Finding the right makeup tricks that actually work for the trends out there can be hard to follow though. Ladies, I’ve got the low-down on the top makeup tricks for 2012 and I’m going to share them with you! Check them out what they are!
1. Radiant Skin
The first makeup trick that we are going to talk about is radiant skin. There are tons of products out there that will not only make sure that your skin is beautiful and glowing, but that will also make your skin appear younger too! Choose one tone lighter than your skin color. Because 30 minutes after you put on your foundation, it’ll get dimmer and even darker than your original skin color.

2. Statement Look
One thing that you will notice in 2012 when it comes to makeup tricks is all kinds of statement looks. Now, you’ve probably seen things like statement jewelry or statement outfits, but statement makeup? What it basically means is that you focus in on one part of your face. Let’s say you want to focus on your lips – you’d wear some really bold lipstick. Or your eyes, you’d wear some really dramatic eye makeup.

3. Retro Makeup
When I talk about retro as being one of the must-know makeup tricks for 2012, I don’t mean that you have to go back to the 80′s. I mean go back a few years, bring the classics back. Get edgy yet still classy. Think Dita Van Teese, poster pin-up doll!

4. Doll Makeup
The key to this makeup trend is shiny pouts and ultra-long eyelashes.

5. Cat Eyes
Cat eyeliner was huge in 2011 and it’s another makeup trick that’s going to be huge in 2012 as well. Just add in a little upturned swoop to the top layer of your eyelid and I promise, you’ll get a ton of compliments! I love this trend!

6. Wine Stained Lips
One of the biggest trends in makeup for 2012 that you’ll be seeing a lot of is deeper wine colors on lips. Things like burgundy and deep reds are going to be huge this year! So ladies, get out your dark wine colors and start staining those lips!
I personally highly recommended this Chanel’s Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lipstick.
A modern, classic creme lip colour. Lightweight and glides easily onto lips. Hydrates to create soften, condition and soothe lips. It boosts the ability of lips to maintain moisture.

7. Embellishment
Just because you have makeup on, sometimes that isn’t enough! This year, you’ll see not only some bright colors, but you’ll also see a lot of embellishments. Embellishments could be anything from sequins all the way to tiny little pearls being added on.

8. Ruffled Brows
Ruffled brows are another trend that you’ll see a lot of. For this trends, what I’ve found that works is a MAC Brow Set. Trust me ladies, get it and you’ll be able to ruffle your brows like a pro!
9. Bronzer
Now, this look actually goes a little deeper than the simple sun makeup that you typically get in the summer. This look is all about enhancing the sculpting of your face with bronzing powders. You actually don’t even have to limit this makeup trick to your face, you can go all down your neck and even your cleavage!

10. Violet Eyeliner
Finally, the last trick that we are going to talk about is violet eyeliner instead of using black eyeliner. Violet eyeliner is so much different than black. Black is dramatic and serious, violet can actually enhance any color and is unique!
