Whether you’re an amateur Instagram user or you spend most of your day scrolling through your feed, you’ve most likely come across confident, stylish women who embody the “baddie” aesthetic. They flaunt trendy makeup looks, they sport fashionable outfits, have impeccable hair, and, most importantly, they ooze confidence.
If you want to nail the Instagram baddie aesthetic on your own feed, read on to discover the five steps you need to follow.
1. Rock a Crop Top
While most of the baddie Instagram look comes from hair and makeup, the perfect outfit also plays a big role. When it comes to Instagram baddie outfits, chic and effortless are two things to keep in mind, and crop tops are a must-have for any baddie wardrobe. You’ll get bonus points (and bonus likes) if your crop top matches the bottom — coordinated sets are most definitely IN.
Go for a fun and back-in-style tie-dye pattern for your set, or explore a more neutral shade that allows you to accessorize the look with jewelry, sunglasses, and shoes.
2. Flawless Eyebrows
While thin, sparse brows might have been all the rage in the ’90s, these days, full, defined eyebrows are a must for Instagram baddies. When you’re going after this look, make sure you create sharp outlines and fill in any sparse areas.
If you’re doing so in real life, you’ll want to use an eyebrow pencil, gel, pomade, or pressed powder. If you take a picture that calls for a little extra zhoosh in the eyebrow department, turn to the YouCam Makeup app!
Start by tapping “Photo Makeup” and then uploading the photo that needs editing. Navigate to “Makeup” and then “Eye” at the bottom of your screen. Scroll to “Eyebrows” and try out the various products available in the app.
You can try multiple shapes and shades in real-time to find the one that suits you best, and if you find one you simply can’t live without, you can purchase the real product in just a few taps. >>Download FREE YouCam Makeup app & Try!
3. Bold Hair Color
Another quintessential part of being an Instagram baddie is bold hair. All eyes will be on you with vibrant, eye-catching hair color. Don’t be afraid to go for something bold and unconventional to achieve that Instagram baddie aesthetic, like baby pink, bright blue, or purple.
Trying different hair colors can be a chore, and if you can’t decide which hair color to choose, the YouCam Makeup app can help. You can try a rainbow of hair color options in real-time to see which one looks best before actually dyeing your hair! Furthermore, you’ll know what product looks best on you so you know which one to go out and purchase when you’re ready to make the hair color leap in real life. >>Download FREE YouCam Makeup app & Try!
4. Signature Lips
Lip shape and color can make a big impact on your Insta baddie aesthetic. To get the baddie look right, go for a nude, maroon, plum, or mauve lipstick with matte coverage.
If you choose a nude lip color, make sure the shade closely matches your skin tone. You’ll also want to overline your lipstick so your lips look full. Trying multiple colors until you find the right one can be time-consuming and expensive, so take advantage of the hundreds of options available in the YouCam Makeup app to discover your perfect shade.

5. Contour
Instagram baddies don’t leave their house without contouring their faces to achieve perfectly sculpted, defined features. Many of us don’t even know where to begin with this makeup trend and can end up spending hours practicing, only to end up looking like a clown.
Instead of going down that road, go with these tips. Use a contour shade a couple of shades darker than your skin tone and blend well. Still not sure how to do it? Use the YouCam Makeup app to master contouring skills and find contour shades and patterns suitable for your facial features. >>Download FREE YouCam Makeup app & Try!
