Blush flush was a standout trend at Copenhagen Fashion Week, where minimal skin took center stage. Instead of bold and bright shades, the focus was on more subtle and pared-back blush hues. Makeup artist Christine Lucignano emphasized the importance of changing tones to tawny and brown-based mauves for a natural and understated look. This trend was evident at shows like Baum Und Pferdgarten and Gestuz, where different variations of the blush flush were showcased.
At Baum Und Pferdgarten, the theme was Office Olympics, blending sporty styles with sequins and relaxed separates. The makeup look featured a glowy, post-workout flush, giving off a fresh and healthy appearance. On the other hand, Gestuz embraced cool-girl, rock’n’roll 70s vibes with a boyfriend blush trend, placing blush lower on the cheek for a subtle contour finish.
When it comes to brows, bold and fluffy is back in style. The Remain show highlighted brushed-up brows, pinched cheeks, and soft, contoured skin, providing a three-dimensional and natural look. Lucignano recommended using a combination of brow powder and a liquid brow pen to achieve this modern and bold brow trend.
Hairstyles at Copenhagen Fashion Week also followed the clean and minimalistic makeup looks. Plaits and wet hair were popular choices, with designers like Herskind and Munthe showcasing modern twists on classic hairstyles. Plaits were styled in a twisted manner or infused with fabric and gel for a fresh and contemporary vibe. According to Lucignano, unraveling plaits can create perfect two or three-day waves for a versatile and effortless look.
Sleek, wet-look hair made a statement at shows like (Di)Vison and Forza Collective, adding a cool-girl dimension to the overall aesthetic. Whether pulled back and tucked into backless designs or framing the face in chunky strands, wet hair was a key hairstyle trend. To achieve this look at home, it’s important to use the right products like Color WOW Pop&Lock or Alberto Balsam Wet Look Styling Gel and consider hair texture for the best results.
Overall, Copenhagen Fashion Week showcased a range of beauty trends that embraced minimalism, subtlety, and modern twists on classic styles. From the blush flush to bold brows and chic plaits, the beauty looks at the fashion shows offered inspiration for creating effortless and stylish makeup and hairstyles.
