is my favorite for a few reasons. 1. It's unscented. A major plus with face products. 2. It's lightweight. With summer right around the corner, I can already feel my face getting dry. The problem with dry skin (besides the obvious) is most face moisturizers I've used are crazy thick. But not this one, it's light and airy, you can barely feel it. 3. This isn't proven for everyone, but one day I put it on and my boyfriend asked what I had changed about my face. I was clearly puzzled and replied "Um, I just put face lotion on?" He said it cleared me up and I looked extra radiant. Okay, I added the radiant part in. But if a boyfriend notices a makeup change, that's almost like magic, friends!//Glossier.com for $22
CoverGirl Clump Crusher Mascara by LashBlast in Very Black A few months ago Maybelline decided to break my heart into 17 million pieces by discontinuing the best mascara ever created. (RIP Volum Express One-by-One) I was seriously devastated, I didn't know where to turn. How could I live without a little mascara love for my eyelashes?! It was a dark time. That is, until I found CoverGirl's Clump Crusher Mascara. It had the same consistency as Maybelline and wasn't clumpy - hence the name. It went on smooth, elongated my lashes and didn't smudge after use of my rosewater spray. That's all I wanted in a new mascara! Stability. And now I've found it. I could not be happier. But I swear, if they ever take this away, I don't know what I'll do.//Target or CoverGirl.com for $5.60
CHANEL Crayon Sourcils #30 I know this may sound silly, but this was one of my first major beauty purchases. I remember it vividly. I received a Bloomingdale's gift card (Okay, so I didn't actually purchase it myself, but whatever.) and decided to treat myself to some Chanel love. Instead of a nail polish or lipstick, I went crazy and bought an eyebrow pencil. I was feeling chic and sophisticated! Oh, it changed my life. My life and my eyebrows' lives. I don't know what that means exactly, but I haven't been the same. It is the smoothest pencil I've ever tried. I'm currently trying out a new pencil and not pleased. The shade is perfect and the brush is just right! I've never really been a brand person, but I do truly believe Chanel makes the world a better place.//Chanel.com for $29
ESOS Smooth Sphere Lip Balm in Sweet Mint I used to see girls with these ESOS lip balms everywhere. Seriously, they traveled in packs. I was always intrigued by how they applied it and how it all fit into the little ball. This all changed when Coachella time came around. I needed a chapstick that wouldn't melt in the hot desert sun. I also wanted something that smelled good. That's where ESOS came in. Not only is the container stinkin' cute, but it smells (and tastes, that's important too) SO good. It moisturizes the perfect amount and doesn't feel heavy or waxy. The sweet mint also leaves the right amount of a tingly mint feeling. But my favorite part is that you can still apply lipstick on over the balm. That's extremely important on my list of lip balm needs. I think I'm in love!//Target or ESOS.com for $3.29

That's all for now. I have a lot more, but these should tide you over for now.

CR Fashion Book Issue 6

This is my favorite thing on the Internet/newsstands this week. The cover of CR Fashion Book's Issue 6 is the best thing ever. Model, Kitty Hayes, graces the cover and (while the hair in her choker bugs me tremendously) I can't help but gush over her braces. Her big smile kills me, I absolutely love it. I adore it. I wish this existed back when I had braces in elementary/middle school. (Forever grateful my Mom had me get it over with before high school. I had enough problems to deal with. Ha.)

V Magazine Spring 2015

Let me start this off by saying that I love Selena Gomez like, well, like a love song, you might say. (I'm not sorry for that because A. That's a horribly great song. B. That was funny. To me, at least.) But her new V Magazine cover makes me somewhat uncomfortable. Maybe it's her charming and adorable baby face and the fact that it, and the body connected to it, want nothing more than to be seen as an adult. Or maybe it's because I feel like she's my friend or sister and I feel like I accidentally walked in on her at a bad time. Or maybe it's just all those things. She's adorable and I love her, but I'm so sick of topless shots just because. Save that for the one that loves you like a love song back, Selena. This time, that person's not me.

Weekend was all about spoiling myself and that's how I ended up buying a new white shirt from Mango and iconic Guerlain bronzing powder. Guilty as charged!
And on Monday, things just got even better when I received Givenchy Dahlia Divin perfume which was launched this September.  Sweet top notes like fruit, flower and sandalwood are among my favorites, so this can easily become my most liked scent for autumn! Thank you Givenchy!

Guilty as charged!
Photos arrived on Wednesday, but i had so many things to do, so i took a short, three days offline vacation!
But i`m ready on Friday for a new post! ;)
Now, you have a chance to see the "making of" photos, and how much fun we had! I also added the original photos, and i tagged all the clothes for those who didn`t get their copy, or live abroad, but still wanted to know what we were wearing on that day.
Let`s talk about my outfit now: it was an instant love, it could be called love at the first sight. I found the whole combination at Mango store in less than five minutes. Something between harem and regular pants in print, electric blue loose shirt, and gorgeous coral linen blazer as a perfect summer piece for a chilly nights, windy days or for a strict company dress code as a smart twist to get away from a boring rules and black&blue clothes (some women still needs to cover their hands during the summer). Cherry on top was definitely dark blue hat and my favorite Michael Kors watch. At the beginning we started with a braid on my head (i love how it looks like ), but it didn`t match to the outfit so we decided to ruin it, and make a messy hair look! ;) I`m really glad that you like it, and i wanna thank you for your lovely comments that you left! Hoping we will be able to repeat something similar in the near future and try to be even more creative.

These four ladies were stars for a one day, and it couldn`t be possible without all the people behind this project, so huge thanks to Vanja, Andreja, Srdjan and Ana! ;)
