For the longest time, most of us tended to play it pretty safe when it came to beauty. Neutral nails, pink lips, maybe a colorful eyeshadow or pixie cut now and then if we were feeling wacky.
But over the past few seasons, makeup and hair trends have been going bolder. Maybe it's the Lady Gaga/Nicki Minaj effect, but now we've got neon nail art, tangerine lipstick, and sky blue chalk in our hair -- and it's actually looking way better than we may have once thought. And 2013 looks like it's bringing even more outrageous-but-still-wearable trends our way.
Even if you haven't gotten more daring with your look lately, the new trends for 2013 are worth trying. Yes, they're bold -- but they're also totally flattering and easy to pull off for everyone. In fact, we're willing to bet some of these hair and makeup trends will replace your classic cat eye or beachy waves and become your new signature look.

I want to see more of the lavender lips...and I am SO over the bangs fad. I think that if your name is not Zoey Deschanel, stay FAR away from straight cut bangs, because she is pretty much the only human being alive who can pull them off properly.
Fun, fresh list! I already have red hair, but I have been dying to play with the color a little. Lighter shades don't work with my coloring, but I may try some highlights or go with a darker auburn shade (yes, for spring--who cares?).

Not really interested in many of these styles. Though, I liked the red hair. And I wish I could get a more contoured look.

Not so much on any of the looks described here, except flawless skin. Too bad there were no product suggestions.

I'm inspired to work on the flawless, contoured skin. And I'm tempted to try lavender lipstick...

I'm gonna try lavender lips!

The lavender lips is almost as bad as the orange ones. I am really into the bold eyeshadows and think contouring is a must, not really a trend.

Not fond of lavender lips but I love red hair. The flawless skin tips this year have helped in making me appear younger.
