The first “latte makeup” video I saw was by influencer Steph Hui, who achieved a beautiful warm, softly smokey neutral with a variety of smoldering tans and browns. I couldn’t get enough of it, and since I prefer natural colors, it felt like an upgrade to my normal routine. Obviously, I was totally down with this in terms of TikTok cosmetics trends.
Makeup and nail art inspired by lattes have gone viral in a flash. In case you’ve been wondering how you can get in on the trendiest summer beauty trend, here’s your chance. To help you look as flawless as a latte, we’ve gathered all the tools you need.
1. Face
Monochromatic makeup “synergy,” in my opinion, is the secret to latte-inspired beauty, and a flush of color on the cheek is the best beauty cherry on top. To achieve the dewy, natural look of latte makeup, try a liquid or cream type that blends well into the skin.
2. Lips
The latte makeup trend works best with brownish-pink nude tones and may be achieved with either a powdery matte or glossy finish. There’s lipstick for you, no matter how you take your coffee.
3. Nails
The latte nail trend is real, you guys. Try a coffee-themed gradient or a shade like OPI’s java-inspired shade, which has a cheeky moniker. Thirdly, Olive & June’s Cafe con leché fast French mani uses press-ons to create salon-quality nail art in minutes.
4. Eyes
Whether you’re going for a latte eye with a light wash of neutral brown or going all out with a lid highlight, crease shade, and outer third shade, it’s easy to achieve either. (If you’re really pressed for time, you may also use your preferred powder bronzer as an eyeshadow substitute.)
