Pastel pinks, lace, bows, and blush galore, the coquette beauty trend has been taking over recently. It-girls Hailey Bieber, Lily-Rose Depp, and Olivia Rodrigo all are rocking the new trend, and if you’ve been on TikTok in the past month, you could not have missed the #coquettemakeup look which has garnered over 100 million views.
The term “coquette” is French for female flirtation, and that definitely shines through this look, which is playful, pretty and very feminine.
Mrs. Bieber shared some selfies on Instagram with this off-duty ballerina beauty look. The 26-year-old model sports a baby-pink eyeliner and glowing pink blush draped across her cheeks, captioning the post with bow emojis.
Ceryn Lawless from online beauty retailer Escentual.com has said: “The coquette aesthetic pairs playful pink makeup hues with accessories like bows and pearls. Coquette makeup is the latest trend taking social media by storm. Many celebrities like Hailey Bieber and Olivia Rodrigo have been seen trying out the ultra-feminine look. You don’t need a Hailey-Bieber-budget to pull of this look successfully though. From a rosy blush to pink eyeliner, we have compiled a list of beauty must-haves that are essential in every coquette-girl’s makeup bag under £25.”
