THE TOP TRENDING COFFEE INSPIRED MAKE UP LOOKS
Just as addictive as your daily caffeine fix, TikTok’s
So, with that in mind here at Cult Beauty, we’ve rounded up the TikTok’s top trending coffee inspired make up looks, that you can replicate from the comfort of your own home – mug in hand, of course…
LATTE MAKE UP
How to create the latte make up look
Start by applying your go-to base product on clean skin – whether that be a sheer foundation or skin tint. Next, use a cream or powder bronzer to highlight the areas of your face where the sun would naturally hit— we’re talking cheekbones, forehead, bridge of the nose and décolletage. And, as we are creating the ultimate latte make up look, skip blush altogether, we say. For the eyes, the key is to follow the same neutral palette that you used for your base. Layer shimmery eyeshadow sticks with other shadows and blend together to the creases of your lids, before highlighting under your brow bone. Then, to achieve a cohesive monochrome look, sweep your bronzer onto your lids and finish with a swipe of brown, smudged eyeliner on the upper lash line. Lastly, enhance your pout with a nude lip. Pick neutral tones that match the rest of the face and layer with a clear, juicy gloss.

VANILA MAKE UP
Bringing a whole new meaning to the word ‘vanilla’, vanilla make up is far from boring. Natural and neutral, it takes clean aesthetics to the next level. Leaning into luxe minimalism, this trend is renowned for being fuss free while celebrating the simpler shades found in our beauty bags. Keeping your look fresh, it focuses on sheeny skin with sheer swipes of colours across your eyes, lip

When it comes to vanilla make up, healthy looking skin is key. With that in mind, prep your skin with an ultra-hydrating moisturiser and primer. Once dry, focus on your base. Apply and blend your BB cream all over your face for a barely-there finish. Then, use your concealer for extra coverage where wanted. Next, with a bronzing stick, apply pigment on the apples of your cheek and blur using a blending make up sponge. Then, enhance your look with a flushed glow by dabbing dots of blusher and highlighter on your cheeks and blending them together. For your finishing touches, curl and coat your lashes with mascara, add a clear, shiny gloss to your lips and don’t forget to spritz your face with setting spray to allow your look to last all day.

ESPRESSO MAKE UP
Aptly named after the stronger (and some may say, more flavoursome) beverage, espresso make up gives you a deeper, darker and more dramatic finish compared to the other coffee inspired beauty trends
How to create the espresso make up look
For this look you need to create a demi-matte base. Use your go-to skin tint before focusing on contouring your face with creamy formulas and shimmering bronzers. To add emphasis onto your eyes, take your face powder and pat it under your eyes and around your T-zone. To set your base apply a dusting of setting powder all over. Next, move onto your eyes by taking a brown pencil and colouring in half of your lid from your lower lash line. Then, blend the pigment to your lower lids to create a smudged finish. Then, blur a cocoa eyeshadow from your lid to your brow bone, adding a subtle colour. Using a black liner, create a flick at the end of your eye and smudge it outwards. Finally, fill in your waterline and add as much mascara as desired.
PUMPKIN SPICE MAKE UP
Pumpkin spice make up isn’t just for autumn. Hear us out… If you could order pumpkin-spice lattes all year round, you would, right? So, why not let this be true for your beauty look? Characterised by its earthy hues (think cinnamon, terracotta and burnt orange), the trend essentially means you’re matching your eyeshadows and lip liners with your bronzers and highlighters. Just like the drink, the finish product is warm, smooth and
How to create the pumpkin spice look
Apply your base make up by using a tinted moisturiser for light coverage and a creamy contour kit for added definition. Then, use a neutral beige or terracotta blush on the apples of your cheeks to achieve a monochrome effect. Now, it’s time to move onto your eyes. Using either a light or dark orange with an auburn base, buff out your eyeshadow along your creases with a fluffy eyeshadow brush. Then, using a precision brush, smudge out the blend along your lower lash line too. To finish the look, apply your favourite a subtle pink or neutral nude lip liner and lipstick duo.

MATCHA EYES
Moving away from the typical brown tones associated with coffee inspired make up, matcha eyes focuses on the colour (you guessed it) green. Pairing perfectly with fluffy brows, glass skin and glossy lips, it’s a great way to switch up your everyday look. And since the focus is all on your peepers, it’s important to not to go OTT with the rest of your face. Our advice? Complement them with natural lips, subtly flushed cheeks and a barley-there canvas.
How to create the match eyes look
Start by keeping your complexion dewy and natural looking. To do this swap your foundation for a tinted moisturiser and add coverage only where, or if, needed. Next, apply a creamy bronzer and liquid blush on your cheeks in a neutral pink shade for added depth and dimension. Then, focusing on your arches, use a tinted or clear brow gel to shape and create a fluffy, natural look. And now for the main event – the eyes. Before applying your pigment prep your peepers by adding your eye primer. On your lids, pat on your chosen green shade, then blend it out to your creases with an eyeshadow brush using a neutral shade. Under the lower lashes, select a lighter green shadow to sweep on and add a pop of highlight at the inner corners of your eyes. To finish off, lift your lashes with a few swipes of mascara.
