If you’ve been on social media in the last month, you’ve likely heard talk of the “unrecognizable” makeup trend in many viral videos.
The overall goal of this trend is to transform your face with makeup so beautifully that you become an unrecognizable version of yourself compared to the bare face you started with.
Fans of the clean girl aesthetic, it’s time to move on. This trend is all about a dramatic transformation that maximizes your natural features and requires more than just a few makeup products.
You might be wondering how to wear the unrecognizable makeup trend. First of all, you don’t have to be a makeup artist to nail the look—you just need the right tools. Lucky for you, our shopping experts have rounded up the beauty essentials you’ll need below.
It’s winter, so your skin might be a few shades lighter than when you feel your hottest. That means you’ll need to start by crafting the look of warm, glowing skin.
Ditch the skin tint—you’ll need a full-coverage foundation for an even base, contour for a snatched nose and chiseled cheekbones, a sunny bronzer, and a popping highlighter.
The focal point of this glam look is black eyeliner, preferably worn on your waterline. Add mascara and lashes for the flirtiest possible eye look.
Finish off the look with a bold lip or a glossy nude, and don’t forget to set everything in place with a long-lasting setting spray.
The best part? This trend is all about transformation, so have fun experimenting and creating your own version of the unrecognizable makeup look below.
