A bold red lip and ombré hair color were huge last year. What's poised to become the hottest trend for 2013?

For the longest time, most of us tended to play it pretty safe when it came to beauty. Neutral nails, pink lips, maybe a colorful eyeshadow or pixie cut now and then if we were feeling wacky.
But over the past few seasons, makeup and hair trends have been going bolder. Maybe it's the Lady Gaga/Nicki Minaj effect, but now we've got neon nail art, tangerine lipstick, and sky blue chalk in our hair -- and it's actually looking way better than we may have once thought. And 2013 looks like it's bringing even more outrageous-but-still-wearable trends our way.
Even if you haven't gotten more daring with your look lately, the new trends for 2013 are worth trying. Yes, they're bold -- but they're also totally flattering and easy to pull off for everyone. In fact, we're willing to bet some of these hair and makeup trends will replace your classic cat eye or beachy waves and become your new signature look.

I want to see more of the lavender lips...and I am SO over the bangs fad. I think that if your name is not Zoey Deschanel, stay FAR away from straight cut bangs, because she is pretty much the only human being alive who can pull them off properly.
Fun, fresh list! I already have red hair, but I have been dying to play with the color a little. Lighter shades don't work with my coloring, but I may try some highlights or go with a darker auburn shade (yes, for spring--who cares?).
already rocking the bangs and eyeliner so nice to know i'm up to date on some trends! not sure if i can pull off the lavender lips but LOVE the veronica lake hair and am intrigued to try some highlighter/bronzer...thanks for the tips!
whoever worked on jlo's face didn't mix the bronzer well enough...her forehead is tanned, and the rest of her face is much whiter and shinier...and a darker lipstick (red) would have looked better with her "dress"
Lavender lips? Possibly, but it depends on skintone and the undertone of the lavender itself. It can appear garish rather than trendy. Polished bangs are an easy way to change your hairstyle with little trouble. I like bold eyeshadow, but the color shown is not something I'd wear.
Ew, Lavender lips is the only thing i can say i HATE on this lips. For me it's a huge no no and it will make me look like an ompah lompa so yeah, I don't even like the color on other people, But if they like it i guess... Besides that little thing i absolutely love everything on this list - Especially the red hair, I love red hair lol
I am definitely going to rock the lavender lips trend, the key to not looking crazy is to pair it up with warm lip-liner like MAC's "Spice" or "Hodgepodge" and blend, blend, blend! :)
I'd skip lavander lips, it's more of a dead-person look. Bold eyeshadows can be ok, but not so much for every day wear. I love the polished skin trend, bangs can be cool too. Red hair color is great but not for everyone.
