TikTok has spoken: Turkish Delight makeup is the latest beauty obsession, and we’re completely entranced. Inspired by the captivating glamour of Middle Eastern beauty, this trend is all about sharp, lifted eyes, sculpted cheekbones, and a sultry, soft-matte finish. It’s effortlessly chic, endlessly alluring, and perfect for anyone looking to add a seductive edge to their routine. While mastering the signature elongated cat eye may take some finesse, the result is pure, smoldering perfection. If you’re ready to tap into Old Hollywood meets Turkish mystique, we’ve got the full breakdown on achieving the look.
For a flawless, sculpted finish, start with a creamy concealer under the eyes and blend it with a makeup sponge. Next, use a cool-toned contour stick to define the hollows of the cheekbones and the area between the outer corner of the eye and forehead, creating a lifted effect. Lightly sweep a soft blush onto the cheeks for a subtle flush of color before moving on to the eyes.
To enhance the natural lift of your features, precisely shape and define your eyebrows. Set your eyes with a matte ivory eyeshadow, working it as the base, then add warmth and dimension with a matte brown shade in the crease. For the signature sharp cat eye of the Turkish Delight makeup, use a gel eyeliner pot like the Anastasia Beverly Hills Creme liner and an angled brush. Start by extending the wing outward for a sleek, elongated look. Connect the liner to the lower lash line for added drama. Finally, curl your lashes and apply a generous coat of black mascara to both the upper and lower lashes for a bold, eye-opening finish.
Finish the look with a soft, nude lipstick or a sheer gloss, letting the eyes remain the star of this Turkish delight makeup look.
