We are typically attracted to product packaging as consumers. Make-up packaging is no different, the more creative or aesthetically pleasing the packaging the more likely we are to buy the product. Glossier have stripped back packaging to clean and classic colours, simplistic text and symbols. The packaging itself not particularly aiming itself towards female or male custom, but appealing to all gender/ non-gender consumers.

 

The Female & Male contour

The contour beauty trend started many years ago by clever make-up artists playing on the highlight and shadowing of the contours of our faces. Popularised by the likes of the Kardashians, we see expert contouring achieved by both men and women.  For instance Patrick Starr, a Filipino male make up artist and a self-confessed lover of make-up. He recently collaborated with Kim Kardashian herself for a contouring make-up tutorial on his you tube channel, advertising her new beauty line.
