A Month in Beauty: September 2022

Welcome back to another beauty roundup! Every month we round up our favourite ads, campaigns, trends, and creators from the social media beauty industry. 

So, who’s been busy in the beauty world this month?  

Trend spotlight

Fall favourites

As we head into autumn, BeautyTok has begun sharing the makeup looks they’ll be wearing this season. Looks lean into the indie sleaze aesthetic, and further away from the “Clean Girl” look. Users have been sharing their top products to achieve their autumn/winter looks.

Spooky season 

With Halloween just around the corner, BeautyTok has already begun creating spooky (and not-so-spooky) Halloween looks. Users typically create their looks to trending sounds, and use creative transitions to make the content engaging.
