The world of beauty has undergone a dramatic transformation in the past decade. Gone are the days when celebrity beauty secrets were shrouded in mystery, only unveiled on the red carpet. We’ve entered an era of social media transparency, where professional artists share their techniques, content creators reveal their beauty hacks, and even A-listers openly showcase their full-face routines. This openness has been incredibly beneficial, providing a platform for self-expression and a space for creative exploration.
Instagram and TikTok have become canvases for artistic makeup looks and bold nail art, allowing individuals to showcase their unique styles.
