Beauty’s latest trend, ‘ballet core makeup’ has gracefully pirouetted into the spotlight. Inspired by the whimsical world of ballet, this trend encapsulates the essence of grace, poise, and a touch of fairytale. Here’s how to get the look!
Picture a makeup palette dominated by blush pinks, subtle mauves, muted neutrals and dusty rose golds, reminiscent of the soft hues found in a ballerina’s costume. The aesthetic is characterised by soft, muted tones that evoke a sense of delicacy and sophistication.
Foundation
The ballet core trend places a strong emphasis on achieving a flawless, porcelain-like complexion. Opt for a lightweight foundation that provides coverage without compromising the skin’s natural luminosity. The goal is to create a canvas that appears almost airbrushed, allowing the focus to shift to the eyes and lips.

Eyes
Eyes play a central role in this makeup trend, mirroring the expressiveness of a ballet dancer on stage. Soft, romantic eyeshadows in dusty rose, champagne, and ballet slipper pink are key to achieving the look. Consider incorporating subtle shimmer or satin finishes to add a touch of ethereal glow to your lids. To enhance the eyes further, focus on elongating the lashes with a lengthening mascara or opt for wispy false lashes to evoke the flutter of a ballerina in motion.

Brows
Ballet core brows are refined and structured, yet natural in appearance. Aim for a softly defined arch using a brow pencil or powder in a shade that complements your natural hair colour. Avoid harsh lines, as the goal is to achieve a gentle, balletic arch that frames the eyes without overpowering the overall look.
Cheeks
Blush is a crucial element in the ballet core makeup trend, adding a touch of youthful radiance to the complexion. Opt for soft, rosy hues that mimic the natural flush of a dancer mid-performance. Apply blush to the apples of the cheeks and blend it seamlessly for a seamless, weightless finish.

Lips
For the finishing touch, lips should be adorned with shades that harmonise with the overall softness of the ballet core aesthetic. Think ballet slipper pinks, delicate mauves, and muted roses. Matte or satin finishes work well to maintain the sophistication of the look, and a subtle touch of gloss can be added for a touch of dimension.
