Let’s be real: summer beauty trends come and go, but this one? She’s sticking around—and she’s bringing the sunshine. Meet Guava Girl Beauty: a makeup mood that’s equal parts juicy, radiant, and totally effortless. Inspired by the vibrant pink-orange flesh of guava fruit (yes, really), this look is like a beach vacation in a makeup bag.
From guava-glazed lips to flushed cheeks and that “I just drank a coconut water” glow, it’s giving tropical, glowy, and main character at golden hour. And the best part? You don’t need to hop on a flight to Tulum to channel your inner Guava Girl—just a few cult-favorite Laura Mercier staples.
Wait—What Is Guava Girl Beauty?
Think of Guava Girl as the cooler, bolder cousin of strawberry makeup. She’s all about warm, punchy pinks, skin that looks like it’s been kissed by humidity (in the best way), and lips that glisten like they’ve just had a sip of guava juice.
But it’s more than a color story—it’s a state of mind. She’s confident. Carefree. She walks into a room and smells like sea salt and sunset. She radiates.
And thanks to Laura Mercier’s skin-first formulas and buildable textures, this trend is super easy to make your own.
Your Step-by-Step Guava Girl Look

Hot tip: Press it in with your fingers for that second-skin finish. Bonus hydration points.
