... Read moreThe resurgence of glam makeup styles from 2016 has been something I've noticed getting more buzz this year, and honestly, it’s exciting to see those bold, dazzling looks coming back into the spotlight. Back in 2016, makeup was all about vibrant eyeshadows, glitter, and high-impact contouring—something that made us feel confident and expressive. Now, with 2026 being hailed as the new 2016, it seems like a fantastic opportunity to bring some of that energy back into our beauty routines. Personally, I’ve started experimenting again with brighter eye makeup and glossy lips, something I hadn’t felt drawn to in years. Incorporating glitter and strong eyeliner has been a fun way of reconnecting with makeup playfulness. Also, the hashtag #flutterhabit really resonates—fluttery lashes have never gone out of style. Whether it’s with false lashes or the right mascara, those fluttery eyes add instant glam. What I find impressive about this throwback trend is how it can be adapted with modern twists. For example, blending the bold 2016 colors with today's focus on skincare and natural finishes creates a balanced look that’s both nostalgic and fresh. If you want to try this trend, starting with a subtle shimmer on the lids and layering on individual lashes can be a great first step. Embracing the #2016throwback spirit doesn’t just revive old trends; it also invites a sense of creativity and fun in makeup. It reminds us that makeup is an art form, always evolving but equally respectful of past influences. For anyone curious about jumping in, my advice is to start simple, have fun with textures like satin and glitter, and don’t be afraid to express yourself boldly—after all, that’s what glam is all about!

Summer Waxing Tip You Haven’t Heard
The secret to a smooth wax isn’t just in the technique—it’s in the temperature. Your wax should look like thick cake batter and cling to the stick for at least 5 seconds before dripping. That’s your sweet spot. Too hot and it’ll be runny (and risky). Too cool and it won’t grip the hair right.
