Beauty is like fashion—it loves a good comeback. And the beauty trends of 2025 are proof that what once ruled our vanities can return, bolder and better. In fact, some of the most striking makeup, hair, and nail looks we've seen this year feel oddly familiar—because they are.
These are the same trends that once dominated in the ‘90s and early 2000s, but with a fresh, more modern twist. And honestly? We’re thrilled to see them back in the spotlight, and we think you will tooRetro Glam Makeup Revival
Retro glam is BACK in a big way. This iconic style has a timeless appeal, and it’s popping up everywhere in the 2025 beauty trends.
Here’s what to know about bringing this timeless style into today’s world:
Bold Brows and Liner
Thick, defined brows and sharp winged eyeliner are everywhere again. Inspired by ‘60s icons like Sophia Loren and Audrey Hepburn, this look is all about structure and precision. A strong brow frames the face, while a sleek cat-eye adds just the right amount of vintage flair. The key? A solid brow pencil, a smudge-proof black liner, and a little patience.
Red Lips and Matte Finishes
A bold red lip is a beauty staple that never really left—but now, it’s making a statement in a big way. Deep, rich reds paired with a matte finish create that perfect, old-Hollywood vibe. It’s a look that’s polished, powerful, and effortlessly chic.
How to Get the Look
Retro glam is easier to achieve than you might think—all you need are the right products and a good mirror. A precise brow pencil, high-pigment red lipstick, and a smooth liquid liner will do the trick. But the real must-have is a mirror that helps you perfect every detail.
Our Hollywood XL Tri-Tone LED Makeup Mirror makes it easy to create this look. With 12 built-in LED bulbs and three adjustable light settings, it gives you the perfect lighting every time.
The soft-touch sensor lets you switch between warm, cool, and natural lighting with a tap, while the wireless charging dock and Bluetooth speakers let you get ready while listening to your favorite playlist. Plus, its 360˚ tilt and travel-friendly design mean you can take flawless lighting anywhere.
If you love bold brows, red lips, and a sleek cat-eye, retro glam is your go-to look. And with modern beauty tools, it’s easier than ever to pull off.
Vintage Hairstyles Reimagined
Voluminous hair never goes out of style, and this year, we’re seeing some of the most glamorous vintage-inspired looks making a comeback. Here’s what’s trending:
Bouncy Blowouts
The ‘90s supermodel blowout is back, and it’s all about big volume, soft waves, and glossy shine. This look gives your hair that effortless bounce, like you just stepped off the runway.
To recreate it, you’ll need the right tools: a powerful blow dryer, a round brush, and some velcro rollers for that extra lift at the roots. With a little patience, you can achieve that perfect flick at the ends and all the movement you want.
Accessory Spotlight
No vintage-inspired hairstyle is complete without the right accessories. Retro-inspired headbands, barrettes, and scrunchies are popping up everywhere, adding a touch of playful nostalgia to any hairstyle.
Whether you’re pulling your hair back into a sleek ponytail or framing your face with delicate clips, these accessories bring just the right amount of vintage charm while keeping your style polished.
Vanity Must-Haves
Styling your hair is one thing—keeping your tools organized is another. That’s why our SlayStation® Natalie Column with Drawers is a game-changer. With spacious drawers that fit tall hairspray bottles, curling irons, and brushes, it’s perfect for staying organized.
Plus, the crystal lux drawer knobs and frosted glass top add a touch of elegance to your space, while the anti-tipping bracket keeps everything safe and secure. A well-organized styling station makes it easier to create the looks you love.
Statement Nails with a Nostalgic Twist
Yet another trend making a comeback is statement nails, but with a nostalgic twist. These aren't your grandma's nails; they're bold, playful, and a perfect way to express your personality.
Here’s what’s hot in the world of nail art:
French Tips Reinvented
The classic French manicure has been completely reimagined. It’s no longer just a nude base with white tips—it’s now a canvas for creativity. Think bold red tips, geometric designs, ombré fades, or even metallic accents. These updates take a timeless look and give it a fresh, modern edge. It’s all about turning the familiar into something uniquely yours.
At-Home Nail Care
With nail art becoming more intricate, good lighting is everything. Trying to perfect tiny details in a dim room is nearly impossible. That’s where our Hollywood Soleil Duo-Tone Makeup Mirror changes your nail game.
This 2-in-1 mirror includes a built-in UV gel curing lamp, saving you time during your routine. Tap the soft-touch sensor to switch between warm and cool lighting or adjust the brightness for a clear view. With nine LED bulbs and multiple curing timer options, it makes creating salon-quality nails at home easier than ever.

Fashion and beauty have always gone hand in hand, influencing and elevating one another. And monochromatic looks are taking center stage again, proving that coordinating your makeup and outfit can create a striking, cohesive statement.
Here’s how this trend is redefining style in 2025:
Color-Coordinated Makeup and Outfits
The idea of matching your makeup to your outfit is making a bold comeback. It’s no longer just about perfectly matching colors; it’s about creating harmony. A smoky eye that complements the tones of your dress or a subtle lip color that reflects your outfit’s palette—it’s a creative way to elevate your overall look while letting your personality shine.
Key Shades for 2025
We're also seeing a comeback of vintage-inspired hues, like soft pastels, rich jewel tones, and glamorous metallics. These shades add a touch of nostalgia while still feeling fresh and modern. They're a way to incorporate classic colors into your wardrobe and makeup routine.
