Her main features that stand out the most to me are her pointy chin and nose, round cheeks, pink kiss shaped lips, and bold dramatic upper eyelashes. Everything else I embellished to my liking.
STEP 1: Prep Your Skin & Apply Concealer
Before any makeup, I always start with clean skin, moisturizer, and primer—it makes a huge difference in how smooth and vibrant everything looks. I also put in my coloured contacts first (trust me, doing it after makeup is much harder and can make eye makeup run if your eyes get watery or irritated).
For the base, I skip foundation and go straight in with light coverage concealer to even things out. Then, I use a full-coverage concealer to hide any spots, brighten key areas like my chin and nose, and even cover my lips (this helps later when reshaping them!).
STEP 2: Contour & Highlight
Peach’s face is soft but sculpted, so contouring is key. I use a contour stick to shape my cheeks, chin, and nose.
For the nose, I:
Draw two long lines down the sides
Add a small circle on the tip
Blend it all out with a sponge for a seamless look
A little extra highlighting concealer helps make the contrast pop even more!
STEP 3: Set Everything with Powder & Add Some Glow
Instead of liquid foundation, I go straight in with a powder foundation to lock in my contour and concealer. This keeps my skin looking fresh and not cakey (but you could also use a translucent setting powder too).
For a royal glow, I apply a shimmery highlighter to the bridge and tip of my nose, plus my chin—this catches the light perfectly.
STEP 4: Blush
I use a bright pink blush on the apples of my cheeks in a circular motion. This gives that cute, rounded effect.
A little extra shimmer highlighter on my cheekbones adds a subtle lift and glow!
STEP 5: Brows That Match the Wig
Since my Peach wig is bright yellow, I use a warm light brown brow product instead of an ash tone. This helps my brows blend naturally with the wig color rather than looking too dark or harsh.
STEP 6: Eyeshadow for Big, Bright Eyes
For that soft, animated eye look, I use:
Medium bright pink in the crease and lower lash line
Light baby pink all over the lid, blending into the crease
Shimmery white shadow on the brow bone and inner corners for extra brightness
This gives a soft, layered pink look that’s perfect for Peach!
STEP 7: Eyeliner & Lashes for That Doll-Like Effect
To make my eyes look bigger and more cartoon-like, I:
✔️ Apply white eyeliner on my lower waterline to open up my eyes
✔️ Use black liquid liner on my upper lash line with a small wing
✔️ Do two coats of mascara for extra volume (I use a primer + black mascara duo)
✔️ Finish with magnetic false lashes—I go for long and full ones to get that exaggerated, princess-y effect
STEP 8: Lipstick
Peach’s lips always have that round, kiss-like look, so here’s how I do it:
💄 Keep the outer corners of my lips concealed to reshape them
💄 Use a bright pink matte lipstick to draw a circular shape in the center
💄 Slightly overdraw my lips to make them look fuller
💄 Dab shimmery lip balm in the center for dimension
STEP 9: The Finishing Touches
Once the makeup is done, I set it with some setting spray (I forgot to mention this step in my video - sorry!), then I pop on my Princess Peach wig, accessories, and costume, and that’s it—I’m officially ready to rule the Mushroom Kingdom! 👑
