Rising sign makeup: the trend that blends beauty and astrology Discover what is the must-have product of your rising sign

If you thought astrology was only useful to explain why you keep making the same mistakes in relationships or why Mercury retrograde makes you argue with everyone, TikTok is here to prove you wrong. The latest beauty obsession is rising sign makeup, which means creating looks based on your ascendant. Yes, the one almost no one usually pays attention to.

What is the Rising Sign?

The ascendant, for those who have never opened Co-Star, is the zodiac sign that was rising on the horizon at the moment you were born. In astrology, it represents the first impression you give to others. In short: your cover, your business card, the aura you radiate at first glance, even before you speak. And of course, where else but TikTok could the idea arise to turn all of this into the perfect excuse to invent new makeup looks that embody the energy of your rising sign?

Aries Rising: you’re impulsive and outspoken. Your make-up product? A bold red lipstick that never goes unnoticed, just like you.

Your look wouldn’t be complete without red carpet-worthy lashes: long, black, and dramatic, impossible to ignore. Your must-have is mascara. Sagittarius Rising: free-spirited, optimistic, and always on the move. You need to go all in on bronzer, as if you’ve just returned from the Caribbean, even if your holidays were actually spent in rainy-season India.
