Trends 2021: what's new in makeup?

Tendances 2021 : quoi de neuf côté maquillage ?

After a 2020 marked by a global health crisis, the entire cosmetics industry has been turned upside down, including the makeup segment. To help industry professionals better understand consumers’ new color and texture expectations, the virtual trial application YouCam Makeup collected and analyzed data from nine key countries.

To conduct the study, YouCam Makeup sifted through color and texture data between January and June 2021. The app focused on nine territories (US, UK, Brazil, Spain, Germany, France, Japan, China and Mexico).

The colors
The survey reveals that the most sought-after colors in 2021 are:
• Cranberry Pink
• Terracota Red
• Pink Salmon
• Wild Strawberry
• Red Ribbon
