Halo Lip Trend: Indian Beauty Hack
A makeup artist named Katie Jane Hughes said that in 2026, a new lip makeup trend called 'halo lips' will be popular.
This trend makes lips look soft and full by blurring the edges.
An Indian fashion expert, Rinkoo Shroff, said that Indians have been doing this for a long time without calling it a trend.
She shared a simple hack using just a cheek or lip tint to achieve the same look.
The trick is to apply the tint to the fuller parts of the lips and blend it outwards to create a soft, gradient effect.
Katie Jane Hughes predicted the 'halo lip' trend for 2026, featuring soft, pillowy, blurry lips.
The trend involves blurring the edges of lip liner and lipstick for a diffused, effortless look.
Rinkoo Shroff explained that the technique creates dimension around the mouth without sharp contours.
Indians have been using a similar technique for years, known as the 'spread look'.
A simple desi hack involves using a single cheek or lip tint to achieve the halo lip effect.
