To the uninitiated, the vernacular endorsed by the beauty industry can feel impossible to grasp. The vocabulary is hyper-specific and context-driven, encompassing terms such as bunny tongue lip gloss and cry baby make-up—a fusion of seemingly disparate terms used to describe a particular hairstyle or eyeshadow look. This phenomenon is likely exacerbated by the recent slew of terminology that has entered the #BeautyTok space: a dizzying array of food-related phrases that sound like they’ve leapt straight off a fresh produce aisle. Everything from glossy, shellacked pouts to deep brown talons have undergone an edible rebrand, acquiring monikers such as tanghulu lips, hot chocolate manicures and cinnamon cookie butter strands. This does, however, beg the question: which food-centric trends are merely fads and what are the ones that are here to stay?

Strawberry girl make-up
The crux of strawberry girl make-up lies in blush. Think prominent bubblegum pink hues applied in a dewy wash over cheeks, paired with dabs of concealer and a scattering of faux freckles.
