Often in beauty trends, they tend to swing from one extreme to the next. Case in point? All the girlies were obsessed with clean girl beauty all summer – slicked-back buns, lip gloss, and glowy skin. Now? You can’t open TikTok without being inundated with the Italian-American Mob Wife Aesthetic. And we are HERE. FOR. IT.
Taking cues from the bold, attitude-laden beauty queens of The Sopranos and My Cousin Vinny, this look is all about excess. Picture mascara for days, smoky eyes that could stop traffic, pouty neutral lips, and everything turned up to eleven. The Mob Wife Aesthetic brings to mind a woman draped in gold jewelry, decked out in leopard print, French tips, and an attitude that only Italian-American New Jersey culture could conjure up.
So, you want to dive headfirst into the world of mob wife makeup? Well, guess what? Morphe has got your back. Sorry, cigarettes not included.
