MOJEH takes a look at the top five beauty trends we loved in 2015 and will be adhering to this year.

Gigi Hadid is a fan of ‘strobing’
Strobing
The antithesis of contouring and a celeb favourite, strobing is definitely here to stay. This game changing beauty technique makes your complexion look radiant and healthy while giving you an ethereal finish without suffocating your skin by layers of makeup. The trick to flawless selfies and red carpet perfection is to brush up a dab of highlighter on the peaks of your face to brighten your features.
Chiara Ferragni neatly wraps up a ‘hun’
Huns
The ultimate bad hair day solution, the half bun or the ‘hun’ has ruled Instagram and off-duty model looks. Everyone, from Sienna Miller to Poppy Delevingne and Ashley Olsen, have rocked the updated bun, and it has also been favourite amongst the opposite gender relentlessly sporting the ‘man bun’ all year long
Rooney Mara embracing the ‘Pun’
Puns
A low maintenance ponytail/bun fusion has been a hit at fashion weeks with fans like Jonathan Saunders and Diane von Frustenberg adapting variations of the new updo on autumn/winter 15 catwalks. Pinterest and Tumblr are full of references and tutorials to achieve the perfectly imperfect ‘pun’, and we’re looking forward to dressing up the upgraded bun with floral/metallic accessories in the coming summer.
Rosie Huntington Whiteley championing the ultimate ‘lob
Lobs
Long bobs have been around for a while, as a choice of haircut for sassy women of the past like Coco Chanel and Elizabeth Taylor proving to be a timeless winner. Supermodels Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Karlie Kloss and many more fashionistas have redefined the classic lob, playing with lengths and colours and we’re looking forward to more variations in 2016.
Rita Ora working the ‘coffin nails’
Coffin Nails
Over four million nail inspirations for the long eerie trend have been ‘pinned’ this year and it seems the desire for oblong nails isn’t going away any time soon. Taking inspiration from Morticia Adam’s signature mani shape, the acrylic extensions have been spotted on fans like Rihanna, Rita Ora and many more celebs, turning the slightly impractical manicure into a season long go-to style.
