Here’s what’s trending right now in TikTok’s glam galaxy:
Cherry Cola Lips
Move over latte makeup — this summer, we’re sipping on Cherry Cola Lips. This juicy trend involves layering a brown lip liner with a sheer red gloss or stain on top, creating a rich, syrupy pout that’s as delicious-looking as it sounds. Some users are even using actual cola-flavored lip balms for scent accuracy. Sweet and sultry? We’ll take two.
Color Theory Contouring
TikTokers are trading their neutral bronzers for a full-blown rainbow experiment. The idea? Use color theory (yes, that thing you slept through in art class) to cancel out undertones and enhance your features. Think: green contour under the cheekbones to neutralize redness or pink concealer for an ultra-bright under-eye. It looks wild in the process, but the final blended look? Chef’s kiss.
️ “Tattoo” Brows With Felt-Tip Eyeliner
Apparently, brow pencils are too basic now. The trendiest creators are grabbing their felt-tip eyeliner pens (especially those micro-tip ones) and drawing individual brow hairs with scary precision. The effect is semi-permanent-looking brows that don’t budge — even if your willpower does.
“Skin Icing” — Now with a Popsicle Twist
Yes, we’ve been rubbing ice cubes on our faces since 2014, but TikTok has given it a literal glow-up. Users are freezing aloe vera, green tea, or even diluted niacinamide serums into cute little molds (like tiny hearts or popsicles) and massaging them across their faces each morning. It’s part spa, part skincare, part ASMR — and very satisfying to watch.
Fairycore Highlighter
Glazed donut skin is old news — the newest trend is ethereal shimmer, inspired by fairies, elves, and yes, a touch of Euphoria. Think sparkly highlighter dusted on cheekbones, nose bridges, eyelids — anywhere that might catch moonlight in a magical forest. Bonus points for holographic shifts or duochrome colors.
“Doll Blush” Placement
Blush has migrated — again. Instead of sweeping it across the apples or up the temples, TikTokers are dabbing blush in perfect round circles just under the eyes — mimicking vintage porcelain dolls or anime characters. It gives a wide-eyed, innocent look with a hint of quirky cool. Add some faux freckles and you’re golden.
Skincare Slushies
Why apply your skincare when you can freeze it first? The “slushy skincare” trend involves popping your toner or essence into the freezer until it becomes a half-frozen slush, then scooping it out to refresh and depuff. It’s icy, it’s indulgent, and it’s your skin’s version of a brain freeze.
