I love BeautyTok trends. I mean, how often have you been able to pass off excessive redness from over-exfoliation as a “cold girl” look or a “sunburn” blush? Incredible content! Honestly, it can be a little confusing to know where to start, as TikTok is full of estheticians, makeup artists, hairstylists, and dermatologists offering great advice and inspiration. So, like Carrie Bradshaw, I couldn’t help but wonder if astrology might be the key.
Whether you want to start a new skincare routine or force yourself to use products you bought on a whim (looking at you, Gemini), relying on your zodiac sign can help you set your beauty goals for the week ahead. Masu.
Inspired by this week’s horoscope from Bustle astrology columnist Alexandria Lettman, here are my suggestions for how to honor your birth chart and your bathroom cabinet. Be sure to check both your Sun sign and Rising sign.
Aries (March 21st to April 19th)
Try to establish a consistent morning skin care routine, even if it’s really simple.
Beauty Pick: Rhode’s Daily Cleanser.
Taurus (April 20th – May 20th)
If you’re battling seasonal allergies, stop wearing makeup.

There’s never been a better time to use a palette you bought because it’s cute.
