Trending Barbiecore Beauty Looks and Products

Barbiecore—a trend that has taken new heights since Barbie the movie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling hit the news—seems to be everywhere, from latex pink mini skirts to hot pink platforms and beyond. Now the aesthetic has found its way to beauty. The look, contrary to what one might think, is a statement on feminism and diversity. The trend embraces people beyond blonde, white, heterosexual and cisgender women, with LGBTQ icons like Lil Nas X and Laverne Cox embracing the pretty in pink aesthetic.

Here we've rounded up the American Salon favorites when it comes to channeling Barbiecore beauty.

Try MAC Powder Blush in Fuchsia for a more bold statement or Pink Swoon for a subtle effect.

MAC Cosmetics artist Fatima Thomas is a big fan of Barbiecore and believes "it’s a clean and balanced look." To get Barbie’s classic look, you must have a clean base with those pops of pink throughout.
