TikTok’s Cold Girl Makeup Trend Is A Perfect Match For Cosy Season

The main player in the cold girl makeup look is blush. You want to enhance your natural flush in a way that looks like you’ve spent the entire day skiing on the slopes – après-ski, anyone? Don’t be shy and generously apply blush to the apples of your cheeks in an upwards motion towards the ends of your brows for a lifting effect. Add a touch of blush to the tip of your nose to really give that chillkissed look as if you’ve been outside in the cold.

Next up is frostbitten lips – a must for a true cold girl look. Apply a cherry-toned or true red lipstick in the centre of your lips and blend outward, diffusing the edges with your finger. Add a touch of clear lip gloss over the top to emphasise your pout. 

The final step to get the look is shimmer. Don’t worry, we’re not talking about Edward Cullen in Twighlight-type shimmer, but just adding a hint of a silver-toned highlighter or shimmery eyeshadow on the tip of your nose, your eyelids, the inner corners of your eyes and your brow bone to fully frost yourself.  

Now that you’re ready for the change in temperature – or at least your makeup is – complete your cold girl aesthetic with cosy autumn-winter essentials like soft knits, beanies and cardigans.
