The year has kicked off with some stunning beauty trends, from statement eyeliner to bright lipsticks. A-list stars showed off the latest looks on the red carpets at the Golden Globes and the Critics' Choice Awards, with fans quickly discussing their flawless make-up on social media.

Key beauty trends from 2017 have carried over into with 2018, with the natural look still making a big impact with the odd splash of colour.

Here we see actress Margot Robbie showing how to carry off the year's key trend of bold, black eyeliner. The actress rocked the statement look, which stood out beside her clear complexions and nude lips.
