Temporary And Permanent Fake Freckles Is The Beauty Hack Spinning The Block (VIDEOS)
Fake freckles are the beauty hack thatâs spinning the block, especially in these TikTok streets! Platform users are sharing ways how to achieve the perfect freckled face. And the RANGE is endless, from using a broccoli stalk to going under a tattoo gun.
On Wednesday (Jan. 24), The Shade Room reposted a viral clip of a few women showing off their tatted freckles. It appears they filmed their clips right after the tattoo process was finished. As expected, the fake freckles appeared to be red and inflamed.
Still, the ladies seemed happy with their results! Each of them offered some sort of a smile in the clip.
See the results for yourself below.
Meanwhile, in the comment section, the roommates offered their feedback on the look.
Roomies like @oh_she_badd88 suggested showing âa healed version instead of everyone fresh off the table.â Â
@laiinix wrote, âlooks like bedbugs having a meeting.â
@indeasepensable added, âLord, I thought monkeypox was back, Lol.âÂ
@cuebanks wrote, âTattooing skin imperfection is crazy.âÂ
Meanwhile, beauty influencer Abigail Jones (@abis_skicare) went viral earlier this month for filming a fake freckles how-to video using a piece of broccoli.
Peep her method below.

This Same Trend Had TikTok In A Chokehold Last Year
For context, fake freckles âlike everything in fashion and beauty â made a heavy comeback between May and September of last year. Theyâre just having another moment in the spotlight now.
Last August, beauty influencer Kayla Caputo (@kay_caputo)Â racked up 4 million views on a clip showing how she places her freckles using makeup.
Some of its 1,135 comments appreciated the breakdown. While others reminded Kayla (and other beauty influencers) that freckles used to be the cause of bullying for people with real ones.
Sarah Casillas wrote, âI love how freckles are a trend now. I was bullied my whole life for them.âÂ
Song added, âEvery single video on a fake freckles trend has millions of comments from ppl who have real freckles and itâs so annoying to me bc this video clearly.â
Jillianm added, âWhen you have real freckles and was bullied your whole life for them, and now itâs a trend and get asked where you get your freckles tattooed đđâ
Laceeeeee claimed to be an âestheticianâ who âhatesâ the trend, adding that, â⊠pigmentation in the skin is a sign of unhealthy skin.â
Ultimately though, even some people who were bullied, credited the girlies pulling off the freckled look.

Aht Aht! Black Influencers Previously Tried Fake Freckles Too
The âmind our businessâ jokes were rolling among the roommates in TSRâs comment section.
âyourfav_a**hole wrote, âMind yâall business Black folks this ainât got nothing to do w us.â While @sua_ve added, âYâall notice what color you donât see up here.âÂ
So, @sua_ve is correct that no Black women appeared in the tatted clip. But during that popping time period last year, the girlies across the board were eating up the beauty hack.
And Black influencers stepped in with the missing brown-skin representation in the viral trend.
Keep scrolling to see how they showed up and out!

Iâd give this a 5/10 for brown skin girlies! The vision is there and i do need to practice more with the application and the way i would do my make up with it! But if ur trying to achieve a summer glowing sunkissed look, i think this could help achieve that with the right application of both product & makeup! Is this a NEED? No but would it be cute every now and again? Sure. However $25 is a lot to spend for only occassional use. If youâd use this more frequently then i think that could justify the price. #fauxfreckles #fauxfreckle #freckles #freckletutorial #maryliascottcosmetics #waterprooffreckles #frecklesblackgirl #fauxfrecklehack
