Welcome to the era of 'The Rounded Lip'.
. She strongly agrees that not only anime, but a romanticisation of Japanese culture more broadly, has influenced the rounded lip look, as well as other similar trends. “I 100% believe that Japanese culture has had an influence on the popularity of a more ‘doll-like’ appearance,” she says. “As a Japanese American makeup content creator, I think it’s wonderful that my culture is being appreciated. But note the key word, appreciated.
“Asian hate crimes are on the rise now more than ever, though white creators who appropriate Asian features can wipe off their makeup at the end of the day and even make money off of it.” However Nana clarifies that for the most part, drawing over your cupid’s bow, as well as other similar doll-like trends, is an appreciation, rather than appropriation. “As long as you are not appropriating, you can respect and love J-fashion culture.
The exploration of different worlds and aesthetics — from the doll-like to cosplay, horror and cartoons — exemplifies how theis radically different for Gen Z. Instead of wearing it to accentuate or disguise features , Gen Z are increasingly using makeup as a transformative tool that allows them to showcase entirely different personas.
“I think Gen Z is one of the most expressive generations and makeup is a big part of that. We use it to stand out from others and get away from the “norm” of society. There’s so much you can do with makeup which is why it’s such an amazing thing, people can make themselves look like a completely different person if they wanted to,” Jade explains.
Cartoonish lips — and the rejection of the pointy, hyperrealistic cupid’s bow — seem to be reflective of a new era for Gen Z that falls in line with everything the generation stands for. Creativity, art and expression are finally more important than covering imperfections and caring about how we’re perceived. They also look pretty cute too.
