Skin care, at-home haircuts and celebrity style ruled the year’s top-trending fashion and beauty searches, according to Google.

The company released today its annual “Year in Search” report, outlining the search items that sustained the highest spikes in traffic for a period of time in 2020. The report, which draws from trillions of queries, includes data on the top-trending searches within fashion and beauty. Among them are questions on building a skin-care routine, how to dermaplane, indie style and Noah Cyrus’ outfits.

Last year’s “Year in Search” pointed to a collective interest in makeup trends such as fake eyelashes, blush and liquid foundation. Beauty YouTuber James Charles was one of the top-trending searches that year.

This year’s data stands in stark contrast, reflecting beauty’s shift to skin care and DIY as the COVID-19 pandemic brought about a greater focus on at-home self-care rituals.

VSCO girl, e-girl and e-boy style were among last year’s top-trending fashion searches, with Billie Eilish, Audrey Hepburn and Ariana Grande leading celebrity style queries. In 2020, fashion queries leaned nostalgic, with users most curious about Eighties, retro and Early Aughts style.

Below, WWD highlights the top-trending searches in fashion and beauty from this year’s “Year in Search” Google report, which can be viewed in its entirety here.
