The Biggest Beauty Trends Of Millennials And Gen Z – Which Team Do You Pick?

There’s more than one giveaway when it comes to spotting a millennial in a crowd. Sometimes, it is their side-parting, sometimes their skinny jeans, or sometimes it is their habit of using the smiley emojis excessively.

And how do you spot a Gen Z? Well, it is their typical crop tops, or their resin rings, or the fact that they can instantly ‘woah clap’ the moment a TikTok clip pops up!

Pinterest shows that the battle lines are drawn, and thanks to Pinterest’s ability to drive a user towards a specific age range driven by their searches – they can help us find the right beauty habits.
