Sensory experience is where it's at when it comes to nail trends for 2023. Metallic, shimmery colors prevail in creating optical illusions (currently velvet fabric and new takes on French manicure), evoking the memory of a feel, while various ways of embellishing with textural decorations invite to be touched.

This year saw us embrace the 90's trend which we've welcomed, mainly because it was toned down compared to the original — lips framed with a, visibly enough, darker (not black) liner than the gloss or the lipstick. In 2023 we'll be wearing lip liners matched with a gloss in a shade that is slightly lighter or completely different to the shade of the liner (think in the direction of pink and red, orange and pink, brown and coral, etc).

Bob is staying, too. Chop-chop! Shorter, curated-messy and layered cuts will be everywhere. We might see the shaggy mullet taking more regular flights into 2023. The chill, spiky styles will walk alongside sculptural afro styles and wavy bangs, bringing the dose of '70's spirit into '020's street style.

Way more skin than is on the face and it isn't as needy as our faces, yet body tends to be neglected more when it comes to caring for it. I mean...it's the last thing on this list. Coincidentally. Well, skincare products made for the body are already on the rise, and in 2023 we'll see more types of them popping up, and more attention on actives and their increased use in body product formulations.
