Appropriately titled 'Glitter Your Freckles,' this beauty story features the gorgeous work of makeup artist Magdalena Klonecka who uses shimmering products into works of wearable art. Experimenting with glitter cosmetics in unexpected ways, Klonecka uses shimmering colors to accentuate model Kamila's eyes, cheekbones and forehead while keeping the rest of her makeup neutral and dewy. Spotlighting emerald green and gold metallics, this editorial celebrates the recent return of [shimmering cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimchi-chic-beauty) -- usually more synonymous with childhood and teen years than adulthood. This experimental photo series also embraces [artistic makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barry-m-beauty) rather than more traditional looks while showcasing model Kamila's striking features at the same time. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 38% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Shimmering Cosmetics:** There is an opportunity for makeup companies to explore the resurgence of shimmering cosmetics, applying them in unique ways to appeal to adult customers. - **Artistic Makeup:** Makeup artists can explore artistic makeup designs and applications, moving away from traditional looks and encouraging creativity in this field. - **Glitter Accentuation:** There is an opening for makeup artists to experiment with using glitter cosmetics to accentuate specific facial features in a subtler, more artistic way. ### Who This Affects Most - **Beauty:** The beauty industry can explore the application of shimmering cosmetics in ways that appeal to adult customers while also encouraging creativity and artistic expression. - **Fashion:** Fashion companies can incorporate the use of unique, artistic makeup designs in their editorial photo shoots and runways to create an unforgettable aesthetic. - **Photography:** Photographers can embrace the use of artistic makeup designs and shimmering cosmetics in their shoots to reflect creativity and add a unique element to their work. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Glittery Powder Sprays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starcrossed-dreams.md) - [Glitter Setting Sprays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glitter-setting-spray.md) - [Blurred Cosmetic Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cosmetics-and-ella-gross.md) - [Luminous Gloss-Inspired Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miami-art-week.md) - [Glitter-Colored Contact Lenses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fairy-1-day.md) - [Sparkly Glittering Drink Enhancers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brew-glitter.md) - [High-Impact Eye Crayons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparklestik-eye-crayon.md) - [Glittery Gut Health Supplements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-glitter.md) - [Bedazzled High-End Makeup Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-2024-makeup.md)
