Holographic makeup has been everywhere lately and it's easy to see why. After all, what's not to love about multi-dimensional sparkle? With the help of some iridescence, it takes regular shimmer and basically maxes it out to the nth degree.

For true holographic beauty aficionados, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Moonchild Glow Palette, $40, is a must-have. It features not one, but six gorgeous shades all in various levels of holographic-ness. Fans of the look will also get a kick out of the Milani Stellar Lights Holographic Lip Gloss, $9, which gives you that coveted iridescent glaze at a wallet-friendly price. Last but not least, there's the Too Faced Diamond Highlighter Powder, $34, a gorgeous product that strikes the perfect balance between a subtle glow and some unicorn-worthy iridescence.

Coconut is by no means a trend that's confined to 2018 alone, but we were so impressed with all the coconut-themed products that were selected for this year's TotalBeauty Awards. There's just something about that refreshingly sweet smell that transports you right to a white sand beach — and that's a feeling that'll never go out of style.

Too Cool for School Coconut Milky Oil Shower Moisturizing Body Wash, $20, earned a permanent spot in our shower caddies with its skin-soothing emollient lather. We also enjoyed the scalp-saving properties of the innovative Briogeo Scalp Revival Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo, $42. As for the Skinfix Coconut Water Hydrating Mist, $10.50, they're absolutely ideal for keeping at your desk for refreshing midday spritzes.

After a few years on the scene, it's becoming clear that Korean beauty products are here to stay in a major way. More and more brands are making their way stateside and there's something for all skin concerns, price points and personalities. Now you can build a whole 10-step skin care routine built entirely on Korean skin care alone, easy as pie.

I Dew Care made major waves with its viral I Dew Care Disco Kitten Illuminating Diamond Peel-Off Mask, $23, a silvery-chrome mask that's as fun to look at as it is effective to use. We also found ourselves falling hard and fast for the AmorePacific Vintage Single Extract Essence, $145, a true, luxurious treat for your complexion. And for fans of Belif's cult-favorite moisturizer, there's now the Belif Moisturizing Eye Bomb, $48, a new eye cream envisioned along the same lines.

Liquid lipsticks were so omnipresent this year that you'd almost think regular twist-ups were completely outmoded. Luckily, that's not the case, but we tested so many groundbreaking liquid lipstick formulas that the trend can't go unnoticed.

Out of all the amazing formulas we tried, two rose to the top: First, there's the Marc Jacobs Beauty Le Marc Liquid Lip Crayon, $26, a liquid lipstick that actually comes in chubby crayon form (and boasts some of the most unique, wearable colors in town). Then there are the lovely Guerlain Intense Liquid Matte Lipsticks, $32: superlatively comfortable with all the pigmentation and wear time a person could possibly ask for.

Roses will always be in fashion but it's always nice to see the classic beauty staple get a bit of an upgrade. The scent popped up in unexpected places, whether it was in rosehip oil form or mixed with other alluring garden scents like jasmine.

Fragrance fans can't go wrong with the heady floral Gucci Bloom Eau de Parfum, $124, which is basically a summer night in a minimalist millennial pink bottle. The Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil, $72, adds lightweight hydration and brightens like you wouldn't believe, and Love Beauty and Planet Murumuru Butter & Rose Body Wash, $6.94, smells so, so luxurious, especially at its very affordable price point.
