What Is Barbiecore?
Following the recent popularity around all things Barbie — Barbiecore is a fashion, beauty and lifestyle trend that is inspired by the classic Barbie doll and recent film. It can be described as s use of classic bright pink, red or sparkles in outfits, nails and makeup and a trend toward Barbie Blonde or even pink hair color trends. When it comes to styling, just like the many looks of Barbie, this can encapsulate almost anything, but tends to be feminine and romantic and accessories are always favored.

A Bright Pop of Lipstick
While pink might be the signature Barbie lip color, we love the idea of a bright pop or pink, coral, or any other shade you find that suits your skin tone and style. If you want to rock the Barbiecore pink lipstick trend, reach for a lip liner first to create the perfect doll-like shape and then follow with your desired shade.
