Clean Girl makeup is the new invisible makeup
It's no surprise that glowing, radiant skin made an epic TikTok moment . The "Clean Girl" makeup trend , not to be confused with "clean beauty," is the internet's latest beauty craze that's making everyone feel as though they can easily apply high-end makeup without makeup. Think Zoe Kravitz, Hailey Bieber: minimal makeup, clear eyes, rosy skin, cheeks, glossy lips, and polished must-haves. Beauty trends come and go quickly; However, it's the "clean girl aesthetic" who can confidently say he's here to stay.
Do I need perfect skin to achieve Clean Girl makeup?
What's nice about this trend is that you don't have to have perfect skin, you don't have to have access to the fanciest facialists or makeup artists in your city, you don't need a million dollars in your bank account to get noticed - you don't even need to be a girl. No matter your gender, skin type, skin tone, skin texture, or budget, you too can achieve this simple, super-accessible look in just a few simple steps.
Preparing the skin for Clean Girl makeup
First, let's focus on preparing the skin. It is essential to use moisturizing skin care products to give your skin a glowing base.
The cleaner
Depending on your skin type, I suggest cleansing with a gentle oil-based cleanser. Huangjisoo Pure Perfect Skin Cleansing Oil uses the finest natural and organic ingredients and leaves skin silky smooth with a dewy, radiant glow. Apply the oil to dry hands and face and gently massage into the skin for at least one minute to moisturize and cleanse any impurities.
Serum
Next, I would suggest applying a serum containing vitamin C. Vitamin C helps brighten and even out skin tone, leaving a radiant, glowing base. Azelique Age Refining Vitamin C Facial Serum is a great option to apply after cleansing.
Moisturizer.
For moisturizer, I enjoy Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer , which is a very gentle, lightweight formula that contains hyaluronic acid and ceramides, which helps to hydrate and maintain skin hydration. This moisturizer can be applied day or night.

Next comes minimal makeup application, which is at the heart of the “Clean Girl” aesthetic.
Step one: concealer
Let's start with concealer. You want to strategically apply concealer to any areas that need it. I like to use a small eye shadow brush to precisely apply a creamy concealer like Mad Hippie Ultra Creamy Soft Matte in the inner corners of the eyes (this is where the dark color hides), on the sides and corners of the nose if there is any redness, the center of the forehead and chin if needed, and any blemishes. Others may have discoloration or redness that you want to hide.
After reaching strategic areas with the extra-fine brush, I recommend taking a damp beauty blending sponge, like the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge, to gently buff out hidden areas.
Step 2: Tinted moisturizer
After concealer, you may want to add a light, tinted moisturizer to even out your skin tone. You can use the same sponge you used to blend your concealer to gently apply tinted moisturizer, like this one from LA Girl . This lightweight product has enough coverage, and by adding just one layer to your skin, you leave your skin smoother and more even. Finally, add as much skin covering as you feel works best for you; However, keep in mind that the goal of this is to create a natural, skin-like appearance that does not show that you are wearing makeup.
Step 3: Blush
Glowing, sun-kissed cheeks are key when creating the “Clean Girl Aesthetic” look. I suggest reaching for a cream blush like Mad Hippie Cheek and Lip Tint. The cream blush texture will melt the formula directly into your skin, making it look very natural. I like to apply a few drops of pigment to my cheekbones and even a small amount to my nose to create a nice, subtle “sunny blush” look and make it look like I’ve been playing in the sun all day. Make sure to wash your hands before use because I suggest applying this product with your fingers. The warmth of your fingertips will help the pigment dissolve into your skin, making it easier to blend. You can double up on this product and add a touch of this shade to your eyelids and lips for a soft, subtle glow. (We love a multi-use product!)
If you want to choose a different product for your lips, you can add a swipe of Peripera Ink Airy Velvet Lip Tints! Gently press this lip color with your ring finger, and apply it to your lips to create a softer, more diffused look, and remember that it does not have to be perfect. We accept flaws! Finally, to add a glow factor to your curls, you can apply a finishing touch with Clear Shine for a beautifully shiny complexion.
Step 4: Eyelashes
Lift those lashes to the sky above with an eyelash curler. Curling your eyelashes can open and lift your eyes almost instantly, making your eyes appear larger, more awake and brighter. Mad Hippie Black mascara contains peptides that help support the look of long, full lashes. The formula is silky and black but leaves a natural finish on the lashes.
Step 5: Eyebrows
Tie it all together by framing your face with fluffy brows. LA offers Girl A pure brow gel that adds natural definition to brows. This gel sets, defines and holds brows in place without feeling sticky or stiff. The main goal in this step is to clean the eyebrows and lift them in an upward and diagonal motion to groom the eyebrows and tip them upwards, while maintaining the natural shape. Use light pressure to gently brush the end of the brows in a diagonal motion to help create a raised eye effect.
Step Six: Hair
As an added bonus, style your hair back for a sleek look. Tame your hair by combing your hair back into a ponytail or bun. My top secret tip is to use this method right before washing hair day. A little natural grease never disappoints. If you're feeling fresh, take it a step further and add a little hair oil, serum, or hair mask like Sky Organics Organic Castor Oil, before styling your hair back to soften and moisturize the ends.
You can use a product like Cococare Argan Hair Serum , which is rich in Vitamin E. It helps keep hair moisturized and silky soft.
Clean Girl makeup is the new invisible makeup
What we love most about this trend that's quickly taken over social media is how minimal it really is. Throw a few products you might already have in your beauty kit into your bag, and you're on your way to conquering the day, feeling fresh and confident.
Remember: At the end of the day, “Clean Girl” makeup can mean whatever is best and most authentic to you. There's never a right or wrong way to apply makeup: it's what works best for you and embrace how it makes you feel.
