Makeup trends often draw inspiration from art, fashion, and culture. TikTok’s latest obsession is Turkish delight makeup inspired by Turkish actress Turkan Soray. The makeup trend is a beautiful blend of traditional Turkish aesthetics and modern beauty standards, characterised by soft, natural colours and textures creating an effortless charm.
Popular beauty influencer Mirta Miler was among the first creators to recreate the now-viral Turkish-inspired makeup trend, which garnered 6.2 million views on her video. To complete the look, Mirta dyed her hair a dark brown. She also added her own twist by finishing the video with a bite of Turkish delight—a sweet, fragrant jelly confection traditionally flavored with rosewater and dusted with icing sugar. As the trend spread across TikTok, it sparked a wave of creativity within the beauty community, inspiring others to experiment with the look.
