模糊唇仍是 2026 年的妆容主角：Sarah Pidgeon 在 TIME100 Next 晚会上的柔雾唇

Sarah Pidgeon knows the power of a good beauty signature. For the Love Story star, whose transformation into Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy has made her something of a beauty muse in her own right, that increasingly means a softly blurred lip. And at last night’s TIME100 Next Gala, she stayed committed to 2026’s most romantic makeup trend.

Pidgeon leaned into the Bessette-Kennedy school of minimalism in a navy pinstripe suit, the sharply tailored blazer worn with a knotted tie-neck detail and nothing underneath. Her beauty look, however, was decidedly softer. Hairstylist Bobby Eliot gave her blonde lengths a voluminous, '90s-inflected blowout, with a deep, buttery beige tone, darker shadow roots, and sweeping, face-framing layers that flicked out at the ends.

Makeup artist Emily Cheng worked within Pidgeon’s preferred palette of warm, skin-enhancing neutrals. Her complexion was luminous without being overly dewy, with a delicate apricot-rose flush concentrated high on her cheeks, softly bronzed contours, and a pinpoint sheen across the cheekbones and nose. A wash of muted peachy-brown shadow warmed the lids, while fine, elongated black liner, fluttery lashes, and neatly brushed brows lent definition to her blue eyes.

The finishing touch was a softly smudged, rosewood-toned lip, its edges gently feathered beyond the Cupid’s bow rather than sharply traced. It was offset with a warmer, slightly deeper tint at the center for subtle dimension, and locked in with a plush satin-gloss sheen.

The blurred lip has emerged as one of 2026’s defining beauty looks, offering a welcome reprieve from the hyper-defined, heavily overlined mouths of years past. Makeup artist Nina Park has been instrumental in popularizing the look, with her signature diffused edges and softly rounded Cupid’s bows appearing on everyone from Zoë Kravitz to Emma Stone. Rather than drawing a precise border around the lips, the technique involves buffing pigment outward to create a hazy, almost airbrushed effect.

It’s well suited to Pidgeon’s burgeoning beauty identity, which balances old-school femininity with modern restraint. Her penchant for polished and voluminous hair and luminous skin feels romantic without veering into the overly sweet. Against the masculine lines of her pinstripe tailoring, that deliberately softened mouth offers necessary contrast. With the end of 2026 approaching, Sarah Pidgeon is proving that the blurred lip has plenty of staying power. And sometimes, the best beauty statement is the one that refuses to draw a hard line.
