In 2015, we had a specific appreciation for brightly colored pit hair -- a trend that surfaced among young feminists taking a stance against unrealistic expectations of female body hair.

We saw YouTube influencers go electric blue; we saw Miley Cyrus go hot pink. And while we are totally on-board with taking ownership of your own body, it's hard to see this trend living past 2015.

It's already enough work maintaining the hair color on our heads -- next year, we think women will go the "lived-in" route with their pits, too.

Duck lips, trout pout -- whatever you want to call it, makeup artists say that an overlined, blown-up pucker is on its way out. "Like brows, your lips need to be in balance with all of your other facial features," says Alva.

There are oh-so-many problems with over-lining your lips: First, it's tricky to pull off in a way that doesn't look completely fake. Then, even if you do, an augmented pout can make your face look fuller.

"It's a vicious cycle," says celebrity makeup artist Shalini Vadhera. "Big lips make your face look fat, so then you contour like crazy." In the end, you wind up looking like a poorly executed Kylie Jenner (the one who popularized the whole over-injected, over-lined look in the first place).

Now that the novelty has subsided a bit and trends are leaning more au naturel, we can expect to see softer puckers in 2016.

This trend had a major moment in 2014, and beauty experts had high hopes it would fizzle by this year. "But alas, these came back with a vengeance -- longer and sharper than before," Shteysel reports.

Trend forecasters agree that two years has been a long enough reign for these claw-like manis. In 2016, less will finally be more. "Nudes and greys in a classic short, square shape are more modern, not to mention practical," says Shteysel.

We've seen overdone smoky eyes and black lipstick on everyone from Selena Gomez and Rihanna to models on Fashion Week runways. And you know what happens when celebrities and supermodels rock a look -- everyone starts wearing it in their everyday lives.

But gothic, witchy makeup can be too overwhelming for many faces -- and most situations, says Vadhera. Jet-black lips on casual Friday at the office? A little costumey. While heavy smoked-out eyes and lips are fun for special occasions, for everyday, this beauty trend is best left in 2015.

For shame! We were totally on the clumpy lash train in 2015, but according to the trend forecast, it's time to get off.

Twiggy-esque lashes rose to popularity this year thanks to runway looks and a slew of new clumpy lash mascaras. Of course, not everyone was on board -- Jessica Alba and Kylie Jenner have both openly expressed distaste for the spidery look.

The clumpy lash trend hit its peak over the summer, and as the year has gone by, we've seen less and less of it. By 2016, clumpy lashes will join frosted lipstick and orange self-tanner in the graveyard of departed beauty trends.
