14th December 2016 was a good day for Instagram users. Why? Because that was the day the app added a "Saved" section to every profile, instantly giving all of us the ability to secretly catalogue any post.
For beauty lovers, this was big. Gone were the days of screenshotting a notable makeup look or palette to buy, only to lose it in the mess of photos in our camera roll. Now, if we spy something we love, we can simply click "save" and add it to our private vault of inspiration images.
That being said, there's no denying the fact that inspiration can be hard to find when you're inundated with hundreds — nay, thousands — of images daily. That's why we decided to share the photos we've archived in the past month. Hopefully, it'll get your creative juices flowing for the next. Ahead, check out 30 looks to try this June.

The only thing better than a beaming opalescent highlighter is Insta-worthy natural light to wear it in.
Even without the diamond jewellery, a post-vacation glow and brick-red lip still look like a million bucks.

Instead of using a holographic shadow, makeup artist Priscilla Ono went for a vibrant matte orange pigment tapped on the inner corners of model Tashi Rodriguez's eyes. Needless to say, it's extra in all the right ways.
