Beauty trends come and go almost as fast as Carbone reservations on Resy.
The fleeting nature of these trends makes it difficult to know what’s hot and what’s not.
Lucky for you, we’ve connected with the queen of all things beauty, Nikita Dragun, who has a pulse on all things in the beauty space.
Growing up in the Middle-of-Nowhere, VA, Nikita Nguyen always felt disconnected from the fantasy life she wanted to live.
The born-innovator took her theater background, exceptional makeup skills, and the passion of a dragon, to create the internet sensation we know and love today as Nikita Dragun.

Working with top brands like Uber, Google Pixel, Benefit, Nyx, as well as shooting for PAPER magazine and Elle, Nikita has made a real name for herself in the industry.
In 2020, Nikita launched her first makeup line Dragun Beauty.

Inspired by her journey as a trailblazing transgender woman, Dragun Beauty is focused on creating transformational makeup that celebrates people of all ages, races, sizes, genders, and identities.
An activist at heart, Nikita remains a visible part of her community, working with LGBT and Trans Wellness Centers to support diversity and inclusion.
As she continues to cultivate a tight-knit community, Nikita is one step closer to building a formidable empire.

Don’t freak out, these are not the overly plucked brows. Y2K meets 2022 with brows slimmer in width to make the face more lifted and feminine.
Barely there foundation and liquid complexion products will be huge this year. It’s giving no-makeup makeup.
Lip liner is making a huge comeback! I suggest picking a few shades darker and blending throughout with a clear gloss.
From shimmery glitter to colored liners. Minimalism on the face but a dramatic pop on the eye is going to be everywhere.
From your cheeks to your lips, blush is going to be a staple. My favorite is the Dragun Beauty Face Palette blush in BB Girl.
