Baby Pink Makeup: The New Trend For Every Step Of Your Routine

If you've been thinking pink lately, you are not alone; in fact, you just may be a trend forecaster. While we've spent years scouring Poshmark for a dupe of Baby's pink "Dirty Dancing" dress and are drooling over Margot Robbie's wardrobe from the upcoming "Barbie" movie, the latest form this iconic color is taking isn't about our clothes. This time, pink is showing up on our faces instead of in our closets. Pink made Elle Woods a star and changed Wednesdays forever thanks to the plastics, but these days, we're ready for pink to take over our makeup routines.

From Lily James to Gigi Hadid, the fashion icons of the world have recently made it known that baby pink eyeshadow is in. A spring never goes by when the most fashionable among us aren't rocking our fresh pastels. So, as we usher in the warmer weather, it's time to update our makeup looks with this year's pastel of choice. While eyes may be the most common place on your face to sport baby pink, this trend is affecting everything from lips to blush and even our eyeliner. So, if you're ready to hop on the baby pink makeup trend, rest assured that there are way more ways than one to make this trend your own. We've got all the best baby pink makeup looks, whether you want to live out your Barbiecore dreams or simply add an on-trend twist to your everyday look. 

While we love a bold bubblegum pink makeup moment, incorporating pink into your beauty routine doesn't mean you have to look like Barbie to make it work. Baby pink is close to neutral with a bit of extra pigment. We love a full face of makeup that looks mostly neutral but adds a little bit of spice with pops of pink. To master this style yourself, start with your normal, neutral, everyday skincare and base makeup look. Dab a matte light pink eyeshadow all around both the upper and lower lash lines, and finish with light pink matte lips. 

The palette of a smokey eye is browns, greys, and blacks. But, with the rise of pink in the beauty world, we're all about a smokey eye that swaps out neutral colors for bold shades of pink. This eye makeup technique calls for a light, shimmery pink in the inner corners of the eyes, as well as swept across the lids. Blend a matte hot pink shadow into the crease and above before blending black shadow in and around the upper and lower lash lines. This BEUSELF DE'LANCI Pink Eyeshadow Palette has all the colors you'll need.

Blush is one of the best makeup tools to keep you looking fresh and vibrant. Still, while most folks include blush in their makeup routines, it's seldom the star of the show. That's what we love so much about this look; blush is your face's focal point here. The Kaja Multi-Eye & Cheek Color is a liquid pigment that's both a blush and an eyeshadow. Apply it to the apples of your cheeks and continue onto the eyelids before blending with a brush or sponge. Keep the rest of your makeup simple, and finish with pink lipstick. 

You don't need to go full "Euphoria" makeup to incorporate glitter into your look. We all love a little sparkle, and a baby pink eye paired with silver glitter in your crease is a delicate and pretty way of adding a bit of oomph to your baby pink makeup look. Paired with a neutral lip and some subtle blush, this style lets us live out our fairy princess dreams in a way that's subtle and sweet. Don't be afraid to swap out the silver glitter for gold or pink for an equally cool twist. 

Love the idea of an unusual eyeliner shade but think that pink liner with pink eyeshadow will be a pink overload? We've got the solution for you: white eyeliner. White eyeliner really makes a pink eye look pop. You can use it to outline your black wing, like the pink liner look called for, or you can use it to create a bold cut crease. We recommend the NYX Professional Epic Wear Liquid Liner in white. Add it to an eye look with shades of shimmery pink eye shadow, and pair it with a pink matte lip. 

Pink tones of blush, eyeshadow, and lip color are all great choices, so why not match all three? A match-y match-y makeup look may seem like too much. When done in a shade like pink, however, it works beautifully. You get a congruous, all-over makeup technique without looking like your makeup is way over-the-top, like it could with some other colors. The Revlon ColorStay Day to Night Eyeshadow Quad in the shade 'Pretty' is a great option for blending. Pair it with a light pink lip, like the URBAN DECAY Vice Lip Bond in the shade 'Cuffed Up.' 

If you like makeup, then you know how to create a classic style with a cat eye and a neutral lip. Consequently, you've got the skills to take this look to the next level: the baby pink version. This pink update on a simple look is classic and chic. You'll need a pretty matte pink eyeshadow, like the Sephora Collection Colorful Eyeshadow in the color, 'Strawberry Macaroon.' Add a subtle pink blush to the apples of your cheeks and a light pink slightly glossy lip, like the L'Oreal Paris Glow Paradise Hydrating Balm-in-Lipstick shade 'Pastel Exaltation'.
