We have a lot of time on our hands. Even as we’re keeping somewhat busy with work, school, etc. So now’s the time to experiment with all those runway beauty looks we were too afraid to try before. From blurred lips that used to seem pretty intimidating to negative space liner to 80s favorite crimped locks, there’s no shortage of things to try. And don’t worry, we’re fairly sure you already have all the things you need to create them. Bonus: You’ll finally get to use all those leftover shades in your eyeshadow palettes. We definitely encourage you to combine some of these unsung runway beauty looks. The aforementioned crimped strands look great with a little white liner. While a ribbon-accented ‘do calls for some strategic blush. If wet-look locks are on your list of musts, go ahead and add in some subtly smudged black liner for just-got-out-of-the-pool vibes. Ready for more inspo? Scroll through the slideshow above for the best runway beauty looks to add to your repertoire.

Just braid your hair from top to bottom, then use a flatiron on said braid to create those coveted crimps. (Feel free to add in the white negative space liner to finish off the look.)
